HDD LAN playable games list

There are 3 ways to play games between different PS2s

• iLink ( FireWire cable ) only works on PS2v1-v5
• Central Station ( Ethernet ) requires DNAS
• LAN ( Ethernet ) requires competitors to have port open on LAN

[PAL][NTSC]

• [0][?]ATV Offroad Fury 2
• [0][1]ATV offroad Fury 3
• [1][?]Colin McRae 2005
• [1][?]WRC 4
• [?][1]Star Wars Battlefront 1 (shrunk)
• [?][1]Star Wars Battlefront 2 (shrunk)
• [?][1]Gran Tourismo 4
• [?][1]Timesplitters 2
• [?][1]Timesplitters 3

1 = LANable, 0 = no such option or does not work with HDLoader

I will before X-mas test if the games I have work in LAN mode( not online ) when launched from HDD.

I would like this to become a sticky, and I would like others to also report whether or not which games work in LAN mode launched from HDLoader.

I can confirm "Star Wars Battlefront 1 & 2 (both shrunken), ATV offroad Fury 3, Gran Tourismo 4, and Timesplitters 2 & 3" all work from HD's. I've five units and tv's set up and use them all the time.

um..midnight club 3 i not sure bout 2 if it have lan or not but i think 2 u can play online with midnight club and tribes AA

LAN is not same as online...

dmdarkmagic is just staitin that MC2 can be played online while installed on the HDD just like how ATV Offroad fury 2 can also... As for other LAN games couldent tell ya.. There was a list a while back that had about 40 or so games that where LAN compatable but I cant recall where the link is..

Has any one tried Time Crisis 2 & 3? I would really like to run these games in link mode with two TVs from the HDD.

For LAN do you need the DNAS ID also?

Depending on if you set a default gateway I assume...

I'm not even able to find the network option in ATV Offroad Fury 3 :-(
Perhaps it is stripped off in the PAL version?

DNAS not needed for playing challenge mode -> LAN PLAY in Colin McRae 2005

Edit: And I have found that if you make rules in your router for your friends externalIP:port to be forwarded from your LAN, you will be able to play LAN games against friends with internet access :-)

I load both Ps2s using HDL and played both via iLink works great
