£299? What a rip off!
They are available on ebay for far less than that.

It is a bit expensive but i know for a fact that some people have paid much more for one in the past few weeks.
Does anyone know the official UK price?

All players currently coming out of Japan are region 2, the USA will be Region 1 god knows what the UK will be.
slowen said:The games for the PSP are multiregion so you can play all region of games on any PSP, the UMD movies on the other hand are going to be region coded so you can only play the same region movie as your player unless someone comes up with a way of letting you play the UMD movies on all region of players
The Uk model should be region 2 presuming that they are going to use the same regional coding as DVD's
risky3301 said:In the grand tradition of Panto, O NO there not, check out the packaging for the games currently available, they have region 2 code logo on them and they are from Japan, so that makes japan games Region 2. Also check out the US manual on the FCC web site on page 110 it confirms that games will be region coded. Region 1 USA and Region 2 Japan, it's in black and white from SONY.
risky3301 said:On the FCC web site it has four files at the bottom of the page. The 4th file has page 110 which clearly states,
Region 1 games US and Region 2 Japan,
I have rigid racers which also carries the region 2 logo. One thing SONY have never been interested in customer choice which why the got all sony PS2 chips banned. So that the customers they care so much about can not use back up's of there games in PS1+2.

It's the same situation with the Xbox, MS don't enforce region coding but most companies do it anyway.
lamboman said:thanks for letting me know. Any suggestions which other game to consider?
AML said:Sony promised to make all the games region free, but theres no way to test this untill the US or UK machines and games come out. A little patience.
risky3301 said:Games are already regioned and the US manual quotes region coded games
2 for Japan and 1 for USA.
Links said:PSP games will be region-free. SONY have confirmed it a number of times on the record in press releases and interviews. UMD movies will be region coded however.
