If your PS2 is a modded one, then you won't have any issues with the DVD's being compatible due to region coding (PAL/NTSC/NTSC-US/NTSC-J).

So I would first need to know if the console is modded or not?

Oh in that case, it will depend on the model of the TV you're plugging it into. If it supports Multi-System then you won't have any issues. But if you're PS2 is a PAL model & the TV accepts only NTSC TV signals then the result might be a black & white picture on your TV.
