Hi Im having trouble putting some codebreaker cheats on a game that has a ntsc/pal options in the beginning before the game starts.


it looks like whenever Ive done choosing the options it restarts and causing the codes not to function. Is any other way I can put the codes

other than purchasing a game w/o ntsc/pal option and dont cheat ^^

thanks in advance

Hi,
Although the game has a Pal/NTSC selector, it does not change from being pal to ntsc or vice versa. A PAL game is a PAL game, and even if you chose NTSC at the start, it would still be a PAL game. And the same goes for NTSC.
The PAL/NTSC selector is only there to change the display resolution and the fps (frames per second) to adjust to your TV, and it is only a reference, The filesystem of the game is still the same. If the game is listed as PAL, it is PAL, and if it is listed as NTSC, it is NTSC
PAL=PAL
NTSC=NTSC
Regardless of the selector at the start of the game, the files system of the game is different, and so a PAL game is not compatible with a NTSC version of codebreaker, and vice versa
SO, use codebreaker NTSC for NTSC games
And, codebreaker PAL for PAL games

just an update, I really think whenever I started to choose in the ntsc/pal selector it resets. I tried ntsc and pal cheat codes neither one works

Is there anything else I should do? or theres nothing I can do?

Its as simple as this really:
Look at the box of your game, does it say pal or ntsc?
If you have no box for whatever reason, does the game run in 480i, or 576i?
480i=NTSC
576i=PAL

For a pal game, use COdeBreaker PAL Version
For a NTSC game, use Codebreaker NTSC version, and it should definietely work, if not, you are doing something wrong

Another way is to stick the disk in your PC

Right click the drive with the disc in, and explore

If you have SLUS,SCUS its NTSC
If you have SLES, SCES its PAL

What is the name of your backup?
