Questions about JAP/ASIAN versions of games

what region are these Asian PS2 games coded for? Do they work on Japanese systems only or is there a specific region code (and hence PS2 models) for them?

 

Yes, the original Japanese versions are the way to go. The price difference is sometimes non-existent, i.e. I usually see the JP and Asian versions priced the same (this is just what I have seen).

As far as region coding, the one or 2 Asian versions I have [:-(], still require a modded system to play. They won't boot on a US or European system (again, this may be different between the games themselves).

NTSC J can be Japan or Asian release

But some games has some minimal differences.

Gran Turismo 4 Prologue, for exemple. The tests have differences between the Japan and Asia release.

For example, in one particular test, in japanese version you use a car, and on the asian a totally different one. This reflects on lap times also, so they are different too.

As far as we know these Asian PS2 titles work perfectly well on a Japanese system, hence Asian/Japanese PS2 machines and games must have the same regional coding.
Ballacks, looks like I'm in the Shizer again. I'm off to read the rules... :typin:

 

Holy crap this thread is ancient.

 

Asia are encoded NTSC|J , so i think they work fine on a japanese system

 

When you post in threads like these, you're supposed to post the same thing 3 times in a row. It's in the rules.

 

some weird bug. i only posted once

 

People, remove your dublicate replies, it shouldn´t be that hard

 

Seems like a weird bug in most of the older posts...

 

I tried to delete , but they're still showing.
