Another quick Q...

Ok, we decided to go, thanx to BG's advice, with this Bill guy in Chicago. And since we need to purchase a mod chip first, we were poking around the net just looking for that one irresistable deal. Well we found this canadian site that is more expensive than others that says that the Magic2 chip they sell is some special Red version or something... That others selling Green ones and such are cheaper versions. Is there anything to this? or them just talking noise? Where would YOU purchase a mod chip from? Just curious

Take a look at this post by Charlie_PS2....
It outlines some of the bugs with the green Magic 2's and also has the test results from the red Magic 2's...

Charlie's Mod Chip test results!

Have you determined what version PS2 you have?

You need to find this out BEFORE you purchase a Magic 2 so you can be sure you get the right one....

If it has the R at the end.... It "COULD" be a V4,V5 or V6.... Take a look at his website again and check...
