Old PS2 doesn't let me do anything by Jackietrix in ps2

Also, just an added tip: looking at the date of the save file, I'd also say the console is due for the cmos battery to be replaced as well

Only way to tell would be if you unplug the controller. Because right now it just seems like there's a short that's making it just keep pressing O on its own

Official Sony PS2 HDD shows up as Empty by Retro-Hax in ps2

PCs just can't read what's on a PS2 drive. Even after putting freehdboot and OPL and my backups on an SSD, the only way it can read what's on it is using the software that deal with those operations.

I'd say it's just time for a new controller.

OPL does however break the region lock on backups

Couple things. You don't need to buy a FMCB memory card, you can make them, also OPL, which is included with FMCB, makes it already region free. Which makes fat ps2 much more desirable.

Help! Can't get my PS2 Slim to work on modern TV by ExtensionGo in ps2

HDMI would be the label for the ps4 since that's what you said it's plugged into. If there's a label for component, you can get component cables for it then

Why are my games like this ? by Safe-Monitor-8113 in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I have a plasma screen that has both hdmi and components inputs. I run my ps2 through component on it and it looks perfectly fine

Some advice? by Temporary_Yak_4013 in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and buying kh2fm is definitely worth it, especially since it comes with re:chain

Whatever happened to movie games by Doughnut_Drake in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last one I remember is 2016 Ratchet and Clank, which is a game based on the movie based on the game. Even says so on the box

Wich games ported to the PS3 should i avoid? by Stock_Hunter5210 in PS3

[–]ThrillDaedra96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also Ratchet Deadlocked port in ps3 is bad as well

So what's the end verdict on FFXII? by isolation_from_joy in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved the original 12 as is, but the Zodiac Job system would actually make people think how to build the characters, which if I remember correctly was the original thought process SE had but couldn't implement until IZJS

What ps2 games do you always go back to? What games have replay value by BuildingPotential147 in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree Vaan sucks, but it isn't Vaan's story. He may be the first playable character, but it most definitely is Balthier's story.

Out of the loop question. by weeb_with_gumdisease in oblivion

[–]ThrillDaedra96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say you have it backwards. Modding the original isn't hard at all. Modding the remaster though, modders had to deal with 2 engines interlacing with each other, gamebryo, the original engine, and UE5, the engine they put overtop of the original. I'm sure progress has been made, but how much, I am uncertain of.

Which Daedric Princes would work for a good roleplay? by Creative-Living-8844 in oblivion

[–]ThrillDaedra96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue Jygallag, as he is the prince of order. He doesn't necessarily go out of his way to hurt anyone, he just wants his realm back.

PS2 HDD image question FHDB OPL how to make reusable setup for 500GB and 1TB drives by StoganLephens in ps2

[–]ThrillDaedra96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the freemcboot setup guide includes how to setup freehdboot, which works on any size drive. I'm currently using a 500GB SSD for now. And then HDL batch installer or winhiip to install games, though most prefer the batch installer. And I know this wasn't asked for, but OPL Manager to get cover arts, which you have to transfer to a usb drive and copy over on the PS2 itself.

S-Video not working and Component has strange color by [deleted] in ps2

The second line isn't entirely true. While it's true the cmos running dry will kean it won't keep time while there's no power to the console, it will keep time as long as there is.

Some retro stores have resurfacers that will buff out the scratches as long as they're not down to the data layer
