If it's region locked, then it'll only play games from that section of the world. You can bypass the region lock by jailbreaking if I'm correct

im really sure that sony products arent region lock. the only company in games that is region is the nintendo. sony doesnt lock their systems so im sure you'll be safe to play whatever region games you want.

but then again.. if he himself says its region locked then im assuming that he has tried other regions games.. which really is odd because i dont recall my ps3 not being able to play japanese games lol.

Don't buy it it would be a waist of time and money to jailbreak it I suggest just buying a 100 dollar slim from gamestop

dude thats the original one. check which gb model it is because that one alone is hard to find reason is because if it was the 80gb (i cant remember but i had one) it's backward compatible they took that out in the slim models

edit: i mean if its the 60gb im sorry lol
