Homebrew programs can be used to play patched backups of original PS2 DVD games on unmodified consoles, and to install retail discs to an installed hard drive on older models (ESR, HD Loader, HD Advance, Open PS2 Loader). Homebrew emulators of older computer and gaming systems have been developed for the PS2.

Sony released a -based operating system for the PS2 in a package that also includes a,, adapter and HDD. Currently, Sony's online store states that the Linux kit is no longer for sale in.

However, as of July 2005, the European version was still available. The kit boots by installing a proprietary interface, the, which is on a region-coded, so the European and North America kits only work with a PS2 from their respective regions. In and Australia, the PS2 came with a free interpreter on the bundled demo disc for some time. This allows simple programs to be created for the PS2 by the end-user. This was included in a failed attempt to circumvent a UK tax by defining the console as a 'computer' if it contained certain software.

A port of the project and, an alternative -based distribution, are also available for the PS2. Using homebrew programs (e.g. 'SMS Media Player' ) it is possible to listen to various audio file formats (,,,,, ), and watch various video formats (/,,, in ) using the console. Media can be played from any device connected to the console i.e. External ///hard disk drive ( only), the internal hard disk on early revision consoles, optical CD-R(W)/DVD±R(W) disks (modded systems or patched disks), or network shares ( or PS2 host: protocol).

Homebrew programs can be launched directly from a memory card on unmodified consoles by using certain software that takes advantage of a long known and used exploit, dealing with the boot part of the EE/IOP process (Independence). A more recent development (May 2008) called Free McBoot allows homebrew programs to be launched without a trigger disc required by the older exploit. This also allows use of homebrew on unmodded systems without a functional disc drive. However, installation of the exploit to each individual memory card requires an already exploited/modded system in order to launch the installer. Copying from one memory card to another will not work.

This newer exploit will not work on the very newest PS2s (SCPH-9000x model with BIOS 2.30 and up) but will work on all models prior to that. The newest versions of Free McBoot, version 1.90 and newer, also have the ability to install and boot from both Sony and non-Sony HDDs when using a 'fat' PS2 and network adapter. This support is called Free HDBoot or FHDB. With a few minor issues, it is now possible to game entirely from the HDD, without needing to use the optical disc drive nor a physical memory card. Homebrew programs can be used to play patched backups of original PS2 DVD games on unmodified consoles, and to install retail discs to an installed hard drive on older models (ESR,,, Open PS2 Loader).
