    You don't state where you bought it from, but the fact remains that if you bought a standard (unmodified) PS2 in this country then it will not play imported games.

    You could try something like this if you really wanted to play imports, but I have no personal experience of them and can't say how reliable (or not) they are.

    PS2s are region compatable (like DVDs), If you purchased your console in a UK Shop then it won't play games from other countires, (unless you have had it chipped)

    Thanks for the help, seems i got carried away with the bargain price, and won't be able to play it on Ps2, standard silver slimline bought in uk. I will re-wrap and return it.

    Thanks again for the help:D
