hi, I'm currently thinking of buying an NTSC Playstation 2, I have some questions though.

1. If I buy an NTSC Playstation 2 Will I be able to play games online with it?????

2. Anyone know where I can buy a step-down convertor

3. Is it worth it??? Razz

thanks,

I love NTSC stuff and buy it all the time.

(Of course I'm an American though. Wink )

Honestly, i'm not sure if you'd do any better with NTSC gamers, than you are with PAL gamers. I'd check out the UKRockers who sometimes come here though. They'd know.

The cool thing about getting an NTSC system would be the option to go online over dialup and broadband for games that support it. I would only get an NTSC playstation 2 if there are games you can't play online with other countries or are not available in Europe for instance. If your into games that already have cross region online play like MOH Rising Sun, Ghost Recon etc etc then you'd be good to just stick with PAL. So all depends on what your interested in playing that would force a need to pick up an NTSC system.

You could mod your system to play imports which would let you play non-dnas games but, then the mod might get your ps2's registration number banned from the DNAS central servers for games that require dnas. So might wanna be careful about that stuff.
