Games take a long time to load why?

Yeah, definitely a media problem. The problem is that yr PS2 has to keep rescanning the surface to try and get a decent read so the game does get there eventually but takes forever compared to the original.

I found verbatim to be just as bad as any light bottomed cheap media.

The best is Ritek dark purple dye dvd-r like Traxdata or DVDMaster.

And on a different note, ditch the fliptop and swapmagic and get a messiah 2 installed!!
