Answer» I know that dvds have region restrictions on them but can any one tell me if games do?No, they will all work. A pc is a pc no matter where it is. Language is another thing.I was thinking that but didn't want to go spend the money just to find out I couldn't play it.
Thankssorry to object but games do have region restricitions.however, IM not quite sure if u mean PC games, or console games. if its PC games, i dont know. but if its conlsole games (xbox,ps2,n64, etc.) then yes they do have regional settings. the two types are NTSC and PAL. NTSC is used in north and south america while PAL is used in europe and all other OVERSEAS continents. the two are not compatible.Good point Homer.I was wanting to know about computer games. Guess I should have stated that.there was a little flop of a game called descent 3 in in 1999. it is an ok game, with two fantastic predecessors (D1 and D2) probably no one here has heard of it. marketing basically failed to lift it off the ground, dev for d4 was cancelled, what a shame etc. but, on topic, they had something that made the game useless in europe, with different languages it would show an error message and fail. And what i find quite disturbing is that they actually put this in on purpose. . apparently last TIME the game wasn't such a hit in europe so they put the error in.\ but i don't think anyone will do that again. Those were the days. http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/listi LOVE decent i used to play it at school during my elementary days. there were like 20 comps all networked together and we all used to play decent 1+2. i was second best, i just could not beat that korean kid...
ive actually been trying to find it but i havent come across it yet.Is D that one game where you're this girl in some mansion where theres like, dead bodies in closets and men in armor that will throw you down wells?
When a game is region coded cant you just buy a mod chip? It worked with PS1. I wonder if they still make them. I hope they make them for DS lite, i want the black one that came out in Europe. The white one is ugly.i have a modded xbox, and i have only heard of CONVERTING from PAL to NTSC and visa versa. not some chip that makes it compatible with both.
and no, Decent is a first-person-shooter where ur in a little one man space ship and all u the stuff u see is thru the cockpit of the space ship. u destroy enemy space ships (not men in ARMOUR) with an arsenal of lasers and missles.I love that game! I used to play it all the time too I lost the disk when I moved though... Good game there.
