Hey,

Am going to be in Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia for work and thought I might pick up some games if they are going cheap.

I understand they will be for a different region PS3?

I could be totally wrong but does anyone have any experience with games from there?

Games from those 3 countries will most likely be of the Asian region, which is Region 3. And yes, they'll work perfectly on your PS3, but please be mindful that DLC might be region locked, as well as online play, which is purely up to the devs.

Ok, thanks.

If they are cheap enough might be worth it I guess.

Hmmmm...You two must know each other?... Anyway, back on topic. All PS3 games (any region) will work on any region PS3, because they're not region coded. But make sure you have an HDTV if you want to play PAL games on your American, Japanese, Korean or Asian PS3.

Malaysia hasn't actually launched the ps3 yet, and the games which are sold there are usually imported asian regions and go for a hefty price. Singapore would be your best option.
