Help with copying PS2 DVD

I have a Pioneer DVD burner and I want to backup one of my games on to a blank DVD-R. I was wondering can I play the game using the swap trick? And if so how would I backup the game?

You need a mod to play your backups. Read the STICKY at the top for backup procedures. Primo wont work for you have an A05.

So if I'm using the swap method with the GS2 it won't boot my back-up?

The swap method only works if you have a mod installed.

I've heard that it can be done. After it goes to the gameshark main menu press the eject button and put in an original DVD game with a higher or equal TOC than the backup. Then theres this one game(gauntlet legends i think) that if you turn on all the codes and try to start with codes it says theres too many codes and takes you back to the main menu. After this happens swap the backup in (knife trick) and start without codes. Thats what i remember seeing, but i've personally never seen it work, nor have I ever seen it tried. If you want to do that you can, but a modchip is much easier and safer.

True, but I don't advertise the knife trick because it trashes your ps2. It's cheaper to buy a mod than a new ps2.
