Quote:They're region-free, the EA Support guy is blowing smoke. The PS3 spec (for games) doesn't support region codingYeah. Pretty much every single person I know who had an interest in Rock Band has been turned off by the EU price, and a few are now importing US PS3 versions.
Kotaku says it'll work. Only games that try to output 480i on a 576i set should fail. If you have HDTV, this isn't a concern for PS3 games as it'll be outputting in at least 720p.
EA know that this will cost them legit European sales, so their best counter is to tell anyone that asks them if the US version works or not on EU PS3s is that it won't. That way, a potential customer is put off imported on the say so of the official word, and will probably pay hand over fist for the EU version.
When in mortal danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
Wave your arms and shout.
