NO. Most of the time reliable emulation requires a system many times more powerful then the console you're trying to emulate. The Xbox just isn't fast enough to emulate PS2- on top of that PS2 is not easy to program for.

The Xbox CAN play PS1, Gameboy, Nintendo 64, Sega Megadrive\Genesis, etc. These are commonly referred to as 'Roms'

VCD: Unfortunately, no. Although it is possible to get VCD addons for Playstation (not Playstation 2), Sega Saturn, and Dreamcast, do not expect to be able to play a VCD on your game system even if it is equipped to play DVDs. DVD-R: DVD-Rs may work in your game system, but it might not work properly. For example, I tested some discs in my own PS2 and there were problems with the menu that made it almost impossible to select the desired episode.

No major differences between the two versions - simultaneous release. The Xbox's increased memory and graphical capabilities will yield some improvement in visuals, but for the most part the games are identical on both platforms.

For games: Ps2 of course, the games are absolutely mesmerizing :D For a second PC: XboX, there is a wide variety of multimedia software available for it ;-)

Devices without a web browser to complete the registration process must use a DSL/Cable Modem router to access the network. Refer to question 3 for setting up a DSL/Cable Modem router. Then refer to the Xbox or PlayStation 2 instructions provided by the manufacturers. Some games may require specific firewall rules to operate properly.

No! However, games are only included in the Normal (2 discs out a time) and above plans and are accessable for members who have been with DVD Direct for more than one continuous month. This is provided at no extra cost! [Return to The Top]

You can buy USB playstation- and xbox converters in the shops. We recommend, you contact your vendor about the quality of this signal conversion (accuracy) as we haven't tested this yet.

You can design in anything you can think of. Personally, I don't have a gaming console so I have never given any design considerations to this. However, there are a number of persons who have. Check out Build your Own Arcade Controls and look for console examples. This is a fantastic site for getting excellent ideas.

There advertisements are false. Currently the Neo 2 is the best solution available. If there was a better chip out there, we would sell it ourselves.

No. The English PS2 is not region free and therefore, will not play this game without some *ahem* help, but the Japanese PS2 will have no problems playing this

You will need some form of a mod for the PS2. If using the Swap Disks system, then do not worry as they are very reliable and I myself along with many others use them and have had no problems. With the swap disks, you need one more form of a mod which could be a flip top which I personall reccemend. The flip top will basically have you simply take off the top of your PS2 and place a new one.

The short answer is you can't. The long answer is you can, but it's a pain. First you'd need to download Paradox's Console ID Changer: SKS Apps Then you'd need to find a valid PS2/ilink ID for the region you wish to play online games with. These ID's are hard to come by, if any online servers detect multiple Console ID's online at the same time, you will be banned permanently. This isn't like getting kicked off for an hour because of cheating or using a modchip, this is for good.

I have heard that it is possible to download Emus and Romz (snes, nes, sega, and on) and play them in xbox linux, now, is it possible to play PS2 games on a xbox running Linux? that is download the emulator and play ps2 from linux? I have heard it is possible but i have never seen it though. Emulators are for old generation games like GameBoy, Sega Genesis, NES, Super NES, N64, and the like. There isn't a good PS2 emulator available for a high end DESKTOP computer with a 2.

Games are more expensive and have a shorter shelf life than movie titles so we have made 1 game rented = 2 DVD movies or music titles. We have also made the decision to allow only game rentals start from a 3 plan so customers can also have movies alongside selected games. DVD plan you can choose to rent 2 games and 1 movie or music title or 1 game and 3 movie or music titles.

Some game consoles, such as the PS2, XBOX and Gamecube are able to connect to the internet over a home network. This enables online game play, a very popular feature of current games on the market. All of these consoles offer Ethernet connectivity, so simply plugging the console into one of the available ports on your router and following the console's instructions should get you on the internet.

No, the hardware is not the same, it is not backwards compatible and it does not have built in PS1/PS2 emulation.

Yes! They will! Sony Computer Entertainment boss Ken Kutaragi has confirmed that the Playstation 3 will feature backwards compatibility with the PS2 ans PS one. Later it was confirmed agin at the Sonys E3 conference that the PS3 will be fully backwards compatible with PS1 and PS2 games.

No, some software was attemted to be developed to allow this some time back but limitations of the PS2 determined this was not possible.

Yes and No, while we understand the real necessity for backups of your original games, we do not condone or promote piracy in any way. DVD-ROM titles cannot be copied as is it not feasible or cost effective to do so with DVD formatted titles.

Burn Game Station is testing all mods released for the PS2 and so far no solutions have proven to be fully reliable and offer enough functions for us to offer them to Members. New mods and designs have now been finalised for playback of all import games (US/JAP on PAL and vice versa). These mods are currently in the final stages of manufacture and once finished will be tested for quality.

Sony has promised backwards compatibility with PS2 games, but now there is talk that the emulation required to pull this off might not be ready for launch. It's also unknown if all PS2 games will be playable on the PS3 if the do pull off this backwards compatibility.

Yes! Xbox 360 can play DVDs and is a progressive scan DVD player so DVDs will look as good, plus up-scaling to High Definition may be possible but has not been confirmed. The remote control is not required but this allows access to regular DVD controls plus Media Center features for the built in Media Center Extender.

You will need to purchase the Xbox DVD playback kit for your Xbox to play DVDs (The Xbox will only play DVDs in 480i resolution). If you are connecting your Xbox to a VCR then you are experiencing a copy protection feature called Macro vision. The only way to resolve this problem is to connect your Xbox directly to your Television when watching DVD movies.

Yes- if you have a v.12 or 13 PS2. HD Connect is an IDE connector soldered to your slim PS2's motherboard which allows you to connect an IDE HD and play games off the Hard Drive. To do so, you will need a DMS 4 Pro SE modchip. HD Combo is a similar product which also runs off the DMS 4 Pro SE. A premodded DMS 4 Pro SE with HD Combo sells for around $270. Using ToxicOS, you're able to load games off the HD, like you would with a fat PS2. The solder points for HDConnect have been removed on the v.
