hi guys,
got a few questions about the not so popular (yet) ps3 :
if i buy a ps3 over here, can I configure it to english ?
will the games be in german if the machine configuration is in english ? basically, will i have germans shouting at me during gameplay ?!!!
if i buy games back in ireland/uk can I use them on the german purchased unit ?
i have no idea ! had a pc for ages, but think about time got back into consoles, ps3 looks great and has good specs !
cheers,
action

Language settings on a PlayStation III
Buying in Germany, playing the games in English
When you first turn the system on it will ask you to set system language, there are lots of languages to choose from, English of course being one of them.
The games bought here will of course have the instructions/covers in German but the games will play in whatever language the system is set to.
UK and EIRE games will work on a unit bought here.

Most games will play in English for you, some titles may however only play in krout.
ok, thanks guys. happy gaming !
PS3 will be support DIVX soon. Its been included in the developer kit since Nov 2nd, and should be in some of the forthcoming releases
Be careful buying stuff from the playstation store. Until now I've only downloaded and bought games in german. Maybe I've got my settings wrong I'm not sure.
At the moment, I'm waiting for Time Crisis 4 (with Gun) which will get released in March 2008, and LittleBigPlanet (no confirmed date yet). Sony are also working on Home (closed betas running now), which is their attempt at a second life world.
Great box, with lots of full potential. Mine is sat at home, gaming (when I make the time), streaming downloaded media (MPEG2/4 converts) etc
Very very happy with it, good money spent well

To get UK / US games on the Playstation store, create a new user with a "fake" address registered in those countries
It's how everyone accesses the US demos
I'm not sure purchasing would work, since CC generally get's it's address checked. My CC is registered to a property in the UK as well as my place here, so I don't have issues...
