  • As a follow up to my previous MX4SIO overview video, today we will test a more graphic intensive game God of War 2 instead of Marvel vs Capcom 2. In short, the game works well, the audio and gameplay does not lag, and the initial in-game movie works great.
    If there are other games you'd like to be tested, please leave a comment and I can check it out. Thanks for watching!

    Just some more testing with MX4SIO because not enough videos on this project! Cheers and hopefully game compatibility increases over time. If there is a game you'd like tested, let me know and I can look into it. Otherwise, let us what are some of your favorite PS2 games of all time!

    Please help me- I cannot access the PS2 home website so I have come here. I have a modded PS2 slim 90k4 (Matrix but not v5). I burned uLaunchELF onto a disk and copied it to my SONY GENUINE 8MB memory card. I wanted to update OPL ('cause Prince of Persia: WW was giving me some minor graphical glitches) so I downloaded and copied the newer version onto the memory card. Some days later, I went into PS2's system config to reset the time as my battery has (probably, because it happened after I had my console modded). Anyway, I then went into the browser and noticed that I was running low on storage, so I deleted the previous OPL data and all the 'corrupt data' from the browser, something which I had definitely not done if I wasn't playing it after 4 years. Now I have "No DVD Player Set Up" error message when I pop in an original DVD; and no driver version is displayed, tho I remember it to be 3.11U. I'm truly lost. [ SCHP-90004 version]
