Mega cool, I’m curious if there’s a way to burn the ISO to a disc and get this playing on a physical console?

You'd need to hack the console to get it to load a burned disc, but if you can do that, you can also just load it from USB.

Though I guess you could burn it to a disk anyway purely for the sake of authenticity.

USB on the PS2 is limited to 1.0 or 1.1 speeds, so a disc may work better anyway.

Just to clarify, the difference on the PS2 is:

* CD: 3.6MB/s

* DVD: 5-8MB/s

* USB: 0.8-1.1MB/s

So the disk would almost definitely be the better option.

Can also use a micro SD adapter through the mem card slot. Generally considered a bit better experience than a USB drive.
