The Orphanage will work if you use the region bypass trick.

Hello, long time reader first time writer.

When you say confirmed and tested you mean it has been tested with the workaround and doesn't work or just that it has been tested by bluray liesinc and it's region blocked per se?

Dvdslimited is breaking street date for golden compass this thursday, hope the workaround actually works on that one!

Someone posted in the DVDWorldUSA thread that they couldnt get their copy of Orphanage to run on their UK PS3 so I told them about the region bypass trick and they reported back that it worked.

Re: the orphanage, one missed call, work on uk ps3?

I be scared to buy the US version even if the workaround does work. Who knows which future PS3 update might disable it.
