Hi everyone,
I'm thinking about purchasing a new PS3 through american (U.S.) market and use it in Europe.
I'd like to do so because of the good dollar/euro exchange.
The dubt is if everything works fine or not.
Does european games works on US console?
And Blu-ray and DVD? any region limitation?
Networking and online playing is supported and will be compatible with european network?
Does anybody know?
Thank you very much

shouldnt worry if you use new HDTV & leads.
watch out for import tax.
