PS2 and XBox - do they work in oz?
apologies, bit of a boring question, just want to know is it worth sending them over, are they compatible (or whatever the word is) over in oz?

Getting it chipped might also be an option.

Yes, as stated they work fine BUT you cannot buy Australian games because they do not work. You could have games sent over from the UK when they come out.

I'm surprised, they didn't on ours (Xbox only) and Xbox e-mailed us with a details response as to why ! It may have had something to do with the fact we had bought it a month before we left (a newer model). Either that or we were totally conned !
