Is it happening to you if so what game?

White Knight Chronicles II :(

I don't mind not being able to download DLC, but I can't play online due to my region being set to Asia.

WKC II only allows US and EU players. Sure I can use my alternate US account but that means no trophies and friend list usage for me.

I dont have WK2 but go online to see if they took down the Asian servier, which is highly unlikely. Check if your game was really new and check if your redeem codes got expired and if thats the case you can call Sony.

I'm sure you must be referring to WKC1.

Because WKC1 wasn't region locked you see. I could play WKC1 online on their geonet but not with WKC2 because my PSN account region is Asia(R3) instead of north america(R1).
