Hi, thanks for all the replies. Went to a shop today and was told ntsc U/C will work on asian set ps3, is that true? I doubt it since NTSC U/C is for US/Canada if I am not mistaken...but the guy sounds very confident it will work and guaranteed it. thought?

Nope it doesn't work. I have the ntsc u/c ff xii original & it doesn't run on asian ps3 - "This disc cannot be started due to region restrictions". (kinda regret selling the old ps2 tongue.gif ) - Pre-ordered the FF XII International Zodiac Job System (Asia) , due out Aug 7th. Not sure if it has english menu support, though.

The one scheduled on the 9th is the JP version according to Play-Asia. I pre-ordered the Asian version which is on the 7th. Dunno if there's any difference but it's cheaper tongue.gif

Received my copy of the zodiac job system today - sadly no english text support although game voice is in english. Gotta look for some translation help at Gamesfaq i guess tongue.gif Game manual is fully JP but there's an extra sheet w/ chinese & english explanation for the game basics.

Will give it a go through trial and error i guess, thank god Odin's Sphere for its ENG support (korean version).


p/s: Forgive the poor screenshot - crappy ipaq phone lol.

Another kick-ass PS2 rpg game. Just glad the Korean version happened to have full english support. For FFXII, guess i'll try to play it - till SE release another asian version w/ English support sad.gif

Not for the moment i'm afaid sad.gif hopefully there'll be a version w/ Eng text support before FF XIII arrives on PS3, maybe the Korean version, who knows? Anyway God of War & God of War II will be released (NTSC/J, Asia) this month - one of the PS2 title i've been dying to play on my PS3 rclxms.gif

Well for us FF fans that don't own both ps2 & ps3 consoles, we're pretty much screwed eh? biggrin.gif Either get a US PS3/ PS2 or modded ps2 then? Just looking for ways to play english version ff12 on asian ps3 that's all - tongue.gif Although fewer nice PS2 titles are being released these days, there are still a few great games that i'd like to experience e.g. God of War 2, Odin's Sphere & FF XII International Zodiac - I think some of us here share something in common: trying to play the last remaining must-have PS2 titles on their respective Asian PS3 set. I believe this thread wouldn't have even existed if TS happens to own both PS2 & PS3 consoles.
