Default does the playstayion work?

Hi.
We are just packing for the big move.
Does a UK PS2 work with a Canadaian telivision?
Any other tips on what to bring for the kids?
Thanks

There have been many discussions on this so a quick search should bring up some info for you, but in short the answer is no as far as i am aware.
I think the only way is to bring a UK TV as well and buy one of those transformers for both items.

Again, as far as i know the UK games will only work on a UK Playstation coupled to a UK TV.

I noticed that you have also put this question in the immigration section, so just a word of warning that this isn't really a good idea to have the same question in different sections.

Yep still fine for tomorrow.
Let me know about the kids and if they aren't coming maybe we won't bring ours either.
