Randomised Gaming asks a question to Sony, why are retail PSOne game discs still region locked on the PlayStation 3? If you agree and would like to see the region lock remove please reblog/tweet/share this video on social media and let Sony know as well! The short answer is if you insert a PS1 disc into a PS3 from a dirrent region it just won't work.

Had to split this into two parts due to a recording issue appears, the Elgato which doesn't like the PS3 resolution change on loading a game disc second part is here:
