VCD's is the name for video on CD but alot has been going around about can they be played on the PS2 and the answer is kinda.
You see all DVD players will play pre recorded VCD's because it's built in to the DVD format but the "pirate" VCD's that people burn themselves won't work on a PS2 or DVD player unless it says VCD compatible and the PS2 is NOT.
So you can run prerecorded VCD's on your PS2 although the quality is the same as VHS and publishers can't fit that much video on them.
Although DVD's have so many features and the quality is outstanding it's still nice to know that they work.
thought this may interest some of you.
