it should play but you will need a tv that is ntsc compatible or it will play in black and white.if your tv is quite old then it may not have this facility.


or are you saying that it doesnt play at all ?

It won't work, regardless of the TV.
There might be an illegal hardware modification of the PS2 that can solve the problem.


Some stores might exchange your game for a european one.

youi'll need to have th unit chipped amd then buy a ps2-RGB scart cable, (one with all the pins present) to connect to the tv's av input

with the help of my husband a PS2 'person'... :-)


if you have the old Ps2 , the nmost US games will work with a 'SWAP MAGIC' disc...these are available from www.psxservices.co.uk amongst others...it involves taking the front tray off of the console but this is a simple task...then you simply start the console as usual with the boot disc and then use the tool provided to swap the discs over, the machine thinks it is running a PAL game....have used this for a variety of games with no problems , but be aware that this doesn't work with 100% of NTSC games.
