Page 1 of Can PS2 play region 1 DVDs?

I have a PS2 and was wondering if it can play DVDs.

Im new here and haven`t really looked around the forum so please don`t shoot me down if its common knowledge to all of you.

Thanks

You need a disc called DVD REGION X.I dont know much about it but it is reviewed in the hardwear section in this site.

For about £26 you can order the DVD REGION X disk with remote control from http://www.dvdcrave.com. You need a PS2 memory card for it though.
Ordered one from them myself and it came through fine and works okay.

I heard that HMV was selling a bundle with the DVD Region X, Remote Control and RGB Scart cable for £25, anyone confirm ?

yes. just bought it myself good value considering that region-x on it`s own is £19.99!

Hello. I am very new to this so please bear with me... I bought the DVD Region X thingy, and I`ve tried playing a region 1 dvd and its in black and white. Can I fix this by simply getting a RGB scart lead or is the problem with my TV? You see Im not sure if its NTSC compatible. It is only 2 years old or so and is widescreen, its not the best known or expensive of brands though.... Any ideas or suggestions most greatfully received. thanks in advance.

If it appears in black and white, that means your TV is not NTSC compatible. You can solve it by getting a RGB SCART lead.
