If a PS2 will boot a dvd-r/+r movie then thsi is a good sign it'll boot games but not necessarily a sure sign of trouble free gaming.

The reason for this being that a dvd movie is a lot less complicated to read than a constant streaming game like for instance GTAViceCity.

For example I have a load of dvd movies backed up onto bulkpaq dvdr that play fine but if I put a game on them it boots up at about half the speed and crashes mid game. ( avoid bulkpaq!)

It sound like yr mates PS2 will boot PS2 dvd-r/+r games fine but use best quality media for best chance at getting games to run reliably ie. traxdata or dvdmaster.

Also if u do hit problems then u can always drop a new laser in there
