do i use dvd-r or dvd+r for ps2 games?
 

I have the hp dvd200i burner which only burns dvd+R and dvd+rw. Can i use the dvd+r's for copying ps2 games?

:confused:

It depends on what version PS2 you have....

If you have a V1-V4 then they may not work...

If you have a V5 or above then you should be fine...

If you don't know the version of your PS2, you can check here

i have version 1 and i'm using the gameshark 2 swap trick. does anyone know if dvd+r will work?

That's your problem. Only in extremely rare cases will a v1 play +r media. I suggest selling your v1 and buying a new PS2.
