or
CECHP01

thanks for quick response! US version ba yan sir? may HK kasi yung isa eh kaya baka HK/Asian hehehe

yes...

CECHK01 -- 80GB version, RSX=90nm (lumang model na to.)

CECHL01 -- 80GB version, RSX=65nm (eto yung bago.)

CECHP01 -- 160GB version, RSX=65nm (bago din.)

For me, the only difference is the PS2 games and the button configuration. The X and O are inverted! Like in the US version, to start, press X but in the JAP, it's O. Pisses me off cuz i can't use the cheat on rockband 1!

mga sirs/maams, questions lang... i have a 80gb HK CECHL12 PS3 and i'm currently using my year 2000+ JVC interiart CRT TV model AV-29L31-ph (which i think is actually a multisystem tv kase it's not that old naman). i have games mostly R3 and some R1 and some demos from both the US PSN and HK PSN. some play well while others like my batman AA R3 dont seem to work well with my display (black & white flickering while playing) even though its R3. i have also PS home, and some bunch of vids/demos which seem to take the same effect with my ps3 and tv. so obviously here's my questions: does this mean that even if i have Region 3 games/demos and an Asian unit some still dont get to be compatible? or is it with the cable i'm using kaya? i only have the composite one. can a component cable remedy this?

Gud Pm po. im buying a ps3 soon maybe this october what should i choose a U.S. version or Asian? what is the difference between the 2?sorry newbie lang po ako sa ps3.thanks po ng marami

Hi! I recently bought a PS3 Slim and was also wondering then if I should go with the US or the Asian version. I finally went for the US one.

Differences: not much. The only things I can be sure of now are:
1. The "confirm" and "cancel" buttons. If your PS3 is the US version, "confirm" would be "X", and "cancel", O. For the Asian ones, the buttons are interchanged.
2. BD and DVD movies playback capability. PS3s are region-locked when it comes to playing video discs. So if your PS3 is Asian, which makes it region 3 (R3), then your console can play only R3 discs. US PS3s are R1.

Things in common:
1. Playing games. Games are region-free, so you can play both R1 and R3 games on your PS3, regardless of your console's region/version.
2. Voltage ratings. Normally, US appliances/gadgets operate on 110V, while Asian ones do on 220V. However, it is CONFIRMED that the US PS3 (Slim version, at least. I don't know about the fat one) works on 220V.

Congrats on your new purchase!

Either US or Asian unit ang bilin mo, wala ka namang talo diyan. Any PS3 game pwede namang malaro. Hindi nga lang ma play yung mga DVDs na binebenta sa local stores (Astrovision, Odyssey, etc). I-rip na lang. hehehe

Pati Asian na 40GB autovolt din.

Bro some games even though R3 minsan ay PAL-encoded, meron issue dyan dati Like sa games na DMC 4 at GTA 4, yung R3 reLease nito "diumano" ay hindi guamagana sa hindi muLti-system na TVs. I don't think meron probLema yung cabLe mo, should be your TV, multi-system po ba?

just a noob question, planning to get my friends PS3 from Dubai. thanks in advance!

Not sure. But if my memory serves me right, Dubai is part R2 region. So probably PAL?

Check the box to be sure. I know it is stated at the back of the box.

PAL sya pafs.

papano lalaruin chong kung PAL? dba TEXT SPEAK VIOLATION NTSC chong?

Makakalaro ka naman kahit NTSC or PAL... yung NTSC or PAL format ng TV yon.. sa Pinas NTSC sya, pero kung multi-system ang TV walang problem.

Pag magkaibang format... let's say yung PS3 mo ay PAL at ang TV ay NTSC, medyo weird ang lalabas na video or minsan blackout talaga

guys, I have a question. We're getting a classic PS3 from Dubai.

the problem is, they say it's PAL, not NTSC. and most TVs here locally are NTSC.
how do I play it because it's PAL?
and can it play Region 1, 2 and 3?

thanks guys.

may mga TV naman na multi-system na compatible sa PAL or NTSC..kung LCD tv nyo wala ka problema...sa games naman region free yun so wala ka problem..TV lang talaga yung factor sa PAL or NTSC

NO problem yan bro as swine said... Id say a good majority of CRT TV are already multi system (check your tv' video output settings kung may PAL, NTSC, SECAM et. al) Most likely naman multi system tv mo. Ngayon kung LCD tv mo 100% sure yan.

Actually IMHO medyo overrated ang problems in playing R2 games considering that most TV units naman talaga available now are multi system.

You can play any game, any region on your PAL PS3 unit. Ang TV brodcast signal natin fixed sa NTSC, but the Video settings of your Multi system TV, sigurado may PAL yan.

the owner of the unit says that it is NTSC, so wala na kami problem dun. thanks guys.
my only concern now is gagana ba ang kahit anong region sa PS3 na bibilihin namn

so kahit region 1, 2 or 3 yun gagana un sa PS3 pre?
