i ain't ever come across a game that had problems with being a different video mode...(unless you count stepmania)

anyways...have you tried getting a video mode switcher? lets you switch between ntsc and pal outputs...

should solve your problems

So far as I have seen, all of the PAL games are multi region based...I have a true NTSC HDTV, even has a 2:3 pulldown, true 29.97fps, and all my PAL games paly fine.

That's not true.

Many of the new programs have strict region checking in them, e.g. Worms 3D Pal, True Crime PAL, etc. which is defeating the mod chip's ability to make them work on NTSC systems.

True crime pal works fine.  People are having problems because of a release group (piracy) using xISO.

As far as I know only Rolling and Worms 3D are having the problem running on NTSC.

You can play PAL games on NTSC xbox.. just use config magic to change
NTSC, Region 1
to
NTSC, Ragion 4

works for all my PAL games except worms.. which has its own problems (wont run unless you change the eeprom to PAL - and you'll need a tv tuner card or something that supports PAL inputs)
