Need Answer to question

[Questi4110]

i am a huge newbie at burning ps2 games but my question is that if i download a ps2 game...apply any patches...and then try to play it wont work...will it only work with a mod chip or can it work with something else


Qurestion:
what patches do i need to apply to get it to work
What will it work with (mod chip or bootdisk)?
if it is a downloadable thing (same as above)?
If so...where can i download it




THANKS
