Congrats nectaris!
Guys, I am still in shock from me recent winnings of the Duo from Sparks, and I would like to extend my thanks and appreciation by holding my own raffle. While not turbo related, these things are a lot of fun.
I will be building a PS2 with internal HD that boots up with Free McBoot. Games installed will be of the winners choice, I have most of them. With this, you can play imports, translations such as Dragon Quest V, and so much more. I will include a few apps, and give a quick tutorial on how/what to do with them. PS2 games are normally a few gig each, so the size of the HD will be the limit on what games I can include. Basically, when I build it, I will need a list of games...in priority.
Now, the rules....
You must have contributed somehow to these forums, in some shape or form.
You must not be in bad standing, or just a dick to other members.
You must have been a member for at least a few years... This rule is one I will be a little lenient with.
So, with that... lets roll. Hopefully there will be some interest....I know this is a turbo dedicated forum. :)

Generosity begets generosity. Way to go, Bernie.

As luck would have had it, my ps2 bit the dust just recently. Please sign me up Bernie! I'll make sure its near other Bernie merchandise. :P

How many hair dryers do you own? :?:
-
Nice! I could use this just on the basis that I actually have several imports (including the aforementioned Dragon Quest V), but I gave my Japanese PS2 to a really good friend several years back, so it'd be awesome to have something import capable.
Please enter me if you see fit!
-
I'd love to have it, but I can't justify denying it from going to a home where it'll get frequent use since I'm far too slow at dealing with my backlog of games, so good luck to the winner!
-
A PS2 Phat with internal hard drive?
That is intriguing!
-
I have a PS2, but I just wanted to say that I am glad you will soon have a non-melted DUO courtesy Sparky!
:)
-
I have a ps2, but this is a great raffle. Hugs all around for such a great community[emoji4]

None, but it was near the N64 I got from Bernie a few years ago. lol.

Off topic, but how do you play imports with Free McBoot?
This is a stupid awesome thing to have btw. I love mine.
-
very nice! i need a way to play some imports. will i be able to enter the raffle?
-
I already have a ps2 with freeMCboot but I too don't know how to play translations. I think their is a Berserk game translation that I'd like to try. Anyways great raffle.
-
In like Flynn
-
Nice raffle, Bernie. I've already got a super-slim PS2 modded for all regions, so I pass. However, make sure the winner gets SDF Macross on the HDD - there will be no excuses.
-
Sign me up please i could use a way to play PS2 imports.
-
Anyone already having free mcboot and has some questions, just shoot me a PM. :)

I was going to sign up for the raffle but there's no way I can make room for another console here. Oh well, good luck to everyone!

I'm in

I'm intrigued enough to want to enter.
-
As someone who has never had a playstation of any flavor, but had recently been looking more and more into them, this is right up my alley. I'm in, por favor
-
sign me up if you deem me worthy. I need something to play ps/2 imports. been dying to import the phantasy star collection.
melty duo? the one that was left next to a hair dryer?
-
Bernie do you have an easy guide to installing a hard drive and getting the PS2 soft modded?
-
If you send me a memory card, I'll do it for you. The rest is easy.

I own some genuine PS2 imports, AM2 Macross, Rimo Cocoron, Dog of Bay, Super Galadelic Hour, Sega Ages Gunstar Heroes Collection and some other cool weird games I can't play anymore because my fat PS2 with modchip is broken. I got a new slim PS2 at one point but it isn't chipped... Has FreeMCBoot been updated so you can launch discs from different regions yet? That's all I really want without the trouble of having to install a mod into my slim PS2. I'd really love to load up the best Macross video game ever made again one day.
-
Congratz again on the Duo win.
Question: Can the PS2 have a background picture of Dave Coulier when you build it? It would make my year when some entrent gets it and is stuck with that face staring back at them every time they try to play it. LOL
-
I'm in Japan, but if you'll sign me up, I'll pay shipping.
-
If the raffle has not ended yet and if you will allow please enter me. Thank you.
-
Dang, Bernie! That's one hell of a raffle! Don't add me as my PS2 already has a hard drive installed, though I use HD Advance to access it. I think my hard drive is an old 40gb so it doesn't hold that many games, but it's pretty much all games I still own. They load so much faster off a hard drive!
Does free mcboot allow you to transfer PS1 games to the hard drive? I think I use my PS2 to play PS1 games more than for PS2 games. :)
-
Great job Bernie, makes me want to raffle off some of my Sega stuff of which I have a metric f*ckton.

Awesomeness. I will let this run for a couple weeks, ending before Turkey day.

-
Silly question ... but to save me searching the interwebs, does anyone know if this Free McBoot work with Sony PS2 Test Kits?
-
No clue. Sorry.
