It's quite simple really but people tend to not listen. (Not necessarily you mate, you're just asking a question!)

Well lets put it this way,

The ps2 laser is kinda like baked beans (here jay goes again on another one!!! )

U can buy cheap baked beans which still do the same job (Ie food) but they simply ain't as good....plus if u buy really cheap beans then ur more likely to die from cheap beanage (Just like the ps2 laser dies quicker with bad media)


As you can probably tell, I'm bored

"I think" that if you at least look to see if it uses GO3, GO4, or GO5 dye. Then you should be fine.

Before you buy the media look on the page for what dye it uses.
