PS2 Slim – Create your own sensor blocking tools!

Oct 1

Posted by


Have a slim PS2? You can create your own sensor blocking tools using a straw, cardboard, and some paper. By blocking the sensors on the PS2 slim, you will be able to play backed up games using Swap Magic.

What is Swap Magic? Swap Magic is a swap disc that your playstation 2 reads, and it tricks your ps2 into being able to play backed up copied games.

Where can you buy Swap Magic? Try http://www.estarland.com. If you have a fat ps2, you will need to get Swap Magic with slide card. In next few days, I will have a tutorial showing you how to make your own slide card. Muahaha.

See youtube video below, it does a great job showing you how to make your own sensor blocking tools for the playstation 2 slim to make it work properly with Swap Magic.

      There is a method where you can use a legit sports game, make a backup of that game with a modification such that when you put in the real sports game, you do a swap with the backup disc, select online, and then it goes to a unlaunch elf screen and you can do your modification. Another method is some james bond game, but I don’t remember off hand. You can go to psx-scene.com forums and ask about this method.
