Unfortunately, the answer is no. Likewise, foreign films or any other content that's specified for a region different than the system you're using will not work. |
Bleh, that sucks.
Wonder if there's a way around it somehow..... sucks since I have a few imports(FFVII: DC, KH2, etc).

What's stopping you from still using a modded ps2?

I never bothered with buying import games, but since japanese and US PS3 games are the same region, I just might, since Monster Hunter III comes out next year.

...well isn't that confusing.
I thought all consoles had regional lockouts. Or most, anyway.

Turbografx didn't.
But no one remembers that.

Nothing, but in the event it doesn't work anymore I can't just use the PS3 I'd eventually have.

Of course, if that becomes an easy possible solution.
