Who's ordered from them before?

Fifa 08 £24.74 GBP

Cheap!

Says no region restrictions? So there should be no problems?

How does that makes sense?

Surely the PS3 is either region unlocked or it isn't?

yes the ps3 is fully region unlocked well for games its locked for blu-ray.

however, companies can still make games locked by region if they want to.

i.e one game might be totally region free yet another game might be region locked.

Yeah, but what I mean is. If the PS3 is region unlocked, then why would it matter if a game had a region on it? The PS3 should still play it because it's not locked to a region?

the ps3 is unlocked, however, there still remains the software in place to lock certain games IF the games publisher wishes this to be done, get that?

lol It's just my personal view that if it's called "unlocked" it means it can play all. There's oboviously instances where it won't be able to play games from another region (if the publisher has locked it) therefore it isn't region free.

Just imo of course

Sounds to me like it is lockable, but many game publishers don't bother with the region lock feature, hence it appears region free much of the time.
