Seeing so many folks play PS2 SOCOM II online via Xlink Kai (when logging into Halo 2) inspired me to dust off the PS2 slim & play online... which will now have me breaking out the HDD Phat this weekend.
Primary
1. Get my Phat online (via Xlink) for the heck of it. Been playing slim online a lot lately.
2. RIP SOCOM II to PC/transfer to Phat HDD
3. Test SOCOM II off HDD (no current listing in compatibility charts)
4. Test SOCOM II online off HDD
- Something about playing this online, 15 years later, on real hardware, fully off the HDD is awesome.
- Also, nice for LAN parties, only needing 1 game copy
Secondary
1. Move over additional games to PS2 HDD
- Including rip/move the great Metal Slug Anthology
2. Sort through OPL & POPS drama on forums
3. Likely set up a dedicated POPS HDD (versus USB)
- I have 5+ IDE drives I saved from work

Any updates on POPS/OPL drama?
Look forward to updating yall on testing SOCOM II via HDD!
Question... once a HDD is modded, can you install offical material? There was a SOCOM II DLC map pack stored on HDD but I don't want to accidentally erase a modded HDD in process
