Surely if you own something you can do what you want with it though? Obviously not breach of copyright etc. but its your system, how can they stop you? | |

as said i think it is illegal to actually chip the ps2. sony took some sort of injunction out to stop the chips being sold IIRC | |

i think its acctually illegal to buy the chips in this country, so you just buy it from an american website, and if you know someone who can do it! even better | |

It is legal to do yes - its only like modding a computer isnt it. Just scrubs your warranty etc. | |

Is playing imported games legal? Not having a go just wondering. Suppose if you paid the correct import taxes then there shouldnt be a problem. | |
