    So I've been looking for a PAL format PS2 game (Fire Pro Wrestling Returns) but a PAL copy is really hard to find compared to the NTSC version so I need to know how to run NTSC games on my PAL PS2. Anyone have any ideas?

    You could try and get an NTSC PS2 so your able to play it (it kinda would be a waste getting it for just one game) or you could get a PS3 which is region free apart from Persona 4 so you can play all your PS1 (if you have any) and PS2 games as well as every PS3 game from any region apart from Persona 4.

    Very few PS3 consoles can play PS2 games. There's really just one generation of them that has the chipset required to do it.

    Which type of PS2 do you have? It's easier to bypass the region lock if you have the fat PS2 as opposed to the slim PS2
