Thread: NTSC console + SDTV + EU/PAL PS3 games = 80028F10

Didn't know where to put this, so guess it goes here. I've been looking for a list like this because I'm probably one of the rare ones who still uses SDTV, and not HDTV. This list is perfect for those of us who still have SDTV's, and can only play the EURO versions of some 3.41/3.55 PS3/PSN games.

I don't know if I should post the source since it comes directly from the official ps community site. Mods let me know.

====================================

Assuming you're on a jailbroken console, editing the PARAM.SFO to allow the resolution would probably solve the issue for most/all of these--I've never installed demos, so I'm not sure about those.

I remember doing that to get a EUR copy of Saints Row 2 to work on SD.

Lol, I had the same problem last night...I downloaded Folklore EUR and I got an SDtv.

Exactly what Sid Roams said.
Just check both 480 and 480 (16:9) options in each .sfo files.

How would one do this? Would I need specific programs?

Simply load the .SFO file and check the box 480 boxes, then save.
