    It's not even out yet.
    But I'm pretty sure you couldn't.
    The itching sensation is a good thing.

    you cant do that since the uk playstation is on PAL system, you could however "chip" your playstation to make it play all formats at a local dealer.

    Chips are mighty expensive the last time I checked, though.

    you can only play it if you get your ps2 chipped, but there are rumours that this can damage your ps2, however im not sure if this is true or not.

    it is ture but it is a risk you take if you wanna play either the cheaper fake games or the brand spanking new foreign games (which may never come out in your territory) but you should be ok if the chip fitter is experienced enough!

    My friend said something like 170 Australian Dollars; you mentioned a UK purchase so conversion goodness: that's about 72 pounds.

    Ah, I think you can get them a lot cheaper now.

    Also, isn't PS3 meant to be regional encoding free?

    Just be patient o_O If you want to import games, work towards something that won't eventually be released in Europe :P

    I'm fairly certain you can buy an adapter of some sort.

    My PS2's been chipped since the chips for ps2 were first released, I've never had a problem with my PS2 (and I bought mine day of release) exempt of course from the basic problems all the machines experience. The only reason I got my ps2 chipped was for SNES Station, the chance to play SNES games on the PS2 without actually having to buy a SNES and it was worth it just for that piece of software alone.
