IIRC, you can't play VCDs with just a modchip
you have to buy this adaptor thing which costs about £40ish.

Its has a wire conneting to the PS2 and on that wire a box is found, this is where the chips and stuff allow the ps2 to play VCDs.

I can't remeber the link
but I'm sure you can find it on the net if you look for it.

Hope that helps

Well I was actually looking for some first hand experience feedback on it like what mod chips were used and what type of results they got from an actual person.

If that ps2 goes out which I doubt will really happen just wait on ps3 to come out. I can't wait.

Well to answer the question it depends which chip you get their is quiet a few out their. But most of them do play VCD, SVCD all you have to do is read, ask! Also waiting for a PS3 will take another 2 years at least and why bother with a PS3 when their is going to be a XBOX 2 :D . Also why in the hell is this in movieworld? Also shouldn't this be in gameworld or hardwareworld I know it is about playing about VCD & SVCDs but something is telling me it's in the wrong place.

I dont know if this helps. PS2Reality (http://ps2r.dg2.org/main.html)
Its a media player for the PS2 (must be modded) It does'nt play VCDs but it does do DivX/XviD (AC3 or MP3 sound) MP3s, Oggs and jpegs.
I've been using it for about a year now with no problems.
