Play PS3 games from any country

If you see a game for the PS3 from another country that you wish you could play, you may be surprised to learn that you can play it. Most video game systems (XBox, Wii, PS1/2, etc) code their games for certain countries. If you live in the US, you can't play games from Japan and vise-versa. But the PS3 thankfully got rid of this stupid restriction. So if you are traveling and you see a game for the PS3 that you wish you could buy, go ahead and get it; it'll play on your PS3 system.

Do you need an HD TV to do this? I have a European PS3 and an old CRT and am thinking of buying some US games.
