I live in Canada (NTSC) but visit Asia (PAL) often and for extended periods. I know that the PS4 won't have region locking which makes my life a lot easier. I will have a power transformer thing so that I can use the PS4 without frying it in any country. However, I am sure there are differences between the consoles versions. Should I get the PS4, when it releases, in Canada or in Asia? Will buying it in one country limit online gameplay to just players in that country or is PSN global?

Pretty sure PSN is global in its current state and will be for the next gen.
I think your question will depend on the game you're playing, like Killzone 2 in which you had to set the Region to play in servers in that specific region.
I have people from various places around the world on my friend list and I play with them no prob.
Up until now I think Metal Gear Solid 4 and Uncharted 2 have defined the PS3 for me. Also Demon's Souls is worth a mention at first I hated it , I felt the Gameplay was kinda boring,but after a few hours the game shows an enormous amount of depth and challenge if you manage to look past the punishing difficulty. :P There are some others like Red Dead Redemption, Burnout Paradise and Borderlands (Both Titles) but those are Multi-platform and don't really count.
Phats 60gb PS3s are definitely more sought after. Â It is, after all, the premo PS3 because of its looks and features. Â That it takes more electricity and other stuff like that doesn't matter to most, I'd wager.
Fact is they're rare, and they go for higher dollars than all other models.

Indeed,the first PS3 ( a 60GB launch day ) I used to play on, which was my uncle's, broke down and he gave it to me all busted and dusty and I seriously don't wanna give it up, I'm just looking around to see if anyone repairs it locally. :P
