It's like Microsoft is screaming 'Don't fucking buy the xbox one' Well, I shall heed the advice then.

Actually the ps3 and xbox 360 had the same thing both have region lock methods inside its up to the game developers if they want to use them or not I assume ps4 and xbox one will be the same. With the exception xbox did region lock digital content like DLC from xbox live
Side note there is I think 2 titles on the ps3 that are region locked all the others are region free. xbox 360 did have some region locks but a lot of them were region free as well

Persona 4 Arena was one of them and I had it. Region locking is dependent on publisher so I suppose unless Microsoft enforces some kind of region lock it shouldn't be a big problem. It already isn't really an issue personally but maybe for some people in Australia and Europe as stated earlier might come to North America or other countries where games may be cheaper or have developers making games for their country only and pick up a few games for cheaper than hometown prices.
E3 is coming up dudes and girls so maybe Microsoft will release news more targeted towards hardcore gamers (or even just gamers) rather than people just looking for convenience and the ability to watch TV. (click to show/hide)And dog lovers.

PS3 is region free, Sony allowed developers to choose if they wanted to region lock it. Xbox 360 was region locked. You had no choice but to play that region's games.

Yah I was pretty sure PS3 was region free. Persona 4 Arena was region locked though. Odd that they did that since it literally is one of the only games on PS3 with some sort of region lock. Lol.
