Under United States law, obtaining a dumped copy of the original machine’s BIOS is legal under the ruling Lewis Galoob Toys, Inc. v. Nintendo of America, Inc., 964 F.2d 965 (9th Cir. 1992) as fair use as long as the user obtained a legally purchased copy of the machine.

The PlayStation 2 (PS2) is a gaming console from Sony, which was released on March 4, 2000 in Japan, in the United States on 26 October 2000 and in Europe on November 24, 2000, as the successor to the PlayStation. A few years later ps2 emulation started to pop up, these early stage emus could only run home brew games and where full of bugs. Now many years later ps2 emulators are almost bugless and can play almost any game on your PC with good fps(frames per second). If you don’t know how to install/config a ps2 emulator then click here.
