ant2:
Like.my plan was to buy a ps2 for ps2 games. Think I may get a ps3 as you did in the future when the price drops further.

Direct boot of PS2 games? Man, CFW's finally come along a little bit. Post a video when you get this all going.
:cheers:

yeah you can direct boot em and you can PS2CLassics hold them and launch from main menu or Multiman. I however cant figure out retroarch for SNES and the like.

Another small update: Netbooting
The Bad news: I went a bit crazy with the games and went over what my 160gb ps3 could hold so I bought an external HDD (1tb WD element USB 3.0). But i ran into an issue, the HDD was not compatible with the PS3. It couldn't pull enough juice out of the usb port to power it. It would see it an unknown usb device. :banghead: I google around and saw others had a similar issue and fixed it by getting a powered usb hub. I didnt feel like spending more money so, I searched for alternative.
The Good news: After searching, I found a solution that was even better than my original idea. Certain CFW can load games from a network drive. So I updated my CFW to Habib's Cobra 4.55 and now I can load ps3, ps2 and psp games/isos for my network. Ps2 isos means I no longer have to manually make a placeholder on the dashboard for each game, just select and play. Even better my ext hdd does not need to a special format so I can use it a regular hdd for my PC without issue at the exact same time.
The Worse news: Some older ps2 games with steering wheel compatibility recognize my driving force gt wheel but not my pedals. I think my wheel is too new (in comparison to the game) and the game is looking for the original force gt wheel configuration. I will have time to test all the games on the weekend to give you guys a compatibility list.

Nice job so far! I plan on sending one of my ps3's in to get downgraded. Only guy I can find is in Indiana... Keep up the good work!
