Thread: can a ps2 play copied dvds???

i have seen a pink ps2 that i would like to get for my daughters. i would like to make sure it can play copied dvds.

does the ps2 have to be chipped to play them?

thanks everyone!

Are you talking movie DVDs or game DVDs or both?

I use to make them with DVD Flick and they've always worked without a chip for me..

Yes. The ps2 will play movies that are made with dvd flick. They've worked for me so they should work for you as well.

thanks for replies

i didnt want to get the ps2 chipped as you can buy games to £1, but i would have chipped it to play movies.....but now i dont have to......thanks peeps!

yes man. The ps2 will play movies that are made with dvd flick.

The ps2 will play movies made with any dvd authoring software.
Should it? No.
The PS2 was not meant to be used as a DVD player although it has the ability doing so can severely wear out the laser.

I second this. You DO NOT need to chip your ps2 to play backup dvds.

The ps2 just plays them normally. Trust me, I tried. Obviously, you need to burn them with the right region settings.
either NTSC or PAL, but otherwise it works.
