I have Japanese tours by quite a few people and they all work on my PS3 despite the region coding
Glad I found that out cause I was looking into buying one of those region free DVD players and it would've been a waste.
I'm pretty sure PS3 doesn't have any region locks...which is weird since Sony is usually super-nazi about that stuff.
I don't get it. Why are these countries complaining about piracy from overseas when they deliberately make it so you can't use their products? How else are we supposed to appreciate the culture? Pain in the ass.
"Prisoner of Love" was released on May 21, 2008 and was the final single released from the 'HEART STATION' era. It was her first re-cut single since 1999's "First Love" and her first single to be released in CD+DVD format. The song was used as the theme for the popular Japanese drama series 'Last Friends'. Infact the song won the award for Best Theme Song at the 57th Drama Academy Awards. Physically the single peaked @ #2 on the Oricon singles chart. The song was an even bigger digital hit though. By May 13th it was reported to have been downloaded over 1.5 million times and in July that number increased to 2.9 million. It was the 3rd most downloaded song in Japan of 2008.
"M" was released on December 13, 2000 and was the first single released from the 'I am...' era. "M" marked the first time Ayumi took creative control of her career as it was the first song she composed all by herself. Today the song is one of Ayumi's signature hits in Japan. Her creativity sure did pay off as the song won the Japan Gold Disc Award for Song of the Year which is the equivalent to Record of the Year at the Grammys'. The single debuted @ #1 on the Oricon single chart with sales over 540k and it stayed at #1 for a second week but dropped to #2 on it's third week. The single would eventually go on to sell over 1.2 million copies and was certified Million by the RIAJ. It was the second highest selling single of 2001.
