A Question of Region Codes
#1
Hello. I only found out about this project recently, and so far, I'm very impressed. :3 There's just a question I'd like to ask before I consider using it.

I live in Australia, and as such, I have a PAL PS2. I'm mainly considering this because, due to region codes, there are many games that were not released with a PAL format that my PS2 can't play, and that I... well, really want to play. xD

I was wondering if the PSCX2 could play PAL region games at all? Or if having PAL region games and whatnot will effect anything. (In particular, if it will affect trying to later play games that aren't PAL.)

Sorry if it's a really stupid/obvious question, or if it's already been asked and I missed it. >>;;

PCSX2 plays all regions. Remember that you have to own a game to legally play it Wink

Haha, yes of course! xD I'd just buy the non-PAL games online, from overseas. :3 I've been meaning to for ages but with no means to play them, I didn't bother.
... So as you can imagine, I'm thrilled! xD

Thank you! x333

Remember, display format (PAL/NTSC) is NOT DVD region code.

No you can't,the PlayStation 2(not pcsx2)can play only games from the region of the PS2.You can play every region PS2 game on any PS2 if you have Swap Magic,Modchip,FMCB+ESR,Cogswap,Memour32....

With PS2 without any of those:
PAL PS2 - only PAL PS2 games
NTSC(usa) PS2 - only NTSC(usa) PS2 games
NTSC-J PS2 - only NTSC-J PS2 games

I don't know if this applies to games on hdd or usb.
