I have tried them twice. Several problems with them:

Firstly the ps2 doesn't like reading constant streaming games like GTA Vice or TS2 from silvery purple write surfaces.

I backed up time splitters 2 at both 2X and 1X and both of them read back in at about a quarter of the speed of the original.

Also put Simpsons road rage and crashed.

GTA Vice froze up after about 30 seconds of playing.

Secondly they r the only type of media ever to crap out in mid burn. 3 of them, all on the same image, all at different places.

Dropped in a ritek straight after and burned the same image first time onto it.

Now, am I using the wrong verbatim dvd-r???

I was using 2X verbatim at £3 a disc.
www.blankdiscshop.co.uk
verbatim inkjet printable 2x i used many thes in there day when they were £3+ each,still booting fine now,only £1.60 a disk now in jewel case

they also do a new verbatim disk on a spindle 25,new brand made by diff manufacturer not tried these yet

ritek g03 or traxdata are my chioce still
