I have a slim PS2 and I live in the US, which region is US and whats the difference between the 2? Are the games the same? Will my PS2 Slim with swap magic play both regions or only 1?

Thanx

The US region is NTSC, and the European is PAL. Swap magic should have the option to boot both of these.

I dont know if that answers your question or not

What's up I just posted a Question just like this a few days ago and no one helped me, but I found out on my own. Here is what happen to me, I got a PAL game and burned it after I rebuilt it with cd/vdgen and loaded up swap magic v3.3 and put the game in and just pushed x to load the game and when it did the screen started to jump up and down but the game loaded, Now I know how to rebuild games so I knew that was not it that's when I posted my question, But no one help me so I just started trying thing and find out that if it's a PAL game when I'm rebuilding it in cd/vdgen at the spot there it asks for the license area put Europe for PAL games and America for NTSC games, Then when you load up swap magic at the load screen change the video mode from normal to NTSC, I don't Know why you don't change it to PAL since it's a PAL game but I tried that and the screen Just jumps, But If you change it to NTSC it should load up just fine, That's what I did and the PAL game ( Time splitters-future perfect works PERFECT, good luck
