If I remember correctly, ther difference between PAL and NTCS is the number of lines of pixels on the TV screen. i think for NTSC is 50 something and PAL is 60 something. It also has to do with the refresh rate as well i think. google it if you want more info. :)

I think PAL is better at handling colo(u)r and NTSC is better at handling movement on screen or something like that. Usually PAL versions of games have minor minor gameplay differences in them as well that just makes you wonder if the developers put them in because they hate you. Plus NTSC versions support High Definition technology and stuff as that's not really a big thing yet in Europe :(

NTSC is for Japan and USA and Canada etc. (I think...)

And PAL is for Europe and Austrailia.

Although I'm not sure about other countries
