Thanks  certain games are region-locked to specific servers. some games allow u to choose to play at any servers globally, regardless of ur psn id. just stick with ur current MY psn id. most ppl created other region psn id to access those psn stores stuff (eg free dynamic themes).

It's more "stable" in a way that game installs or games that runs from the HDD will have no stuttering.
