PS3 however region lock their DLC in that you have to use the DLC from the country the game originated from. For example. I have the US version of Dark Souls and I play it on my Aus PS3. I had to create a US account in order to purchase the Artorias of the Abyss DLC otherwise the game simply wouldn't know it was there.

Well, that sounds great - but with DLC redeeming codes (such as I'd be getting in the Black Chest edition) I'm assuming they ONLY unlock the DLC for that particular region, right? I've attempted to use other codes before but got "invalid code" because it needed to be redeemed by a UK account for instance. Also, some regions cannot view particular DLC via their marketplaces so I imagine those are limitations too.
Maybe my best bet in that case would be to just sell the game with all the DLC codes and uPlay pass on the UK eBay and use the funds to pay for my own NTSC copy and keep all the extras? I guess I may be paying for the DLC twice (if I don't make anything back on Ebay).
Thanks for the info!
