guys i have recently bought ps3 250gb model in UK.i was wondering if you guys could tell me will it work in PAKISTAN or do i need to get some alteration/modification done in order to play it there?
same goes for the games .(its working error free on hd ready tv over here)
noting that i will be using a HD ready LCD tv which my dad has biught in pakistan along with this console.

Nah that PS3 won't work in Pakistan, Cause pakistan's magnetic field is different from UK so your gonna have to buy a magnetic stabilizer which will cost around 12kRS:p:p:p

Then you gonna have to get it registered or else the government will arrest you if you play it.

Just kiddin:p

Ask these questions in the PS3 section not here.

^ all jokes aside, you should have atleast given him the answer at the end of the post..

Yea the ps3 is going to work no problem, just check the voltage rating.. it must be written on the power supply or the adapter.. it should be 220v for it to run here otherwise youll need to buy a step down transformer.. but im pretty sure uk models have 220v powersupplies..

and as for the lcd the're both the same here and in uk ofcourse so just plug it in and enjoy :)..

as for the wii, to play pirated games here youll need to get a modchip installed.. look in the market place, im sure ull find someone near ur location to modify the wii for you.. but if you wanna play your own legit games then its no issue ofcourse.. and for running it normally here again check the power rating and get a step down transformer if it isnt 220v.. but again as i said im pretty sure uk has 220v power supplies like pak..

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
