    on regionfree...

    don't know if this is the most appropriate section, but I was unable to find a better one.

    I would have a question, just for curiosity:
    since both X360 and PS3 are regionfree and are the developers/publishers to decide if release a locked game or not, I was wondering why on PS3 all games are regionfree, while on 360 aren't (expeacially: there are very few (5, afaik) regionfree games among the ones unreleased as PAL).
    for example, why the same publisher decide to make the very same game (i.e. Hokuto Musou) regionfree for one format and not for another...?
    I suppose there's something in the agreement with Sony and Microsoft that encourages or discurages the release of regionfree games.

    anyone can shed some light on the matter?

    I thought PS3 games are region free as default. I've never heard of it being publishers choice as it is on 360. I know certain games are region specific when it comes to online, such as if you buy an American game of game X you can only play with those who also bought the American version but it doesn't matter where your machine comes from.

      Yeah, I'm pretty sure region free is mandated with PS3 games.
