    GDRs

    Hello,

    Thanks all for the explanations, I had the feeling it would be region locked, sadly.

    I took a look at the GDR surface and it looks al burn to me you can see colour differences on the edge of the GD like on regular CD which indicates the surface has been burned, but obviously I could be wrong.

    That is so lame to create fake GDRs anyway, I'm sure we are quickly going to see betas of Resident Evil 2 on PSX CDRs since a lot of them were floating on Ebay.

    I guess now I need to source a US DC, which is not going to make my other half very happy.

    BTW Nice auction Yakumo ;)

    sabre470, your GD-R is probably ok, but it must be region locked, some GD-Rs are region coded and they will not boot on another region DC even with the System Disc 2. But there's a trick to run them on your region DC. You can use the swap method available at Wombat site:

    http://www.xs4all.nl/~zizzo/special4_ENG.htm

    To run GD-R from another region, before inserting the normal game insert the Gameshark CD-X, then when Gameshark says "insert disc" put the normal game from your region (PAL, JP or US) and then while the disc is spinning make the swap with the GD-R and load the disc from the Gameshark menu. Is a bit rude but it works.

    That's good, I'm sure it works, however just by looking at the GD-Rs from www.insertgame.co.uk I knew that they would not work.
