Bulkpaq suck in a big way. Very light write surface. If u get em to work then u must be lucky an have very good laser but they will shorten yr lasers life in a big way. I started off with these. Initially they worked fine but with games where the laser is jumpin around the disc a lot (GTA Vice) they struggle in a big way an I was fed up with coasters.

If u looking for cheap dvd-r try Clonedisc (ritek dye) or ritek silver top. If u wanna spend a bit more an treat yr ps2 better get Verbatim (not inkjet printable ones!), Ritek branded, Traxdata or DVDMaster. All these use dark purple dye an work perfectly.

Yeah, we all tried to save a few quid an get cheap dvd-r but in the long run it ain't worth it as half of em end up as coasters an ur ps2 is shot away in a year rather than several years.
