Do European PS3 games work on Aussie consoles?

 

This might seem like a stupid question but I need to be sure, and I don't know where to check.

Someone please help me?

Yes, PS3 is region free concerning games. Blu-Ray movies on the other hand are region locked.

Yah, games region free. I have the Asia/US version (pretty sure its asia/NTSC) and mine will play the BR discs I bought here in Aus so I think they aren't region locked either. The problem is that I can't play my PAL DVDs on my PS3 or any of the AUS PS2 games. Neither of these are a big problem for me coz I have a DVD player anyways, which plays DivX too and I also don't have any PS2 games, so it's no biggy.

One thing about the imported games is you will be connecting to different servers for online play than if you had the localized version of the game. If you are wanting to play friends this is something to consider.
