    Default Does the PS3 Play...

    PSOne/PS2 imports? If not, are there any devices out there that allow such a thing?
    Oh no! The truck have started to move!!

    I believe that domestic PS3s are region free for PS3 games only, not PS2 or PS1 games.
    Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.

    Correct.

    And no such devices that enable it yet, I'm guessing.

    Apparently PS2 Swap Magic discs work ... but you'll have to perform this ... erm *cough* ... SIMPLE operation to actually SWAP your discs ... and even then the author has no idea how to proceed

    It'd be awesome if PS3 was completely region free, I doubt Sony would make it happen. I'm planning on picking up an import 20 or 60 gig so I can play PS/PS2 imports in high res.

    That is absolutely horrible...maybe he should boil it in hot water to see if it'll play any region free games...
