If I play an imported game on my PAL PS2 will the signal be in black and white ?
My TV does not surpport 60hz.

Buy a new TV, or buy a TV card for your PC that supports PAL 60.

Tv card ?
PC ?
I bought a NTSC - PAL converter, but I think that only works if you have a NTSC PS2, not if you have an NTSC Game.

Heres my situation

And if using that converter doesn't work, then as I said, either you buy a new TV, or you buy a TV card for your computer. There's also the possibility of using a VGA box (to plug regular AV devices such as a console to a computer screen), but they are hard to come by (it's <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5232280210&category=3761">this</a> or <a href="http://www.lik-sang.com/info.php?category=219&products_id=3235&">this</a>).

sorry for double posting
ok, I found a matsui tele and it says 50hz/60hz on the back of the tele
Ive used this tele before and it was always B&W when I chose it to be 60hz
Im not sure what to do. All the other teles have 50hz, but this one has 60hz on teh back. Does this mean that the import games will be in colour ?
And how can I check if this has 60hz ?

Try with the adapter and without. Is there a scart plug on your tv? Are you using it or the coaxial connectors (yellow+red+white)?

I heard of an RGB Scart cable would put my games in colour, is this right ?

You can always try. Here, we almost always use the scart plug in the first place anyway.
