This was the case for Bio 1, but really it was only ported because of it's success... in the past PS3 always got the worse version because of the porting nature the devs were doing. But now they make 2 separate versions right off the bat, plus the PS3 version has been rumored to be better for this game (less frame rate drops ect...). These past few years PS3 games IMO have looked much better even "some" multi platform titles. Also the installs aren't there because of the fact it is ported this is just false, they do this because it makes the loading times shorter and because of the PS3's divided RAM.

Buy it from America, if it doesn't play, sell just the base game and then buy the uk base game. Then mix your US songbird with English game, add some eggs and flour, cook for 30 mins and viola, uk songbird edition

If I don't make sense it because I have a headache and feel sorry for myself

Please keep these CE Discussion Sub Forums free of bickering, the morals of buying more than 1 CE is not grounds for a forum ban, however unpopular this sort of thing is.

There's more chance of the game being region free on 360 than not, so take the plunge. I've done it before with other games and it's always paid off.

The general rule of thumb is that if the game is an obscure title, it's more of a risk. Pretty much every big release these days is region free.

It is a good bet Infinite will be region free like most... there hare only a handful that aren't, right?

Its region free. Even if you do whats been suggested & buy a US version then put a UK game in the box,you will have the problem of the outer box being marked somewhere as NTSC. If you then decide to sell it the buyer may be nasty & make a claim against you for fraud. It does happen.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, depends on how anal you are. I did a similar thing with GTAIV, bought the local SE, traded the game back in and got the UK version as it was uncensored.

I can also confirm that BI is region free. Won't go into detail on how I know (and probably how Hippee knows also ) but the US version will definately play on PAL systems.

Cheers everyone thanks for the comments think I might just go for the US version not going to get it any other way so got to be worth a punt!
