Okay, so I found this PS3 version of Just Cause 2... But! I found a LIMITED EDITION version of the game that comes with all DLC for 40 dollars for PS3 & 360 & 25 dollars for PC. But its coming from the UK. Do you think it will be Region free for my PS3? I need help. I only have 17 more days before I can get this bad boy.

 

Side note: I live in the US.

NO! Do not get it!

US uses NTSC format, while UK uses PAL format.

'Twill be a waste of money if you do.

 

I have heard that there are games that are region free but I'm not sure if this one would be. I've been reading up on other games that are. So I question if it will be or not. I heard only a hand full games that are region locked.

Most games are region locked, its there to prevent import/export as well as hinder bootleg operations. There are usually other factors, like localization, but it's mostly there to control distribution and licensing. The games usually say on their case if they're NTSC or PAL or NTSC/PAL.

Thank you. I'll have to look into that. I hope it isn't region locked.

Still the best way is to wait until version for US is released. I think it won't take long. Such a bad thing is going on only in my country. When you buy a game in Russia it means that all the world already played it long ago :-/

 

Concerning Just Cause 2 - I've seen only demo. Nice. Waiting for full version.
