Hello
**I have bought PS3 when I was in USA, and now I am trying to run it somewhere in the middle east...I have some problem in power ( USA ps3 version accept 110v 60hz and here we have 240v 50hz) so I e-mail Sony for this, but when they replay I found something strange in their e-mail....
USA ps3 version will not be able to run games except the USA version games (Ex My ps3 will not be able to run Resistance: Fall of Man [UK]) :shock::shock:
This is the replay with e-mail:-

Thank you for writing us.
Due to different television and voltage standards, and a variety of licensing issues, Sony Computer
Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) has implemented a territorial-based distribution system for its hardware,
peripherals, and software. This limits the use of any particular software to play on the console
designated for that distribution territory (e.g. North American games will not play in the systems
designed for other regions, such as, Japan, Europe, etc.). You may also experience problems if you
attempt to use memory cards, controllers, etc. from a different region (outside of North America) on
your North American console. In addition, due to a difference in international television
standards, PlayStation(R) consoles may not be compatible with televisions made for use outside of
the designed region.
We do not have any information on adapters or converters made to override territorial restrictions.
The various PlayStation(R) consoles and format software titles are only designed to run in their
respective regions and countries. We apologize for any inconvenience.
If you have further questions regarding this message, please refer to your email case
