Hi! Is there still ANY way of making the PS3 region free for DVD's? PS3 is a kick ass DVD player with excellent upscaling ability and I would hate to spend another 250€ to buy a high end dvd player.

Thanks a lot.

just rip the dvd to your computer and copy it to your ps3 HDD, otherwise no it is not possible to play them

I've heard if you use the Hong Kong update it makes it region free.
