At the risk of sounding harsh, this is an extremely rare problem and this is officially an English speaking message board. I don't really feel this is worth having another stickied MW thread for.

There are similar problems playing certain games on Live. Burnout for example, you have to be using the right framerate settings to play with Americans (Burnout Takedown, PAL 50) or to even get online (BF2:MC PAL 50) or at least that's my experience. It's sloppy localisation on the part of the developers but like I say, it doesn't crop up too often and is easily remedied. It's not like Jet Set Radio is blazing up the retail charts at the moment anyway.

It's good to know the solution though if anyone else has the same problem and asks. I'll leave this to slowly sink off the page for now. Discuss this by all means and if anyone else in the crazy world of PAL gaming finds similar problems with running games, please post them here. If there are enough to warrant it, I'll create a problem/solution thread or something.

PAL 60 mimcs the NTSC framerate but in such a way as can be displayed on all but the oldest TVs. I guess having the same framerate allows the cars to all run at the same speeds although personally I didn't notice any actual increase or decrease in game speed.

Edit: Silly Shin, I meant PAL 60, not PAL 50.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
