Yeah definitely. Pioneer A05 uses dvd-r as opposed to dvd+r media. Use Prassi PrimoDVD2 or Stomp RecordNowMax to back up dvd roms and use Traxdata,DVDMaster or Dark Purple Ritek
dvd-r's. The way to tell a decent make of dvd-r is the darker purple the write surface is, the more the PS2 will like it. You could also try Verbatim dvd-r but are quite pricey and some people have probs with them

Good luck

Prassi Primo DVD does not work well with the Pioneer A05...
The Pioneer A05 also does not work with +R/+RW media (as ottoman said)...It uses -R/-RW media....

@Nukleuz

RecordNow Max is the best solution for your dvd based games when using the Pioneer A05.....

If you were to get the A03 or A04 then you can use Primo DVD with no problems....

Media is highly dependant on YOUR PS2.... Some PS2's like certain brand of media, other don't....

Just get 1 or 2 discs of a certain brand and see if they work well for you....

Traxdata's are great (But are difficult to get ahold of if your in the US) Riteks use the same dye as Traxdata and are easy to get in the US...
