hi
I have PS2-V12 with Matrix Infinity, I was wondering what type of media i shoud use because i read some were that it says people should use high quality medias, I don't understand what they mean by high quality... can any body explain?

P.S. most of backups require a blink DVD, just want to know if the game will still work if i burn it on to 2 or 3 CDs..

Ridata/Ritek G04 DVD-R

Works best for me,but verbatuim/mitsubushi also works fine.

Riteks but make sure they are DVDR+ much better compatability with the PS2.

not true for all ps2's, certain versions have different lasers, some like dvd -R best and some like DVD +R best and some can use either with no difference

Shortterm: Games will freeze and fmv's might lockup.

Longterm: Your lazer will wear out 100x faster than using good quelety dvd's.

I found that most ps2s like dvd-r's more but the ones that doesnt like it as much still boot it fine and play without glitches.
