Yes they must be patched, try megagames.com

yep, it has nothing to do with what machine you have it is a copy protection from the cd, just like the region codes for dvd (only this is hardware related) but you cannot insert pal (european games) in ntsc(amarican) psx and visa versa

the patch file you need is a converter file like pal to ntsc
found on the site mentioned above

your best and easy solution is the NAPALM patch
