Man and after all that shit you went through to get it, too...

OK, first things first

Is the disc clean?

Is the DC laser clean?

How do other discs (BC, legit GD's, burned emulators) run RIGHT NOW?

Does the bcMGS disc look fucked up?

Does the bcMGS disc work on the DC of anyone else you know of?

I remember when I was fighting Psycho Mantis, sometimes during the battle I'd get a black screen with green letters in the top right corner reading "HIDEO".... No idea why tho...

I know why (spoilers ahead...)








SPOILERS:
The HIDEO screen is a gag placed there by the developers. Know how Psycho Mantis is supposed to "read your mind" (read the memory card)? Well one of the things he can supposedly "do" is fuck up your TV. On Sony brand TV's if you have a PSX plugged into the Video In port and you turn off the PSX the screen goes black and the word "VIDEO" in green letters appears on the top right corner. That was the effect that they were going for - that Psycho Mantis was causing your PSX/TV to blank out, but for an extra gag they used "HIDEO", the first name of the lead producer on the game.
