He's talking shit. I have a V3 with Magic 3.1 and the game starts immediately (without going to the browser screen) if the game is already in the drive when you turn the console on or press reset.

Well depends on who you ask. Many people like to diss all Magic chips. I never had a problem yet. It works reliable and did boot everything until now.

Yes, a Messiah can be fitted in a v3. The installer was correct in what he was saying in that it boots to the browser screen first, but it should only do this for a brief period ( < 1 sec ) if your laser reads the discs well.....

I think he was unwilling to fit it as they are trickier to install on a v3.


Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're a cun........
