guys i've been looking around for this answer for a while now, your help would be greatly appreciated.
If i am using my US PSN ID, and i log in and play a game , for example Fat Princess. When selecting to play Online, will the game look for servers nearest to me or primarily first in the US since i'm using an US PSN ID?
Or if i am using my M'sian PSN ID and play Fat Princess, would the game search the nearest servers to me first ?
I'm asking because i'm using my US PSN as my main account and logged in quite alot of trophies there already, kinda don't want to switch. But if playing multiplayer games like the upcoming modern warfare 2 and killzone 2 online and the game will match me to US servers FIRST due to my US PSN then i will switch to a M'sian PSN. But seeing as i will lose my trophies iw ant to make sure first.
Thanks guys.

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Oct 26 2009, 06:52 PM) im also using US account as main psn id thing is some games like kz2 allows us to choose to connect to any region (asia, US, Europe, middle-east) in the warzone options. psn account is separate from game servers... Shahreza2000 thanks for your reply. And yes now i remember you're right. However some games like Fat Princess doesn't allow that choice and i'm just wondering if anyone knows? Does anyone know if the new upcoming Modern Warfare 2 will allow u to choose? i Can't remember if the first modern warfare or the World at war call of duty has the option to choose whcih region servers.

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Oct 27 2009, 01:04 AM) if some games doesn't have, it means it has centralized the servers ... its like you'll be able to play anyone on the globe.. the disadvantage for us is that our connection is so-so... lag is another big issue... the 1st MW... used to play a lot with HK, thai and SG players... yeah centralized servers (mainly US) really sux but that is the price us South-east gamers have to regularly pay. However, i'm just curious. An asian version of Fat Princess (only avaliable on South-east asia and China PSN) should have an asian centralized server right? If so, i wonder if the game will know i am in Asia (despite logging on with a US PSN) and connect to automatically with that server rather than the US server... would be good to know.
