A technical question or two

Post by **Justicar333** » 07 May 2006

Was looking at getting a copy of Silent Hill 1, and having not used a PS1 game on a PS2 before was wondering. Will a PS1 memory card be needed to play it? Also, will I need a PS1 controler for it? Or any other odd things? Hadn't even thought about it till got to looking online for a copy and found some articles suggesting this could be so. Seems kinda silly to me, but if there is anywhere I can get a stratight up answer on what it takes to play SH1 figured this is it.

By the way, anyone else looking for one as well, seemed like a better deal here

than anything could find on ebay. It's not an original packaging, but it's half as much. Probably grab part 2 while I'm at it, save on that shipping.

hmm.. that's supposed to go right to the search result, just type in Silent Hill in their search, pulls up all the titles.

Get a PSone memory card (essential). PStwo controller will be just fine.

Oh and you'll get used to the graphics - the game is totally worth playing

Yeah I bought the game and forgot about the PSone memory card thing, but luckily I had one at home, just beat the game today and totally forgot about the graphics thing.

Got to give props to a Hellsing avatar after all.

You can copy files from a PS1 card to a PS2 card. You cannot access them while playing a game, but you can archive them that way, and it gives you damn near limitless capacity for PS1 saves, as a PS1 block is only 16k.
