    Even if we don't get it, hopefully it will be offered as downloadable content.

    I will likely order this from overseas as I have been doing with all games in the past couple of years - It's less than a third of the local retail price and exactly the same game.

    be warned that some overseas games wont allow cross region multi, so if you get a US copy, you many not be able to play AUS multi matches.

    PC games are not a problem and I have never encountered it.

    I thought the ps3 was supposed to be region free?

    And anyway, yea, we play on PC. As I said before, it'll be on the internets in no time.

    it is region free, but depending on server set ups some games will only access the server of the games region, Demon's Souls does this for example.

    DLC also depends on region. Generally if you buy a foreign release game but Australian DLC they won't work together.

    I bought Dragon Age Origins from overseas and the DLC downloads and installs fine. I just installed the 'Return to Ostagar' DLC as I have done with Warden's Keep before and its all good.

    However I have heard that Steam does region code their games but I didn't encounter that with Orange Box.
