Maxconsole Wrote:120 million PS2/PStwo consoles prepare to become modded via the use of a plug ‘n play advanced custom memory card! A new product is preparing to be launched within the next two weeks which gives PS2/PSTwo owners all the functions of an advanced PS2 mod chip but directly from an advanced memory card. That means no masses of wires to be soldered, no voiding of the warranty, just a simple insertion of a special memory card known as ‘Vast’ which will fully unlock ANY PS2 console just as would a hard wired mod chip would do so. The product essentially exploits a flaw in the PS2 memory card system and uses MagicGate technology which means that the totally innovative design will be 100% secure. When inserted, the following operating system will boot giving any PS2/Two access to a wealth of features. For the time being, enjoy the following screenshots of the OS, wee are expecting our insider to leak more information and media to us exclusively at MaxConsole as the launch draws ever closer.
Wow well this is some cool news, wounder what the price will be? my guess is like $75. idk. I would post the screenshots but maxconsole don't allow, but you can check them out at max.

Ok, why would anyone pay money for this? It took me about 20 minutes to make the exploit myself. I put the memory card in, place the game I used for the exploit (SF Alpha 3) and it runs the file browser .elf I had installed on it. Cogswap runs the same as Swap Magic, but for free, and HD Loader stores all of my downloaded games. HDLDumb creates an ftp to my ps2 harddrive, letting me transfer games to my ps2 wirelessly.
Cool, but i did the same thing GlaG did.
yeah, but that doesn't work on PSTwo....i might get one of these depending on the price, as im planning to mod my PS2 in the foreseeable future
nice. . . now ifonly they had one for the gamecube. . .
it dose work on the pstwo u just have to put some blu tack in the right places

i know it can be done, but you need to put bits of staw and poo poo all over your PsTwo, and youy need either swap magic (im considering) or ARM Exo (Also considering) This would be a quick solution
I'm definitely gonna buy this, because when it comes to consoles, I have a lot more at stake than when I mod a handheld, because when I screw up, it's not just me that suffers, but everyone else in my family that uses said console.
So would you just be able to put in a backup, run the OS, then boot it? Cause I've always wanted to try the custom song thing in Guitar Hero 2.
that's pretty much all i want to do...i don't care so much for PS2 piracy, files are too big for my liking
I forgot about the pstwo. In that case, it's almost win, you still don't have hard drive access, but you can run backups so it's good.
Couldn't the same be done with Swapmagic and a slide card to open your disk drive?
