[QUOTE="Just Another Gamer, post: 4401567, member: 298054"] I really don't think you understand why people complain about region locking. Games aren't available in every country unlike the common belief that if a game can be bought where I live then it must the same for everyone else on earth, a good example is Devil Survivor Overclocked that was only available in I assume Japan and US not EU so how am I meant to play the game if I only own an EU console? Well I can if region locking didn't exist but in this instance I have to wait for a game that has a possibility of not even coming to my region. Pricing is another matter as well I mean I live in Australia and we have to pay around $60AUD ($65-70USD) for a game while in the US a game from what I heard costs around $40USD ($35-40AUD) so even with a shipping cost buying games is a lot more expensive locally than importing even more so when buying more than 1 game. This isn't a gaming example but the unlocked GS3 costs $700 if I buy locally but only $550 if I buy online and only $570 with express shipping plus accessories it still comes in about $600 so yea some people don't want to buy local because it is a complete rip off.

I like firefox, it uses less ram than chrome, but to each they own. Nowadays you just download more ram anyways.
