You must mod your PS3 to make it compatible... which isn't something I would recommend. The best way to play Japanese games in the US is to buy a Japanese PS3.
Totally wrong, both the PS3 and PSP are region-free. Only PS2 and PS1 games has region locked on it. All types of PS3 games can be worked on all types of PS3 systems. Same for the PSP. That is just for games only though.

Basically here's how it is. PS3 games are region free and blu-ray media is not region free (but as you said, where you are and japan might be the same region). PS2 games however are region locked. the best way to go about this is just to buy a cheap japanese ps2 or buy a normal cheap ps2 where you are and mod it. it's illegal, and i'm not gonna give you info on how to do it, but just search the net. there are do it yourself guides available. and there are places that sell chiped already (however this option is a rip-off)

My guess was because he burned it using a PAL disc burner...
Speaking of FFXII, what do you know about the Eternity Blade, I hear it's speculation, but I want to know for sure.
