Never noticed before, but the first 2 #PlayStation2 games I owned were both on CD. I guess thinking about it, Ridge Racer V isn't a huge game, but I'm pretty surprised that Tekken Tag Tournament fitted on a single CD. #RetroGaming
@Hundstrasse I did Swap Magic for a while on my PS2. I was surprised how many games actually were CD. Another two I particularly remember were the Contra game (not bad, but I can see it as being not too big,) and a Wizardry game that is quite large in scale, but I admit has relatively simplistic assets. Most of the CD games also run great from a USB drive despite the system's rather awful USB 1.1 speed limitations. (Probably 8Mbps rather than the theoretical 12. Maybe even 6...)
@nazokiyoubinbou i picked up one of those adapters that let's you load games from SD card through the memory card slot (which has faster speeds than the USB unbelievably!) Sadly I've yet to get it to work 😕... But also haven't tried to problem solve much either 😅.
Contra is surprising. Jurassic Park operation genesis is CD too... I guess it sounds similar to the wizardry game you mentioned in that it's quite light on assets, but feels big.
