WTB FF13+PS3 bundle NA

[bechyni]

I have seen several JP versions of this, and they said this would work for NA games. Anyone know where I can find a NA version of this? Been looking around and have been having trouble even find a PS3 anyore ;(

[Kaisha]

There is no PS3 NA bundle, Microsoft paid for the exclusive rights on that. Unless I'm misreading what you're asking for.

[izembo]

yea, no NA ps3 bundle

[bechyni]

Bahhhh, yeah that would explain the reason I can't find any. So is there any real difference between a JP based PS3 and NA besides the obvious.

I have the FF13 PS3 bundle and no major differences that I can see. Just if it breaks I hear it needs to go back to Japan

PS3 games are region-free, but for PSX games and movies you're screwed.

Yeah I figured I'd be screwed on movies just wasn't area how they had their games setup. Thanks :D

Hmm, I'll test when I get home unless someone knows

Also I believe blueray movies work

US Blurays will work on a JP PS3, DVD's won't though. They use different region locking.

Bluray:

* Region A includes most North, Central and South American and Southeast Asian countries plus Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Korea.
* Region B includes most European, African and southwest Asian countries plus Australia and New Zealand.
* Region C contains the remaining central and south Asian countries, as well as China and Russia.

They use letters for region encoding over there? It's all numbers here in North America.

never knew ps3 games where region free so JP ps3 games will work on my NA console and vis versa?

Yes, all PS3 games are region free, PS1 games you buy from the PS store are also region free. DLC for games is the only thing that is usually region locked (for example if you have a UK copy of Resident Evil 5, you will need to buy DLC from the UK PSN store)

Netflix works fine
