Exploring Tartarus becomes a genuine nightmare and battles take an eternity to get through. The PAL version of Dragon Quarter removes the Restart mechanic altogether, forcing players to beat the game in a single playthrough. While this is technically possible, DQ was blatantly not designed with this in mind so the European release of the game is ultimately much harder to actually complete.

By installing a security code, Sony can restrict the games that they want you to play. This is done for many reasons. First, to ensure that the games you play on your unit are transmitted to the highest standards possible. This will only happen if the version of the game you are playing has been specifically developed with your PAL television in mind.
Most gameplayers would be extremely irate if they purchased a game from their local dealer only to find that it played in black and white or produced a flickering picture.
Perhaps no picture at all. Second, world wide games would see the market blitzed with copies and pirate discs that are extremely inferior in both sound and visuals, thus damaging Sony's reputation for quality products. Finally, copyright, censorship laws and controlled promotion would be thrown into confusion, damning a self regulated market to stricter government enforcement's.
There are three ways to bypass the security chip but non can be recommended due to the damage that may be caused to your unit by these actions and any such actions would render your year long warranty invalid. Sony discovered these foul moves and altered the way in which the country code is checked therefore these methods may only work with pre units. Switch on the machine without closing the lid and go to the CD screen. Insert an object into the small button at the back right of the compartment to fool your machine that the lid is closed.
Music tracks will load from your disc including the country code. When the disc stops spinning remove it and replace with an import CD. Exit the screen and your import will load up. The second method involves switching your PAL CD with an import CD while the disc is still moving after the country code has been loaded but this method will severely damage your disc drive should not be practiced.
The third method is to contact an electronic establishment and ask them to solder a bypass over the security chip. Once again this action will invalidate your warranty. What do you need help on?

Boards PlayStation 2 Anyone have experience with playing pal games on a ntsc console?
I already figured out the region locking problem and know it shouldn't be discussed here for reasons, but I'm wondering how the pal format would work. I've never imported a pal game before and was wondering what might happen it I were to hook up the system running a pal game to a modern north American HDTV as well as passing the signal through a framemeister and north American CRT.
The game I want to import is a ps1 game too but the way. Anyone experienced in importing pal games? I'm really about to pull the trigger on this game. I'm just weary how pal will work. Because I think all PS4 games run 60hz now.
I can understand PS4 games running just fine. I was going to get a ps1 pal game though. I'm looking at x-com terror from the deep which was apparently only released in pal for consoles. PStrife 3 years ago 4. It still was not a perfect solution as you had to quit at the menu before closing the system, the save file did still manage to somehow corrupt before I finished it right near the end as well.
As for the PS1 importing, I really don't know. Alright thanks for that input. What was the extra memory card for though and does mixing pal and ntsc games on the same memory card cause issues? I think I am going to pull the trigger on x-com terror from the deep and see how it runs.
