Actually u CAN play any-region games on any-region PS3 console, as long as u don't plan to add-on any downloaded contents to the game from different regions. The region markings are for downloadable contents u see. If u are in Asia the region is 3, so when u download stuff u will get R3 contents.
Lets say ur console's R3 n u wanna d/load extra maps for game A which is R1... the game will crash. Make sure the game is R3 first.
Hope im not confusing u.

Can us PS3 games work on a UK PS3 console?
Im sorry to tell you that the U.S PS3 games will not work on UK PS3 console, and the reason for that is -The PS3 games are made with regions. The US PS3 games are made for region 1 and UK PS3 games are region 2... Therefore the region 1 ps3 console will only play region 1 ps3 games, just like region 2 ps3 console will only play region 2 ps3 games. Hope that makes any sense. If you have more questions just message me. The reason is not region coding, but it is the USA TV design system is different from the others and games made to work for the USA system do not all have the ability to be changed and be played on the UK and Europe TVs. The affect is the same as if they were region coded except that region coding fixes also will not work because it is the TVs that can not play the games and not the PS3
Can the PS3 from the US read Canadian PS3 games?

Can PlayStation 3 games go in a regular PlayStation?
No, they cannot. But you can play PlayStation 1 games on a PS2, and PS2 games on a PS3 (but on later models, the PS3 cannot play them).
Will American playstation 3 games work Australian playstation 3 console?
No, the games are region locked. Like the games I bought in the US have the number 1 on the side, so your PS3 would have to be region code 1.This answer is infact, wrong. The PS3 is region free. Meaning games from all around the world can be played on it. The only things which wont work on your ps3 because of a region lock are PS1 games, PS2 games and Blu-ray films.Sources: I have been abroad numerous times and bought PS3 games. They have all worked.
Can you play PlayStation 1 games on a PlayStation 3 game console?
