Formatwarscentral reports that they have read on the AVForums that someone has discovered a workaround for region coding on Blu-ray titles.
He has found that it works on New Line titles and essentially uses controller commands to jump past the warning to the main menu.
It will be interesting to see if this workaround can be applied to titles from other studios, and Region B titles to play on Region A PS3.
Of course, now that he has talked about it, it will probably be disabled on future firmware releases.
Capcom commemorated the two-year anniversary of Dragon's Dogma 2 with new artwork that fans say contains hints of a major update.
I don't see Capcom revisiting the game outside of a Switch 2 port. It under-performed and generally when that happens any potential future content goes bye-bye.
Surprise! A new update for the near 20-year-old PlayStation 3 is rolling out today, March 18.
Jesus Christ it was 20 years ago when i bought my first PS3 50Gb fat version for $538 with my school's financial aid refund.
“ Congrats, you're old now”
That’s what she told you last night
Yes I know 1980’s called they want that joke back😂
I will never forget March 23 2007 the day this beast released in Europe I got it with Virtua Tennis 3 and GT concept.
My favorite PS console ever.
Yea so you can't jailbreak it ahaha. Best thing you can do with these old consoles is jailbreak em, finally have the freedom to do with em whatever is possible.

They were able to get this to work with 4 movies, this is mostly unconfirmed and shouldn't be considered "news". Unfortunately you cant read the whole thread by just clicking on the story, you have to click on the thread link in the upper right hand corner... which helps to do before calling something "news".
I really hope they will not fix it it, cause region-free is better for the consumers, but yeah, they'll probably 'fix' it.
This is why I was pro HDDVD: No region-coding and no DRM crap.
I really think it's ridiculous that in this current day and age, we still have region-coding...
If I wanna import a USA Blu-ray instead of buying the European blu-ray, because the european Blu-ray is of a lesser quality AND more expensive, than it's the European distributor's own fault for releasing a mediocre, overpriced product!
If you throw open these markets, the consumer wins, cause we'll have more competitive pricing and better quality, as well as a lot more options to choose from.
If I am in Hong Kong and wanna buy the latest asian movies, I wanna be able to play them back home on my PS3. That's my right as a consumer.
You can kiss that loop-hole goodbye. I'm sure sony will patch it, just like they did with the rsx when it was hacked. People need to be little hush hush on things.
Stupid news.
I thought blu-ray movies are region free like the games
There really isn't any foreign blu-ray movies out there (everything ends up here anyways: Paprika, Curse of The Golden Flower, The Host)
