Mega cool, I’m curious if there’s a way to burn the ISO to a disc and get this playing on a physical console?

You'd need to hack the console to get it to load a burned disc, but if you can do that, you can also just load it from USB.

Though I guess you could burn it to a disk anyway purely for the sake of authenticity.

USB on the PS2 is limited to 1.0 or 1.1 speeds, so a disc may work better anyway.

Combined with https://github.com/CTurt/FreeDVDBoot, I think it would be possible

FreeMcBoot on a memory card + USB flash drive (or internal disk) is a popular option to play on real hardware. Saves wear and tear on the optical drive too.

I have sat on a freemcboot mem card for probably 6 years now. I’ll get around to it eventually…

Why use physical disc instead of some optical drive mod

ODEs aren't common for the PS2 because they already support flash drives, network shares, and (for fats) full size hard drives.
