PAL is a TV region for most Europe, Asia, Australia, And Africa.



NTSC is a TV region for USA and Japan.



If your country uses NTSC, and your console is PAL, you won't be able to play NTSC DVD's or Blu-Ray and vice versa.

you will be getting an ntsc tv

ntsc is the tv standard in the united states



the difference between ntsc and pal is



ntsc is 60 hertz ie 60 scan lines and better and faster video

but the video quality and color quality are worse



pal is the europen equivalent

its 50 hertz 50 scan lines its 17 % slower but when optimised you wont notice a thing

pal colors tend to be better and the image is more vibrant and stable

NTSC is what you wanna go for then, just check your TV's specs to be sure. The biggests manufacturers make sure their TV's of PAL, NTSC or other type are shipped to the corresponding countries but it's best to check your TV.

in the middle east we follow PAL system.

it is not just the TV support, also you should consider if the games you purchase will work on the US console
