Can anyone please tell me if Bluray Discs from Overseas eg. USA , UK etc
work on Australian Play Station 3 consoles? ( i have the 80GB model )
am thinking of buying bluray discs from Amazon.com as they seem very cheap
compared to ours , Am especialy interested in the STAR TREK series particuly
Original series at the moment , i think so far it seems as far as i know you
can only get the Origianl series on bluray atm, Havn't seen NEXT Gen ,
Voyager or Enterprise Yet on Bluray!

Any Advise would be Apreciated
Thanks

Earl

Bluray discs are region locked on a PS3. Only region B/2 bluray will work on
your PAL console.

A/1: The Americas, and their dependencies, East Asia (except Mainland China
and Mongolia), Southeast Asia.

B/2: Africa, Southwest Asia, Europe (except Belarus, Russia and Ukraine),
Oceania, and their dependencies.

C/3: Central Asia, East Asia (Mainland China and Mongolia only), South Asia,
central Eurasia (including Russia), and their dependencies.

Forgot to mention. If the Bluray title is region free then it can be
purchased from anywhere in the world. You just have to double check its
region free before purchasing it.

Thanks for your replies , though the link blueray.liesinc.net didnt work
, maybe its incorrect or incomplete .
I looked on the cover of the aussie version of TOS Startrek and couldnt see
any indication of a region code on it!
Maybe someone else knows any further information to that or a website that
can be looked up to confirm what bluray titles are region coded etc.

Thanking You all

Earl
