Looking into ordering a few DVD's that I want, and can't get on Blu-Ray, and was wondering if the Ps3 is multi-region on DVD play back? I know that Blu-Rays discs are region coded and games aren't.
Cheers

If you mean can it play DVD's and Blu-Ray movies that have a different region than the PS3, No. It can't. The only multi-region playback it does is PS3 games. WalterPeck
Boo! As I want to order South Park season 8 and 9 and they're not region 2. So that's out the window then! I know that the games aren't coded and that Blu-ray disc's are I just thought that regular DVD's from the USA etc might work. Oh well!
As far as i know it works like this:
PS3 Games: Region Free
PS2 Games: Region Locked
PS1 Games: Region Locked
Bluray Movies: Region Locked
DVD Movies: Region Free
I know this cause ive ordered and played several games from the US for PS3 and also some Region 1 DVDs (just watched Evangelion 1.0 which is region 1 and worked fine)
can the ps3 play the smaller disk the come with blue tooth, or smaller disk that comes with mp3 players an so on
Hmmm... It would be sweet if my North American PS3 plays Region 3 DVD, I used to have a region unlock for my original PS2 and I used to buy Godzilla films from Hong Kong because they were English subtitled without the horrid dubbing (for awhile, it was the only way to get copies of certain G films). I shall have to try them when I get home. I would be VERY happy if they can be played. I never even thought to try!
