Open PS2 Loader USB Thumb Drive Compatibility List

So I've dusted up my old Playstation 2 console and installed Freemcboot with OPL on it, I'll share all the games I've tested on a 3.0 USB Stick, consider this as a reference for those who don't want to install HDD on the back of their PS2 console and just want to play and boot their games from a USB stick via OPL.

Games are tested on OPL Version 0.85 and a 3.0 Sandisk USB Stick Thumb Drive
