yeah i have a hard time finding the old verbatim's myself

. I been using TDK lately. There not nearly as good as the old Verbatim data life plus but they seem to work ok. I also use the Verbatim dvd+r DL media. Depending on your modchip you can now backup GOW and GT4 to +DL media and load it No problem. Team Toxic also released a patcher so that a patched image will work on most older no-swap chips when burnt to DL media.
