Nowadays, PS2 games are no longer costlier to be not affordable and if you happen to lose the disc or it gets damaged, you must also be prepared to take the next step by replacing it or learn how to copy ps2 games with the help of your computer.

It was once thought to be too difficult to copy PS2 games due to their unusual size and kind of DVD discs. However, it has become very simple to copy PS2 games. All you need is a computer with a minimum of Windows XP or later operating system, a high speed internet connection, a dual layer DVD burner, plenty of blank DVDs to copy to, and software that can both read and burn PS2 games.
