This is only true for SD output, you can play PAL games on NTSC PS3 in HD just fine.

Game compatibility
PS3 games (on Blu-ray discs) are not region locked, but they are released and labelled with numerical regions codes (which seems to match DVD region codes). Any PS3 game from any region will play in any PS3. However, there is the special situation when you try to play back the game in Standard Definition. If the PS3 game only has Standard Definition and Enhanced Definition for either PAL (576i and 576p) or NTSC (480i and 480p), your PS3 must have the same Standard Definition and Enhanced Definition format support, or you won't be able to play it. This is not a problem if you play the game in High Definition (720p, 1080i, 1080p), but there exists the possibility to region lock (based on Blu-ray game region) games if the publisher decides to do so. All PS3 games have a serial number containing a four character prefix, followed by a five digit suffix. The following are the common prefix for PS3 games:

notice even without the region coding, on the boxes of every game there is written NTSC, and PAL for euro releases.

I ordered a charge kit, and have wired ethernet in the game area, even our Wii uses wired ethernet. The years membership was about $39 and some change. I do not like paying an annual membership fee, however that seems to be how Microsoft has set it up.

You seem to get more for the money from the PS3 with respect to controllers and no online fees. At the same time, despite having a ridiculous failure rate, alleged vacuum cleaner noises when playing games, and other issues, there are many fans of the Xbox 360. In about a month, I hope to understand more about it.

I'm so concerned about Xbox 360 hardware issues, that instead of buying two consoles as was done with the Wii and PS3, my acquisition this year will be of just one. The Xbox 360 has been out for some time, and I'm wondering why it still seems to have significant issues.

Edit: Corrected approximate annual gold membership price

Or so you think. Could it be that developers don't want to admit any problems with PS3 development? When you're making a game for the PS3, you don't want to come out and say "the ps3 is hard to develop for", because that would put off some PS3 owners (for fear of a mediocre quality game, even though that isn't usually the case).

Then you have companies which just refuse to develop for PS3. Take valve, for instance.
»ps2.boomtown.net/en_uk/articles/···id=15020

Then you have all the games which perform slightly worse on the PS3 than the 360 when it's the secondary platform. (see: EA's Skate, and others)

Really, it's not just one or two bonehead developers like you make it sound. Hell, Rockstar developed for the PS1 and PS2 exclusively for some time and produced many quality games. I find it hard to believe that they are at fault for having troubles on the PS3 and not the 360.

My situation may well be anecdotal, and is specifically regarding the THQ.

If you read the thread, another example of a game delayed for the PS3 was cited.

The history of THQ at least with respect to the Destroy All Humans series has been mostly on the PS2, with one implementation recently on the Wii.

It just seemed a bit strange that a new release for a popular PS2 series is dead on the PS3, but alive on the Xbox 360. It'd be tough to say THQ didn't like Sony with their history of Playstation games.

I am sure the fact of THQ's financial woes and lack of success with their "next-gen" titles have nothing to do with the delays they're seeing.

Also, maybe hire some better devs that know how to 1) come up with a decent game and 2) know how to work within the PS3 code/architecture...seems a lot of other publishers have been able to meet their deadlines and get some amazing titles out there. Its a poor carpenter that blames his tools.

I feel Microsoft is doing an excellent job marketing (hype) the new NXE the same way Sony did with Blue-Ray. Not to mention it lives up to at least 90% of the hype if not more.

I think MS has a slight advantage over Sony since once you have Blue-Ray it will always be the same not really much to change for marketing (even though your movies will alwyas look beautiful). I know their #1 priority is getting that Home service up (if its not already).

Microsoft on the other hand has XBL which can be upgraded changed flipped renamed to always make it look new and feel new even though its an old service... This makes marketing almost as limitless as you can upgrade or add new features...

I will be honest I have had 2 XBOXs die on me but XBL is like crack (I have to take a hit at least a few times a week to make me feel good lol)... If this one dies I will get another one, may sound dumb or stupid, but that's how good it is....

Thanks for your input, for verification of the problem, read the comments on your link.

It'll still work out, I'll just get the Xbox 360 version and pray my new Xbox DVD reader doesn't sound like a vacuum cleaner once the game starts.

It's been so long, and the Xbox seems to have so much going for it. In late 2008, I'm still concerned about my new Xbox 360 (on order) having hardware issues ... though if I'm lucky and get a newer unit, my biggest concern will be DVD reader noise.

UPDATE: I found another THQ game which was supposed to be released for the Xbox 360 AND the PS3, back in March. It now only exists for the Xbox 360 (and Windows). It doesn't look good for the PS3 with THQ :( - »ps3.psu.com/Destroy-All-Humans,-···6-p0.php

You can also check Amazon.com, Path of the Furon is no longer available for pre-order for the PS3, but can be ordered for the Xbox 360. If you also search for Frontlines Fuel of War at Amazon, you'll notice the PS3 version has a similar notice to the PS3 Furon title, however Frontlines Fuel of War has been shipping since early this year for the Xbox 360.

But yeah, the PS3 isn't usually the primary development platform for multi-platform games. Unfortunately, developers seem to hit a lot of snags with the PS3, sometimes it leads to the game being delayed on both platforms. (see: GTA4)

The release date had slipped at least once. Unfortunately it doesn't appear to be released for the PS3 anymore. This is sort of a young teen game, and I was a bit sad that something my son would enjoy wasn't going to be released.

Today, while searching "path of the furon", I noted it also is to be released for the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 release is still on track.

This is the year, Santa brings an Xbox 360 (Elite) to our home. So Path of the Furon is still on, just it won't be the PS3 version.

Stuff like this really hurts Sony in my opinion. I realize this is just a small kids game, it isn't a blockbuster, but still my son will be much happier with the game than without it. He will not care quite as much if it is a PS3 or an Xbox 360 game, provided it works.

As an aside, I didn't see lack of a PS3 version noted very much on most searches.

I'm praying our Xbox 360 doesn't sound like a turbine once we start playing games, but with the new RIP to hard drive feature, it may help cut down on ambient noise from the disc drive.
