-|Comments=Europe v02.00(14/06/2004), Freezes at the copyrights screen before getting to menus. Messing with the settings does not help. Console shows this when and after the copyrights screen appears. The main problem is that this game actually WORKED under PCSX2 0.9.6. So I guess something\someone broke it. Bugs: Crash at the copyrights screen.
