How to Play PS2 Games on PS3HEN!

One limitation of PS3HEN compared to CFW is the inability to directly launch PS2 games in ISO format. Due to this, many of the existing methods for CFW will not work on PS3HEN, as PS3HEN requires a PS2 ISO to be encrypted in order to play. The method shown here will demonstrate how to take a PS2 game, encrypt it, and then create an installable PKG file out of it all thanks to PS2 Classics GUI! This will require you to have PSN activated on your PS3HEN console, as well as the basic knowledge of transferring a PKG over to your console to install.

This video assumes you already own a console modified with PS3HEN. It is also assumed the viewer has a basic understanding of how to navigate their console.

Just got my modded ps3 a couple months ago, part of why I wanted it was to relive all the old ps2 classics I grew up with, you have made that dream a reality so thank you Mr Mario

I literally was searching your channel last weekend looking for a tutorial like this and boom we got one. I’ve been trying to get SuperSlim PS3 modded for the longest time and watching your videos I got it first try. Salute

PS3 modding scene is back at it again!

[meshachfoster]

I have been trying to play my ps2 roms for a while now and tried a few other methods. For some reason they didnt work out for me but finally this did. Thank you very much for the detailed guide.

I tried for like 4 hours yesterday to install one stupid ps2 game on my ps3 with other tutorials to literally no avail. saw this video, watched it, it worked like a dream. thank you SO much.

Just wanna say thanks. I watched a bunch of your videos today and accomplished everything I was hoping to do with the PS3 I picked up yesterday. Got PS3HEN installed, installed multiMAN, was able to transfer a backup game from my computer to the PS3 via FTP and also install a backup PS2 game off a USB drive. Great stuff, cheers.

*ABOUT THE CONFIGURATION*
As I'm guessing right now, at this moment, config is optional and sometimes required, if your game is already a ps2 classic (Like most GTA games), leave it with the config the program recommends, if the program recommends just CONFIG (literally), check the compatibility list's notes on the game and use the appropiate configuration name, and if the list says nothing (and it's playable), cancel the configuration process, and the packaging will start anyway without configuration.

Dude, Thank you! Between this and your exfat tutorial, I can play my favorite ps2 game of all time again. I was trying for so long to make this thing work and I'm not a modder, I practically know nothing about this stuff and gave up, lost hope I'd never be able to play this game again without spending an arm and a leg. Seriously, you made my year.

[Tbonexb]

Wow! You are so awesome! I watched your tutorial with PS3Hen and this one. They both worked. Great stuff. Thank you!!!!

[Booze]

[sparkeyrl]

Thank you so much. I am completely new to the PS3 CFW/HFW world and getting PS2 games to work properly has been a challenge.
