    I was looking for a Gamecube modchip and I found this for the PS2:

    Click here

    It's a USB Mod Chip for the PS2 - you don't need to open the PS2

    Hope it helps !!

    :D

    afaik usb modchips have a pretty bad success ratio, you're far better off getting it chipped

    You do actually have to open the ps2 and solder a wire for the USBmod.
    Apparently the messiah 2 is the bees knees.
    I thought there'ld be at least a couple of chippers in dublin

    This chipping lark seems dreadfully expensive. You'd think as the ps2 ages, they'd drop their prices!!!

    The chips aren't getting any less complex, and the procedure for wiring in a proper one is still utterly tortous and requires microsoldering gear... PS2s are always going to be very expensive to chip, simply because it's such an utter git of a procedure to carry out.
