    I never understood the point of region locking in the first place...I mean..wouldn't you think it would increase sales? They don't spend the extra money getting certain games put out in certain regions but still have people importing...makes sense to me...

    It's just to bad there really isnt any good PS3 games worth importing....YET...

    I've been arguing this very point for years. If companys don't bring over certain games we want, then obviously we are going to import them to play them. And as you said Dream--it would increase their sales. I actually don't mind importing, but if I was an rpg fan I would hate it.

    it has to do with different companies having distribution rights.

    That part of it is fairly obvious, but the other part is because of occasional "questionable" material. But the sad thing is, many titles fail to come over here simply for lack of finding a willing distributor. And that boys and girls is why we must import so much
