Hey Guys

A quick question. I have a plystation 2 in Australia, and am eagerly awaiting GTA Vice City. The major problem is, that the Australian game has been cenesored so that a lot of the good stuff is removed. If I buy a copy of Vice City from the UK, can I use it on my machine, or are PS2 games zoned like DVD's ?

Cheers

So, is the UK PAL as well as Europe. I am pretty sure that the Australian standard is PAL, so that would be great news.

Thanks

Hey, unfortunatly you wouldn't be able to do that as PAL games only work on PAL machines which are generally available throughout Europe, but not beyond. you'd have to work out a way to play imports onto your PS 2 and the usual way of doing this is by chipping your console.
