No. PlayStation 2s are region-coded, so games released in one area (North America) cannot be played on another region's (Europe) consoles without the use of a modchip.

"Yes, the playstation is 'region free' on games. This means American games (region 1) can be played on a UK console (region 2). The playstation is only 'region locked' on movies." This is wrong, PS1 and 2 are not region free on games, for a UK system you must have a PAL formatted disc for it to play, American and canadiam disc and consoles are formatted differently therefor you will not be able to play them. The PS3 however, sony decided to make region free games but it is still region locked on DVD's.
