    Alright, I have decided to go with Swap Magic and I want to know if this is all I need: http://ihackps2.org/inventory/produc...65&cat=0&page=

    I also found this: http://ihackps2.org/inventory/produc...7&cat=0&page=1
    ..What is it, and will I need it? Is it the same as "The Magic Keys 2", if so, is it better?

    Also, if you read the review on the first page someone said this: "Item was shipped in 3 days! It arrived at my home but took nearly two hours to install and required super glue to make the pieces stay put. No instructions on how to install the pieces was included."

    ..will I have similar problems; do you really need to use glue?


    Thanks in advance,

    Why not just go with one of the reputable modders here in the Buy/Sell Vendors forum? Ship off your PS2 ($15), get a chip (~$30), get it installed (~$35), and shipped back ($15)...total cost is $95 and you'll have a safe, solid, 100% working solution!

    Matrix Infinity and Crystal Chip are good for the $30 range. For a little more, DMS 4 Pro is also good in the $50 range.

    Just seems like a lot of hassle and potential damage to your console if you opt for a swap trick. Consider it...
