| Deleted User | No problems in Europe, of course.
As we all know Europe is more adventure minded then America (more FPS minded) and Japan (more RPG minded).
That's why BS3, Syberia and all others are in Europe on PS2 as well.

Eh, I was planning to buy the PC version anyway--it should be cheaper.

There is an adapter for the PC that allows you to use the PS2 joypad for PC games.

Status : Online | Better yet, get a Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Power joypad for the PC - much better quality than the PS2 dualshock. But note - for both of these, the PC game itself needs to support gamepads, or you won't be able to use them (unless you can get the thrustmaster mouse and keyboard-emulation software to work, which I couldn't be bothered with)...

Status : Online | Thanks for the tips. I will probably buy a joypad to play it with, I imagine BS3 will support them considering it's a multi-platform release.
