The PlayStation 2, like the original PlayStation, incorporates circuitry to prevent the playing of copied or out-of-region discs and programs produced by people who are not paying percentage to the Sony Corporation (unlicensed games etc.). User response to this - grey market for modchips. PS2 Mod-Chips when installed, bypass the checks and allow the copied CD-R and DVD-R backup discs to run.

The Flip-Top PS2 Covers allow you to play PS2 original, purchased game back-ups with the Swap Magic PS2 Boot Discs. This is performed by swapping the Swap Magic CD/DVD with your PS2 original, purchased game back-ups by lifting the Flip-Top lid. Only for use with original, purchased game title backups for which the original software license has. Connect the USB media to the PS2’s USB port.

Obviously the installation of mod-chips in PlayStation 2 consoles is widely discouraged by Sony -- the reason is piracy. You must know that Sony has overlaid a seal onto each of their PS2 consoles. If this seal is broken (thus providing evidence that the console has been opened and 'modded'), Sony will refuse to repair the system. On the other hand if your console is more than one yer old and no longer covered by the manufacturer warranty you should not worry about fraking the seal -- it will not change anything.

In Australia, the court has ruled that using a PS2 mod chips to play legally purchased game from another region is legal, thus making the mod chips fully legal in Australia. Conversely, a court in the United Kingdom ruled in 2004 that commercial possession, sale, installation or use of a modchip was illegal under the EU Copyright Directive.

When installed in your gaming system, such as a PlayStation or XBox, a mod chip will allow you to play imported games as well as backups of your own games made on CD-r or DVD-r Media.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to make this quick block post and link a video that I made on my youtube channel that shows the user how to easily add game cover art to your games that are installed on your internal fat ps2 hard drive.

The process is not that difficult and it breaks it down to the following steps:

How To Mod Ps2

1. Install games to internal hard drive using WinHIIP
2. Using the OPL Manager program, you can have it locate your games on your PC and get the cover art files. These are saved to the ‘ART’ folder.
3. Copy the ‘ART’ folder to usb thumb drive or usb hard drive.
4. Start PS2, go to ulaunchelf, and then copy the ‘ART’ folder from the usb device to your +OPL partition that is on the internal hard drive of the fat PS2.
5. Start OPL, and make sure cover art is enabled. Then it should work!
