There's a new ps2 protection going arund, and guess what? it WORKS.

A game showed up in EUrope. If you try and play it fomr a hard drive, or have a modchip installed that is not tuned off, or use swap macig, once you try to start the game, the menus GREY OUT!

You *must* play from the original disc AND disable your modchip, or the game will not work. and it detects EVERYTHING.

It's official. Ingame protection is now in use on the PS2. This does NOT bode well.

Which game is this? Only for PAL games?

And it will be cracked within the month, at the most.

i was gonna say just that. probably less than a month.

Yeah. and then the next one will be harder to crack. There will be the RPG that you don't know your crack doesn't work unil you're about 1/3rd of the way thru the game, and then it wont't let you go any furyher. and when you try to load up the save with an original with the chip off, it's not gonna recognize the save. I've seen how this stuff plays out. It happens long ago with the 8 bit home computers. the race is on...

you can not stop the modders you can only contain us. remember guys when the ps2 was about to be released they had many people believe that modding was over with, now look at us now

Who cares about games for whores?
The only thing I care about is HOMEBREW!!! It's better for your wallet, it's better for your PS2's lens, it's better for your brains too.

In general homebrew is good.
