QUOTE(Frogger8888215 @ Feb 19 2012, 01:15 AM) Hi All, I am new to PS3 & planning to buy PS3 320GB White this week, understand that Singapore set is more cheaper RM 100 compare to Malaysia set. Should i get Singapore set or Malaysia set ? is that any different when you register Playstation Network ? Warranty ? Thanks guy ! QUOTE(Frogger8888215 @ Feb 19 2012, 07:27 PM) Thanks for the feedback guy, already get white 320GB Malaysian set this afternoon.

Regarding DLC for ps3 games,
If I buy a R1 game, I have to create another US PSN account for its DLC?
Can R3 game get R1 DLC?

So, does that mean we can create R1, R2, R3 and R4 account and download accordingly? Or is it that we are only able to create R3 account since we are from Asia?

You can create accounts for any and all regions.. just make sure that the dlc region matches the game's region and you're good to go.

Black label means the original covers, without the "Platinum", "The Best" or "Greatest Hits" sign on the cover...

Ace is right! Just to add on : Platinum signifies games from Europe (and if not mistaken Australia) The Best signifies games from Asia Greatest Hits signifies games from US

Guys,
I've bought one PSP from lowyat about 1 yr ago. It can't read 2 memory card which i bought with the psp. I went to Sony center in the curve, when they plug in they say it's a Singapore set so no support. Is this true ? Any one facing the same problem ? Any good recommendation on where I can get this problem fixed ?
TQ
