    Default modding a ps2

    I am also wanting to mod a ps2. Preferably a solderless, and I really don't want to do swap magic everytime. And yeah, I was wondering what is best.

    I heard these are good:

    I also have heard solderless are not very reliable, but I'm not sure.

    or...

    Just buy a new, pre-modded system for 100-200 dollars. It'll last you a lot longer.

    Well, I'm lucky enough to live in a small town surrounded by bigger towns and cities, so it was hard for me to find a place on the net that was just a couple hours drive away.

    Try putting your town name into google along with "PS2 Modding" or something. I got two pre-modded slimlines 2-3 years ago (one for me, one for my grandma), and they're still alive and kicking.

    Ceros: Dad, I need the car.
    Dad: ok, why?
    Ceros: I'm going to go get a game.
    Dad: Where?
    Ceros: California.
    Dad: No, Ceros. You can't go. We have to...
    WoW Ceros: BUT DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    Dad: Now, Ceros, you know you can't do that.
    WoW Ceros: BUUUUUUUUUUUTT DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!
    Ceros's friends: Dude. That the most fucked up shit I've ever heard.

    Haha, I commented on it. That's nuts! I was wondering why you were putting "WoW" in front of my name on those 2 lines. So yeah, but seriously, does anyone know where I can get a pre modded system online.
