Hmm. X360 is region locked. That PS3 games have no region codes is one of the best things on PS3. Hopefully they will keep this philosophy next gen.


I dont think thats relevant at best thats 50k additional sales for PS3. Nothing will change. FF13 should be a Ps3 exclusive anyway.

the PS3 is not completely region free.

The games are, but sometimes the DLC just aint.

Dragon Age: Oragins is one of these I discovered to my annoyance.

 

 

WHAT ?

 

Where have you downloaded the DLC ? And where do you live ? How should one know that the DLC is not region free ? Is all DLC not region free ?What is this for a stupid decision ? First they make the games region free but not the DLC ? I download my stuff mostly in UK but not everything is released in Europe. 

 

complicated, but here's my story.

Not sure if this is the PSN's doing or EA's BUT:

went on holiday to Singapore

Got games including DA:o.

game ran fine, but wouldn't let me get the DLC codes I'd claimed until I signed in with a SG PSN account.

oh it would let be buy the DLC and install it, but the game won't register it's existance.

Check the bioware/DA:o PS3 support forums for confirmation of this problem if you want

I normally use the South African PSN (semi-linked to EU one) and I live/work in Tanzania.

DLC from any region other than Singapore just won't work with DA:o

like I said, I don't know if this is a PSN thing or specifically for EA/DA:o

Now I've had to go through dodgy means to be able to buy from SG PSN.
