I would have to say that the messiah 2 is the best out there with the magic 3.1 a close second. The messiah 2 boots games and DVD9 just a little better than the magic 3.1. Actually the DVD9 is about the same. The messiah 2 boots EA games a bit better also. As far as where to get them, you can check my site out. Click the link below and e-mail me w/ any questions. Its on the contact page. I hope this was helpful.

It is a dual layered dvd. Most movies are dvd9 and there are several ps2 dvd9 games out with more soon to be coming. 99% of ps2 games are dvd5(single layer). Go with the Messiah 2.

the magic 3.1 isnt 'close' to the messiah 2.

seems so, but its actually a quite bad mod. i wont elaborate since it will take too long. but reasearch it and you'll find the answer.

Send charlie_ps2 or dust2dust an email and they can provide the chip and installation for you.

There is NO WAY you can honestly compare a no solder mod/Magic Swap Discs to the Messiah 2......

The No Solder/Magic Swap Disc combo FIRST requires you to swap, SECOND does not boot everything (try dvd rips) and THIRD WILL NOT BOOT ALL GAMES (not counting dvd-rips).....

The Messiah 2 is BY FAR the best choice.....

Thats why you get somebody reliable to buy from. If this were purchased from dust2dust or charlie_ps2 he wouldn't be having this problem.

MDV ain't still bangin on about the fabulous 'No Solder Mod' is he??

U is preachin to the converted. You'll never convince someone with a no swap chip that yours is better cos put simply it ain't.

Get a grip and get a messiah 2.

Takes me about 2 hours to install a messiah 2. I use an industrial surface mount microscope so never get the fitting wrong and out of 20 PS2's have never found a single problem with my chip fitting. Only probs have been with version 3 and 4 older lasers reading dvdr and that is easily fixed.

Now lets look at you.....

Your a loser
You have a losers mod in yr PS2
You have a sad losers life

and your very very boring with your no solder myths and legends. It suck, u suck ,ur whole damn lowsy operation sucks ( quote fm Homer), and before you reply, haven't you got a swap disc operation to perform??
