Topic: may region ba ang blu-ray discs?

[mike c]

I ordered some blu-ray discs on amazon, and someone asked me if the LOCAL (asian) PS3's available can play these discs?

anybody in my position who's tried?

no problem [yata]  playing region coded bluray movies sa asian ps3, pero pag sddvd, region 3 lang pwede. 

Region code    Area
A/1    North America, Central America, South America, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
B/2    Europe, Greenland, French territories, Middle East, Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
C/3    India, Nepal, Mainland China, Russia, Central and South Asia.
