Default PAL (UK Standard)?
Hi
Im currently looking at buying Civilization 2 for playstation one it says its PAL (UK Standard). Im not sure what that means. I know depending on the country the hook ups and stuff is different but i was wondering if the disc will still work on a Canadian PS1. If someone could help me out it would be appreciated. Thanks

Default Re: PAL (UK Standard)?
I can tell you right now, that UK copy of Civilization 2 will not ork on a Canadian PSOne.

PAL and NTSC are television standards- the UK and the majority of Europe uses PAL while North America uses NTSC. They also use these titles to say which market games are meant for. The main reason it won't work, however, is region coding on the disc- it will only work on a PSOne made for the UK/ European market.
