Can I rip my ps2 iso's?

1nf3rn0x · Jul 30, 2012

Can I rip my PS2 game iso's from the disk and use them to emulate on my pc? I want to play my old favorites like gran truismo 4 and lots of other games

And what program would I need to do this...?
Thanks :toast:

pretty sure you can just insert the disc in the drive
and play that way aswell

Any cd-dvd software should do. Nero, Alcohol, CloneDvd, ImgBurn etc.

Or just use blindwrite

And don't forget that illegal copying/distribution and other good ol' blah.

This is strictly for backup purposes

Ps2 emulators are not 100% effective.

No they are!!
I am the master at PS2 emulating on PC with PCSX2 but you need to be sure to have a legal bios and game or it will called ******.

i have dumped my PS2 bios and added it to PCSX2 so it is not ******, and also buy original games

Any question about it ask me or go to pcsx2.net and register to their forums.

And nero can easily do that

NO there are MANY games the emulators wont play PERIOD you have to know this for a fact cause there is a PS2 game compatible.

IMGBURN is good to rip.

PCSX2 is good, but can be a hassle as glitches are common.

You are wrong at this friend, okay i will tell you something that PCSX2 can run any game all you need to do is settings for that game{for example- I can play Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 with X3 speed hacks and VU skip + 1:7 fps ratio but if i try to play Avatar: Burning Earth on the same settings i will not able to for that i need X2 or X1.5 speed hacks.
I have more then 50 PS2 games cd} i only get problem in playing Dragon ball z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 2 players because my CPU does not supports SSE 4.1 to play it 2 players i will need SSE 4.1 or a strong GPU atleast HD 6770

The developers didn't make a Compatibility list for their health...

gopal · Jul 30, 2012

I don't know about the Compatibility list but i can play every game i have

I know two games right off hand that WILL NOT play and that's baldurs gate dark alliance 1 and 2 cause they are two of my favorite games on PS2 and its saddens me that they are unplayable on emulator.

gopal · Jul 30, 2012

no i don't have baldurs gate dark alliance 1 and 2, i think i am pretty luckey that i didn't buyed games that i cannot play

Well looks like i was wrong, I don't have any games that i cannot play so all the time i thought the PCSX2 is great

You need PCSX2 to run. Also you need a PS2 bios

gopal · Jul 30, 2012

What bios does PS2 have?
Use BIOS dumper to have your PS2 bios
