First, there's the difference in broadcast transmission standards. In North America (US, Canada %26amp; Mexico) %26amp; Japan uses the NTSC standard while Europe (UK, ect.) uses the PAL standard.
NTSC runs at 60 Mhz while PAL runs at 50 Mhz, which results in an 18.67% speed difference as well as issues of colors being displayed.
Second, there's the regional issues to deal with. Difference regions have different encoding standards (mostly region locks), similar to DVD region coding. This is mostly why US players can't play Japanese games on their systems.
If you really want to get it to work, there's pretty much three options.
1) Get a bootloader... a bootloader is a program that does the conversions between regions for you. It's practically a "Software Mod" as you don't have to modify your system.
2) Install a Mod Chip... a bit more expensive %26amp; difficult, but it can handle the regional work for you at the hardware level.
3) Buy a UK TV %26amp; PS1 to play the game on... The expensive option as you'll need to buy a power converter as well for both, but it's the least problematic option there is.
If you don't like these options, then you should try to stay within the US when buying games from eBay to avoid such issues.
This may not be the answer you want to hear, but it's what you'll have to face when going international.Will Playstion 1 game from the uninted kingdom work on an original united states playstation 1?Nope it will not it has a diffrent version
