Not to nitpick, but I didn't claim that the US PS2 would not play the PAL DVD.

What I said was it wouldn't convert the PAL video stream into NTSC. So if you have a PAL television it will play. If you have a NTSC television it will not be watchable. If you have a dual mode television, (like they sell in HK) it should be good.

(Actually they usually sell PAL/NTSC tvs for all over the world except for the US. Go fig? It's like a $5 chip)

Are you sure that the HK PS2 will do a 2:3 frame multiplication for ntsc televisions? if so, that's great!

DVD Region Free? LOL! It's already there since v2 !!

Mine's v2.21 and I tested that before and works pretty fine, even on v7 (dvd drive v2.12U).

The last one is v2.16 (v8).

I want codes for v2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and now v2.16.

Now if this player is independent from DVD driver (not need to go to browser and press X to play the DVD-Video disc), so is really something new and will be universal (compatible with all versions and models, even future driver releases).

Q: I tried zipping a Game save from GTA3: Vice City but it said ?This type of file unsupported?. I also
tried to copy it to another memory card but it came up with the same message.
A: Unfortunately, some game save data cannot be zipped or copied. This is down to the individual game and
some game save data will not be compatible with the GameShark Memory Manager.

Well that's very dissapointing

The wierd thing about all this is will this new Gameshark be compatable with Action Replay 2 and the old Gameshark? Three cheat code devices for the PS2. Action Replay 2, Codebreaker and Gameshark. This is getting very strange. :confused:

After looking at the manual that Gradius posted. I see some similarities in it and Codebreaker. Hmmm....

Oh God....why even bother with this POS???!!! :confused:

This is the part of the manual that cracks me up:

Q: I have a two DVD movie and when I eject the first DVD to insert the second DVD the screen goes black
and does nothing.
Q: When Ifve finished watching one DVD can I put another straight in?
A: Due to the way DVD Region Free works you must always re-load it before playing any DVD. This includes the
2nd or 3rd DVD of the same movie.

Damn...so basically. If you're watching Lord of the Rings or any 2-3 disc movie, you have to stop watching the movie, reload teh GS2v3, then start your next disc.

Waste of time!

I not sure. I just know HK PS2 can play PAL DVD. But I think the output should be in PAL. Because I have a PAL/NTSC TV in HK.

I suspect this too (no dogle anymore) but I only believe when the thing is out, and I don't see that yet.

I'm dying for a rip of gs3 around :p
