How to Use a PS2 Flash Drive to Play Emulators

Since its release in October 2000, the Sony Playstation 2 has become the best-selling game console of all time. The Playstation 2 has sold over 140 million units worldwide and owes its success to the multitude of quality content available for it. Within the years following the launch of the Playstation 2, a community of home-based programmers, known as the "homebrew" community, emerged. Programmers created a variety of software including emulators that run seamlessly on the PS2. "Homebrew" software can be run with the help of a USB flash drive.
