hi

i have a messiah chip in my ps2 and i'm going to the states soon will the us games i bring home work and what is the boot procedure (i looked the sticky but couldn't find anything)
thanx

Messiah or Messiah 2? Either should be able to boot if you back up your discs first. I would also recommend you patch them from NTSC to PAL (look in the stickies cause I know youll ask).

if he is coming TO the US shouldnt he patch from PAL to NTSC?? and, shouldnt the PS2 NTSC games he has work fine because he has messiah and will be on a NTSC TV?

I think that should answer your question.

Also that chip wont change the settings on his ps2 region. Thats another modification altogether.

so if i buy the original games i still need to back them up?

i use a scart cable with a tv that is 60 mhz compatible so if i do need to back them up do i still need to patch them from nstc to pal?


sorry of being a pain

thanx

Answer that when you get a chance. If you have a messiah 2 I dont think you need to back them up or anything. Just play like normal. If that scart doesnt work for you then I suggest making a backup and patching. But I think youll probably be fine.

just a messiah i think

thanks for ur help

With the old Messiah youll probably have to back up your games for it to play them.
