with gamecube, you need a "FreeLoader" to play imported games...what about the ps2? is there a specific CD or mod I need to play import games, or can a PS2 play games from any regions?

Question #2: I have a back-up of an import PS2 game (Japanese), and I'm wondering if such a CD/mod is necessary to play it or can I play it without any import problems?

Question #3: I read on a site that a Gameshark 2 can work exactly like Swap Magic for back-up DVDs...is one better than the other? because there's a gameshark 2 available in the Best Buy a couple miles from my house, but if it won't work as efficiently as Swap Magic, I might order it online (since Swap Magic isn't available in any of the stores near my area).

Gameshark will not work alone.
There is no Freeloader for ps2
imported agmes play with swap magic
To play ps2 backups or Foriegn releases
(without modchip or opening
your ps2) you will need
swap magic disks And slidecard or slidetool
or fliptop here is there website
http://www.swapmagic3.com
(you probably wont find it in stores)

2)-Modchip or swapmagic either will work

3)-Gameshark wont work you will need s.m. discs
