  1. I've been reading about all the new updates to the dashboard in the xbox one and thinking the interface is getting just too complex. Besides all the social media, tv tuning, advertising, DLC and game library, you can tweak the interface for transparencies and other stuff. This thing is now a complete desktop computer! Is all this stuff really necessary?

     

    Back in the old days there was no crazy OS to run the games on. The most complex we got was a new pause button and number keypad on the controller and even that was pushing it!

  2. I don't see any reason to delete anything in the image. It's not like your hurting for storage space and the entire image only takes about 10gb. I believe there are only seven utilities on the image anyway. If you need to you can remove things once the image is created by using winHIIP. I would get rid of SMS player and POPs emulators.

     

     

    Preinstalled Applications:
    - uLaunchELF Version 4.42_Evil
    - Open PS2 Loader Version 0.9.1 + GMS 0.37
    - HD Loader Version 0.8c 48Bit (I'm not sure if its 48bit or 28bit, if its not 48bit, you can add it.)
    - ESR beta r9b (GUI)
    - GS Mode Selector Version 0.37
    - SMS Player Version 2.9
    - Memory Card Annihilator Version 2.0
    - Sony PlayStation: POPS Emulator (Size set to 768mb, so you can one game to it. Note: I added a 30mb game to it.)
    - Gradius Gaiden (POPS Emulator)
    - Free McBoot Installer (Does not work.. ok it does work, it just can't see all the files needed.)

  3. Greg is right, it will copy the disc to the HDD in about 2-3 minutes. I find that actually works better than downloading an iso and copying it over. I had a Jax & Daxter iso that wouldn't work correctly on the hdd. I copied it from my disc instead and it works great. Probably a bad iso.


  4. So with that adapter listed earlier I can read the PS2 hard drive with my PC using a USB port? I assume that's how most people get games onto their HD's?

    yup. You use WinHIIP to read the HDD and load images on the drive.

    Yeah I think I'll stick with the largest IDE drive I can get for a reasonable price.

    If I were you I would just get the SATA adapter for $60 and the 2TB for $80 and let the downloading begin.

     

    You can however get the IDE to SATA Hdd adapter for about $10. But you need to be careful to make sure the network interface still connects to the ps2. You would need to go with a laptop HDD instead otherwise it will never fit inside. I've seen people that sell those modified adapters.


  6. The following Ebay seller is a source of "quality" pre-labeled blank discs that you can buy and burn your 3DO (and Sega CD) game data to:

    The obvious downside to this is that the authenticity of disc only copies of certain 3DO and Sega CD games is now open to doubt, and that the prices for boxed and/or complete copies will likely rise as they do have a better chance of being authentic.

     

    I've never thought to print color directly on the CD. I usually do the lightscribe labeling. Looks like a color CD printer is pretty expensive. $400+
