Hi there,

I need some advice regarding my choice of PS2. Is it better to get a NTSC PS2 or a PAL one? (My TV supports 60 Hz)

I understand from reading the forum for the past few weeks that the Messiah 2 pro is the modchip of choice :D, and I was wondering if this could be fitted to both NTSC and PAL versions of the PS2.

Finally, which are the best/current version numbers for the US NTSC and UK PAL PS2's?

Thanks in advance!

PS I don't know if my local importer is reliable (G-Force in Glasgow). If anyone has bought a PS2 or had a modchip installed please let me know (good or bad experiences).

Hi m8,

I've just bought a UK PAL Version 7 and had a Messiah 2 fitted. It's great and is amazing on my 36" 100Hz widescreen Toshiba with component video and digital surround sound!

I sent it to Techtrix who charge £95 including secure courier return in only a couple of days. I was very pleased with their work and emails letting you know what is going on. They supply brand new already chipped PS2s for about £260 I think.

Have fun :p
