Magic2 Vs Messiah 2

Is the magic 2 regarded as a "good" mod?? I have a V7 + Magic 2 on order but have been told that the messiah 2 will be far better. Can any one tell me the main differences please?? If you have a magic 2 fitted, are you happy with it??

Regards

Gentle

The only real differences are the booting procedures and the compatability. There are several differnt versions of the Magic 2. You must get the version that corresponds with your version of ps2. The Messiah 2 is universal and works with nearly all versions. You can read the differences in booting procedures in the STICKY listed above posted by BG.

Yep.... Not many differences other than the boot procedure...

Although the Magic 2 has been known to have problems booting dual layer games such as Xenosaga...
The Messiah 2 boots Xenosaga 100% of the time. (thanks to Charlie_PS2 for the Messiah 2 review on this)
