PS3 Imports into Europe banned
 
Shocking news for Sony, PS3 imports have been banned into Europe for at least 10 days.

LG claims that Sony Blu-ray players, including the PS3, infringe on LG patents , if the ban last longer than 10 days shortages could arise.

this is a long running dispute between LG and Sony over patents, only recently sony sued LG over mobile patents.

this could get messy

Black ops smack ops, KZ3 is where it's at!

kz3 in 3d is very very good, even the 3d settings for black ops look sweet
