PS3 Compatibilities
« on: Aug 13, 2008 at 09:25 AM »
I'm going to buy a PS3 but I'm confused if I should get it locally (Asian) or from the US.

I was told that the PS3 can play all games from ALL regions. Is this confirmed?

The bigger confusion is if the Asian PS3 can play US Region Blu Ray discs.

Need help ASAP.

hi bro! BD movies n games are mostly regionA (US and Asia) when it comes to PS3 n are both compatible to the PS3. the only incompatibility issue is the DVD region. R1 for US, R3 for asia
