How to Play PS2 NTSC Games on a PC

Some computer owners are always looking for ways to make their computers more versatile. One of the ways computer owners--especially if they are gamers--can upgrade their machines is by making them able to play certain console video games--in this case, the PlayStation 2. Ordinarily, it would be impossible for a computer to play PS2 games because of the hardware difference between the two systems. However, through the use of a program called an emulator, it is now possible to play a PS2 game on your PC.
