Does this info Apply to just No MOD on V5,6 boards? What about NEO2.2/USB Mod users?
And V4 boards?
I'm sure most of you know by now that BLUE CD's (regular CD format games) USUALLY
make more noise than DVD games. I tried Crash Bandicoot WOC, made lots of noise,
the CDR backup made just as much noise, they played the same.
I've made a few DVD rips, and of course the CDR's make much more noise than the
DVD originals, for the most part the RIPS sound like Blue CD format games. Some
make a extraordinary amount of noise, such as GTA3. Is the TOC messing up the GTA3
rip and all the noise because the PS2 is freaked out cuz it thinks it's a DVD...
OR has GTA3 simply been coded specifically for DVD format, resulting in so much
noise on CD format?
I think it is the game itself and how it loads the levels. It was designed to
load from a DVD at DVD speeds and it has nothing to do with the TOC because my
RIP is 560MB. Some other interesting RIPS: Tony Hawk 3,674MB Jak and daxter,
1.3 GIG on a 650MB CD! (They modified the TOC to repeat files!) These games
play just as good as Original BLUE games with my V4/NEOKEY.
Is this bad for your laser, yes, probably, especially GTA3 !? The more noise
the more wear right? I don't believe the TOC is the reason, it seems the games
can be coded to make minimal noise, or LOTS of noise. Running Backups on the
media they were designed is obviously the best thing, but I can't afford to
go DVD media just yet and I hope people still support RIPS, I wish there was
more kits to find!!
I wonder if you burned Crash Bandicoot WOC on a DVD-R, would it be quiet then!?
