PS2 Linux Kit
Advertisement
You don''t need the ps2 linux kit to get some experience programming for the PS2.
It is more than possible to program for the PS2 without the linux kit, in fact IMO it could be better to not worry about the linux kit at all. (I''d love to have one though
)
You do need some method of running the code on your PS2 however, the easiest (but not only) ways are to have a modchip or the ps2linux kit.
I won''t go into detail about it in this post... If very many people seem interested I''ll write up a tutorial for gamedev on getting started with homebrew ps2dev.

Does anybody think I could use the Linux kit to alter some details in exsisting PS2 games such as carachters and sports uniforms?
No, PS2 linux is totally different to normal PS2 stuff.
There are a couple of PS2 linux tutorials on GameDev.
Part 1: Initialization
Part 2: Drawing Primitives
Not much but its a start.
