Detect game title being played?
Posted: Sat Sep 01, 2007 5:55 am
I'm totally new to PS2 programming but I'm an experienced scripter who can hack my way through most any code. I need to learn to do a few basic coding tasks on a PS2 but I don't know if what I want to do is even possible--so I need to ask you experts:
Is it possible to non-intrusively identify what game is being played on a PS2, perhaps by monitoring an API of some kind? I'm hoping that maybe PS2s expose a standard set of info whenever a game is being played that can be interrogated.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to use a USB port or some other non-intrusive access point to capture this data.
Is it possible? And if so, can anyone direct me to more info?
Thanks,
Chris
