Usually you would need a stepdown convertor, but with a slimline PS2, the power supply is external so all you need to do is swap the 2-pin plug lead with any UK 3-pin plug lead. Voila! The easiest way to play US games is to get a US PS2.
If you have a old-style US PS2 - it will probably blow up if you try the above. A stepdown convertor is then recommeded. :wink:

*Breathes* You have Kingdom Hearts 2???
Those of you who don't know, I love Kindom Hearts.
Oh god..I have to wait till May :cry:
It's probably the game that I'm most looking forward to getting. Ive waited 4 years! 4 years! I'm so glad that it's coming out so soon.
Other games. Project Zero 3 Tormented. My dear sister is looking forward to purchasing that game this weekend. I will cower behin her as she plays it. I don't have the courage for survival horrors

Now I'm jealous. :wink: The stingy person within me, suggests that I wait for it to drop to at least half price. I hear that a certain 'sister' from Project Zero 2 makes a cameo appearance in PZ3. Tell me how it is!

SWAT 4: Stechkov Syndicate (addon pack). It's got VoIP support now, and it's my first time trying it. I still feel a bit embarrased about what people must think about me talking into a PC. :mrgreen:
Still, it helps to co-ordinate no end. Although so far I've only played co-op games on clan servers, where the general rule is that there's a specific clan leader who gives the orders (the game has support for choosing a group leader to give orders).
New weapons ang game modes are fun. I need to get into this a bit more.

Yes, a certain sister does appear in this game. This game seems to connect all previous ones very well. I was also very impressed with the graphics and features in the game. The story so far is very gripping.
Something I hope you enjoy neptune2venus

Daxter arrived this morning, trying to get my bro off his PSP so I can play it now.

Why is it that siblings always get in the way?
Ive been unable to get my sister off the ps2 for a whole week. I have war wounds from where Ive tried to snatch the controler off her, or pretend to turn off her game.
I know thats mean...but the reaction is just worth it.

Got Sid Meier's Pirates! for the Xbox. I played a bit earlier and named the hero Squall..because it sounds like a seadog name. Currently I killed off the best ranking pirate. Yay!

Finally got my hands on Project Zero 3 for the PS2 - although I wish it was on the Xbox. Those photos take up too much room on my memory card, although I have 5 of them.. :?

I got Dragon Quest VIII for my US PS2 (minus the VIII part in Europe). Why did I choose the US version over the UK version?
- Free FFXII demo!
- No borders
The game was second hand and little did I expect to find dog hairs inside the box. Do people even look after their games? :?

The PAL version has a full screen conversion without the borders
, hopefully KH2 and FF XII will also have no borders in their PAL versions.Today I've been playing a bit more Ratchet: Gladiator, it's not as good as the rest but shotting wave after wave of enemies with big guns is fun

So DQ has a 60hz mode? I heard that it doesn't and that it was a 'optimised' conversion ie. with borders but full speed. Square-Enix games always have poor conversions unless they suddenly changed their ways! It's good that they even released something here..
Anyway talking of Square-Enix, I got Grandia 3 today. It has a shiny cover and is on 2 DVDs.

The first PAL released Square game for PS2, The Bouncer is full screen, no borders, no 60hz option just like DQ. I think every other one of their releases has the borders :S, I wonder why they stopped doing good conversions after The Bouncer?
