PS2 games r best burned on DVD-R

Even though DVD-R r the best to burn PS2 games because DVD+R does have problems with earlier versions of the PS2 (the problem i had) therefore i recommend 4 use to try out Ritek DVD's because this was recommended to me buy a friend and it worked 4 me. therfore ask ur DVD seller for Ritek manufacture DVD's cause the will be DVD's which will have a diiferent name but still be manufactured by Ritek. i have had sucess with RitekG05.
 
Ritek G04 Dvd!!!

I have found that Ritek G04 are better than Ritek G05 for PS2 backups, I do alot of backups and even though G05 usually are fine , ive had a few play up on me, but never ever had any probs with G04! I would recomend G04 and burn at !x or 2x
 
i recomend verbatim, the Azo dye works the best and best of all u can play on them all nite and day the disc never goes bad or stops playing. quality comes at a price if u want something cheaper try w*w.cdrepublic.com they stock the same Azo products without the hefty price and guarantee if ur not happy give u ur money back. give em a try ive been using them for 2 years never had a dud disc. cd or dvd.
