Pirated PlayStation 2 CD's exists?

[ THIS ARTICLE WAS ORIGINALLY POSTED BY JOHN PHILLIPS BENGERO ON OCTOBER 26th 2000 ]

Upon a recent visit to SM City North EDSA, Rocky and I were surprised to see video game stores selling.... *drum roll please* PLAYABLE PIRATED PS2 CD GAMES! For as low as P250 each, the games are now selling like hotcakes since the introduction of the PlayStation 2 modchips that allows pirated games to be played. I thought the Philippine government has been winning the fight against piracy? I guess not.

Sony Computer Entertainment reported that their shiny new system is pirate proof. The new DVD format will give pirates a hard time to copy the games but there are still PlayStation 2 games that are being released as CDs. CDs can be easily duplicated by pirates and together with the modchip developers, PlayStation 2s can now read copied or backup games in CD format.

How long do you think until the DVD format can be copied?
