In this article, I will talk about how to download PlayStation games from the Internet and how to burn them to a CD to play on your console. Downloading PS2 games on the Internet is definitely the easiest and cheapest way to get new PS2 games. Saves you walking to your local game store in the pouring rain and finding out that the one you’re looking for is out of stock! But is it easy to download them? And is it legit? Downloading torrents and games over peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is the most obvious way to go. But it’s usually illegal and sometimes very, very complicated. So is there a simpler way?
Some of the sites ask you to pay a subscription fee to download PlayStation games directly from them (their servers) or download games from their P2P network, outside of other users on the network. The only problem is that if the other user logs out, your game will stop downloading. But there are websites where you can pay a small one-time fee and have access to the site for life. However, are these services up to date? Some of them probably aren’t. But if you do your research before you buy, you can find some great sites, packed with great games.
So are some of the sites better than others? Yes, there are a lot of them, but like most things online, you have to watch out for scams. Doing your research on the site first is obviously the best thing to do, but always be careful when parting with your cash. Some sites may be out of date and only offer a small selection of games. There are sites that also have games on other platforms (Xbox, Nintendo) along with movie and music downloads.
