    I just got Superbad for christmas and it is region locked on my ps3, really disappointing as i was looking forward to it. Never had any problems with the US games and other blu rays, also it doesnt say region coded on the box.

    Also my friend has a JAP PS3 and rented Simpson movie BD from Blockbuster, only to be presented with the same screen.

    Anyone know if it is a firmware upgrade or whether you can fake the region on the PS3?

    I don't know about any firmware that can do this but i can give you a site to use that will tell you which region BD will play in & if its region locked or not.

    Your in region B so you are looking for region A BD that isn't locked.I hope this helps.
