It's not true. Region locking on games was already there as an option for developers since day one. So far only 2 games got region locked. Like that also want to panic?

Also, don't believe in any source that comes from hacking websites. The only people that have any reason to panic about region locking are the morons who use jailbreak.

thing is, this type of bs always happens,and people always get worked up for no reason.

and as always, they'll skip the facts and straight away play the blaming game.

speaking of facts, here are a couple:

1)we dont know what the(supposed) region lock inserted together with the firmware does.
is it for games?or for apps?or both?or neither?! hell,is there even such a thing to begin with?cos this is the first time i've heard of it.
whatever it is,the screenshot they showed certainly is from an APP.
so if they region lock an app like netflix,what's the harm?
it's not like we're ever gonna get it,as it's US ONLY.

2)websites need hits-sensationalising something is bound to generate hits. this is one good example. skewer the facts and take advantage of gullible people.-instant traffic

i think the JB is a fail still

yea you got a good point, well we just need to wait and see how

is this even official news, why so many people getting steam all about@@

becoz today friday..all in holiday mood. no work even they have work..lol

Really?

probably wat this guys said is true. it depend on the game developer

If this happens, I hope that this only applies to new games only. Otherwise, my collection of R1 and R2 games become paperweight overnight
