PS3

[darkshadow]

Since when have dvd regions have ANYTHING to do with game regions? game regions go by PAL, NTSC and NTSC-J.
Ps3 is REGION FREE for games, the only region encoding in there is the Blu-ray dvd region, which happened to be the same for the US and JP, so you can play imported games on any ps3 console, but with movies you will run into trouble.
you might also run into trouble if you are gaming on an SDTV (PAL SD is 576i where as NTSC is 480i) , since composite/s-video frequencies are affected by ntsc or pal, you should have ZERO problems with HD gaming though

I think PS3 is going to have another price drop.

I heard that Sony won the rights to the blueray thing or some crap like that. Soooo they'll be mass producing the PS3 which means a price drop is likely.

Are you maybe referring to that bluray won the hd-format war?

Oh.. Maybe. Hah I forgot what my friend had said, but it was something along the lines of that.
