Dear Sifu
Games is region free. DLC is region locked.
Meaning that all those DLC i purchased can be used on the same region BD only?

And is it compatible to MY(malaysia)-ID, if the DLC is US want?
*
PS3 can play games from any region. It doesn't matter whetehr ur ID is Malaysian or US or Pakistan, etc

Some DLCs can only work with games of certain regions. So long as the game data / installed data is from the same region the DLC will definitely work.

Example games by Activision (eg Guitar Hero series, DJ hero series, Call of Duty, etc) DLC's are region lock means any DLC must be from the same region. probably because songs for the Guitar Hero series available in US region may not available in Asia due to licensing issues.

So just double check whether the DLC can be used for different regions if you intend to download Asia DLC (R3) for the US game (R1) you r playing with. You can check the respective threads in the forums.

ID can be anywhere in the world. It has no impact other than the PSN region you can access to.

what did they give? beside the ps3/controller/adapter ?
no free 1 game? or discount ..

why ps3 doesnt make bundle with free games like xbox360..it will make the package looks interesting..

btw whats the difference between  2506 and 3000  model?newer means better?
*
It depends on the retailer unless its on pack bundle already lie COD Black Ops / Top Spin 4 . etc where the PS3 comes with a game and maybe accessory inside.

Unfortunately the retail market here doesn't sell bundles but if you go Singapore, you can see some retailersn packaged their PS3 with choice of games / accessory, etc. Even when I was in UK they also sell PS3 bundles which differ by retailer.

why 2014?

Hahaha, so maybe marketing can do some gimmick with the number 4 smile.gif

ANyway, if PS4 come in 2014, they'll announce it in next year E3 / TGS. For me that's the earliest they;ll do it but since this announcement maybe will be only out in 2015.

Bear in mind no game has filled put the BD ray capacity yet and I remember Naughty DOg said they only tapped into about 20-30% potential for UC2 (maybe near 50% for UC3) so still got room to go.

Did anyone see the inFamous 2 bundle with 320gb ps3 in Malaysia? I mean, the official Malaysian one i mean. We had the GT5 one before, so shouldn't this be available also?
*
Is there an official Infamous 2 bundle for Malaysia? I don't see it in any of the official stores.
