Question
have u ever homebrewed  ps2 and played burn games on it if so can u tell me how? and i dont wnat to use a mod chip

Answer
Gday Hayden,

Most Homebrewed for the PS2 need to have either a moded PS2 or some sort of Boot disk (Magic Swap, Gameshark etc) for you to be able to run the burn software off your computer.

If you are actually interested in developing apps for the PS2 I would have a read here....

If you just want it so you can run burnt copies of other gaming systems ROMS to play on your PS2  (Which is not really homebrew just pirating software)  You'll have to look into that you're self.  Google and torrents are the easiest places to look for it.
