Wrong. They have not cracked the region encoding on 360's yet

Again wrong. You can use them for multiplayer. The risk you take is that if you are using a copy and not an original you have bought from a store selling them early is that they may detect it.

So did I, and so am I.

I may even moreso, since I already ordered from yesasia.com, and ordered again from play-asia.com when I saw they were shipping. Now I'm gonna have two fackin' copies. Whoops. At least one will be a day early, though.

So you didn't manage to say anything that you wanted to say?

PS3 isn't region free. For now no games have come out region free, however the publishers do have that option.
It's not region free either for PS2 titles.

Sineface I love you even more now. Can I be your dog?


Your internet love unsettles me. Dog position is filled I'm afraid, as is husboats, but you may worship me from afar. That is fine.

edit PS3 is region free.

It's up to developers if they want to region lock games. No region locked games have been released as of yet, but that ability is there.

Alright, I just have to check on another site first where another couple guys were asking about it. If they're a no-go I'll let you know. It should be here today or early tomorrow. I'll take off the shipping and cut another man won off what I paid for it.
