Can someone confirm for me if Playstation3 is regionfree?
I was sure the Playstation 3 was not region free, and I would have to wait till next year to get a hold of Rock Band, disapointing since it is out in November in America.
But someone mentioned to me it is region free so I could actually import it and play it fine on my PS3.
ANyone confirm this or is he talking shit?

I think I read this somewhere, although I might be confusing it with the PSP which is region free.

( I know, no help at all.)

Unsurprisingly, it's region locked.

The hardware is region free, but individual games can be region locked if the publishers so desire.
