!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Did the OG PS2 have anti skip technology?
My brother put the slim in his car briefly, it had a totally different disk mechanism though.
Unlikely. It’s made for a living room which doesn’t move not a car.
It actually didn't need it because it loads data to the ps2's ram which isn't as sensitive to shaking. I'm sure load times probably might suffer though. But I also had a slim in my car, and though I really only used it while stopped, I did occasionally play a movie on a road trip without an issue.
Anti-skip technology in CDs is just having a small amount of RAM as a buffer, so same thing.
