Overview:

With over 60 million consoles sold worldwide as of 2003, Sony's Playstation 2 (PS2) has the largest user base of the current generation of gaming consoles. Surprisingly, however, the fewest hardware hacks and homebrew software projects can be found on the PS2, compared to Microsoft's Xbox or Sega's now defunct Dreamcast. Outside of modchip manufacturers, very few hardware hackers have been dedicated to exposing the PS2's internals--until now. Explore the internal workings of your PS2 console in this sample chapter from Joe Grand's Best of Hardware, Wireless, and Game Console Hacking DVD. Chapter coverage includes:

  • PS2 system overview
  • Mainboard revisions
  • Opening and disassembling the PS2
  • Hack #1: Installing a serial port
  • Hack #2: Booting code from the memory card
  • Additional hacks and resources
Code examples are included, as well as detailed instructions and hi-res color photos to demonstrate each step of every hack.
