Shortdawg - its nice to meet an0ther cainine in the game.....
You need a program to patch the game, if you are going to backup the best program is Clonecd there are only limited writer that will work with it... if your writer is not compatible the combo to use is get the image unto your HD. then use a patch convertor program like ppf-o-matic to apply the patch to the image file.... Then use CDRWin to burn it to CD...
You need to have you playstation 2 chipped..
PS Its only legal to backup games if you are the owner of the origional
But you knew that anyway, right
www.megagames.com have different bits of advice and links. you can download ppf-o-matic, patches, and burn programs from there
K?
