Need Help! I am brand new to all of this and I need all the help and advice that one can give. I have bought the game shark and the chip, now I need to know how to backup PS2 games? I have no idea what programs to use or where to get them? Do I have to have a DVD writer or is a plain burner fine? Any and all help would be most helpfull. Make sure you put it in lame terms. I'm no pro.... hehehe... Thanks again for any and all help.
