A moderator on the official Midway forums has confirmed that Stranglehold will not be region free for the PS3. This is understandable for the collector's edition, as it also includes a copy of the film Hardboiled on the disc. There are licensing issues that are far more strict and complicated when it comes to movies, rather than games. Which is why Blu-Ray discs aren't region free either.

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel

Alien isolation...ftw,it is definitely one of my top games,I played it again a few months ago ✌️
Stranglehold, a thrilling action game co-created by the famous Chinese director John Woo, returns to digital distribution on PC today. After years of being lost and unavailable, the game comes back to life thanks to the efforts of GOG.COM and the title’s publisher.
True that...Good thing that I still got the whole "Max Payne" series in my game collection.
Hmm, the thought of playing this through HDMI on my 4K TV through my rig sounds worth another playthrough of this gem. Especially at $10.
I don't have a 4K tv or monitor I'm afraid :S But I'm going to pick up the game anyways ;)
Some or many blu-ray movies are region free.
I dont understand who has the authority to say what is and what isnt region free also how comes ALL HD-DVD's are region free??
I think what it REALLY boils down to (no pun intended) is that the game with movie will be a lot cheaper in the US because of the exchange rate and want to make sure that enough of the games are sold in Europe rather than on import from the USA.
First off.... Sony said all PS3 games would be region free. But regardless of that....
The game and movie are on seperate discs from what I read. So why would it matter? Region lock the movie disc but the game should be un-affected.
EDIT: I stand corrected ...it is all on the same disc. I read it wrong the first time around.
I clearly read that the movie would be on the same disc.
uhh so what lol
The movie will be on the same disc, HELLO its blu ray, thats why they added this extra content on to it, and im not sure about the region lock thing, but I guess since its on the same disc, they had to do it.
