I really hope this isnt BS!

Cant wait for more info.

TylerDurden · #3 24-05-2004, 20:08

It makes me wonder. We will just have to find out and see. I dont understand why they just dont cut the cost of making discs and shipping and make the sucker downloadable.

Tyler!

heh get u a good 250 or 300 gig hdd and install ever ps2 game on it and never have to carry all ur games around again that would be pretty cool

MoBiUs · #5 24-05-2004, 21:40

i wonder if you can install the program on the hard drive and not have to put the cd in all the time.

also where can i get it from

lufcfan · #6 25-05-2004, 00:21

IT'S FOR SALE NOW at Divineo.com or Divineo.co.uk

So it's true that ps2 can't support HDDs bigger than 120GB.

it seems they release it as pressed disk and maybe they put some protection like action replay in there.

The maximum hard disk drive size supported by HDLoader is 120gb, and the minimum size is 40gb. I hope the disk will be in a format that windows can read it so you can tranfer to outher drives

it looks pretty nifty and it would probubley greatley increase the life of your ps2 also I hope it works well

Yeah but its only a preorder.

@khafan,

If they had that kind of technology then why didnt they make the disc a self boot?

Tyler!

Frito · #10 25-05-2004, 07:00

Booyaaa! Looks like people with chips will be able to copy their backups to the HDD. Otherwise, you have to use the original disc.

khafan · #11 25-05-2004, 07:25

@TylerDurden

well, they didn't say you need modchip to load it, so it should be a selfboot disc or maybe I'm wrong.

gamesmell · #12 25-05-2004, 07:29

I did not see anything about it not self booting itsself

lufcfan · #13 25-05-2004, 08:02

nor me???

NatureX · #14 25-05-2004, 08:52

Actually im a little worried.
Cause, when I installed my HDD, my modchip didnt work. So how does that all fit?

Guess I gotta wait for more info.

BTW, is anyone pre-oredering? WHen is it released?

Maybe I read this wrong but I got the idea that he meant that you needed a gameshark to boot the disc. But it could mean that they used the same technology used in gamesharks to boot them and used that for this disc.
