I just would have perrfered it on my ps2, thats all, plus I heard this has some graphical glitches on other threads and that this is marked as "In GAME" in the compatibility list. Last question, how do you go full screen?

Double click or Alt+Enter or Config=>Emulation Settings=>GS Window=>the full screen options

And in the compatibility list I only see only the JP version of the game tested long ago

I went on the pcsx2 website and it said "Forbidden Siren 2" and had the European flag and had the orange "In Game" status. The game runs fine though, I mean there is this graphical glitch that is in every level but its not that bad and it doesnt really phase me when im playing. I had a good time playing it today, clocked in an hour and a half lol.

I just now found a Ntsc to Pal and vice-versa converter on Amazon, its says it supports video game consoles and has an AV cord input, would this fix the issue on my TV?

It will fix the color problem but it won't fix freezing problems...you said that the game freeze at some point on the PS2.

PS.There are MUCH cheaper alternatives than than that

GSM selector, whats that? I never saw that before. Is that like an ELF file that changes the video output?

The TV have nothing to do why any kind of freezing problems with the PS2

The problem is either the disk or the game just don't work with ESR.
There are also some compatibility modes in the ESR gui which are needed for some games

Launch CDVD – Will run the disk normally or with the enabled modes

Launch App – will start elf file from mc?:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF or mc?:/B?-DATA-SYSTEM/BOOT.ELF

Launch OSDSYS – Return to the FMCB menu

Disable ESR after first IOP reset – Turn off ESR after booting the game(some games need this enabled,otherwise they don't work or freeze somewhere)

Use Synchronous Mode – Some games need this

Spoof Media Type – Ignore the media type( + or - )...some games need it

Ok so this GSM program can possibly force the original PAL display of the game? And if this actually fixes that issue, then ill try different modes on ESR and see which one works. So one last question, how do I add a new program to FreeMCBoot?

It can force any region game to work on PAL or NTSC color mode
Also about FMCB
