Default Just a quick curious question...
Are PS3 games region compatible like 360?

Just wondered, no reason.

Wouldn't suprise me if the european one wasn't :/

Yes, PS3 is completely region-free

Not all 360 games are though.

PS3 is region free for PS3 games. PS2 games are still region-controlled, of course.

So that means that the PS3 games aren't region-free? Just because it says what region the disc is released/manufactured in doesn't mean that it will only work there.

Yes but when a game has a region on the back of it and such that is what it means

Sektor, I've had my PS3 since February, and still haven't even found any domestic games worth buying on it yet sadly enough. Once an import worth buying comes out, I'll be the guinni pig, order it, and test it out for you, ok?
