CompSci Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 at last sony has done something right, well hopefully they will i am all for no region locking, now we can enjoy games early, like those yanks, hopefully nintendo/M$ will follow suit, so we can have a global community http://eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=61614
DiemetriX Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 Hmmm.. interesting. I would say it's a double sided sword... But yeah this is cool
Bren Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 hopefully this will happen, games shud be world wide, not just confined to some countrys
Ashley Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 Well PSP games aren't region locked, but Sony went all angry at import companies. Will the same happen? Only Mystic Meg can tell.
Domstercool Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 They were more angry for Hardware rather than software. If this is true, since there seems to be alot of random Sony bollocks appearing up lately, then it's all good for RPG fans like me.
demonmike04 Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 This will entice people to import the hardware aswell as software though, so im starting to think its just going to trick import sites so they can sue them. But oh well, nice to know there not doing region locks though, that way anime/manga/rpg fans wont miss out on japan only releases due to the licenses.
mike-zim Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 sony had to announce something. they are struggling to keep up with the other 2. X360 is due for release soon. nintendo keep slipping in a few tidbits. sony showed there whole hand too early now they are trying to do something about it.
Kurtle Squad Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 PLEASE DO THIS ASWELL NINTENDO!!! Region locking is the most pointless thing ever. People say that it's so they make more money, but how?
The3rdChildren Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I doubt I can import these new generation of machines due to the online features being shitted up, so anything region anything I can play anywhere is a good stop. Didn't they plan to abolish DVD region coding eventually as well?
Hellfire Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 This seems like a great move, but is it true? I mean,Sony did sue Lik Sang or wtvr because they exported PSPs.
mike-zim Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Is it possible with the different formats that or televisions play?
Kurtle Squad Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Yes...I believe it would be since the Freeloader can do it.
dukkadukka Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 dom and his rpgs hehe, like ant and dec, you can't imagine one without the other
scubahood Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Theres another rumour floating about that PS3 games will only be able to be played on one console or something silly like that
demonmike04 Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Theres another rumour floating about that PS3 games will only be able to be played on one console or something silly like that big post down the page called: Horrible blu-ray patent, so you may want to read that, but its still rumoured.
