Sony confirms online play, HDD, and region-free PS3

March 23, 2006

1UP has an interview with Sony’s Phil Harrison that reveals more details of the PS3. Among other things discussed are the Playstation Network online service, the PS3 HDD, and the fact that PS3 will be region free (as far as games are concerned). I’m really excited about the last fact, because I am a bitter opponent of region coding. I can’t stand missing out on the one or two good titles that never get released here, but it’s often not worth the trouble to get a mod just for a handful of games.
