I heard we won't be getting the SE that comes bundled with Hard Boiled in the UK. Can anyone tell me if i import it, will it play on on my UK PS3?
Thanks in advance.

You can import it, yes.

Midway Games was originally going to region code the release as Blu-ray Region Code A (USA / Japan / Korea), but the PS3 fans at Midway.com's forums kicked up a fuss and they caved. The release of Stranglehold: Collector's Edition is now confirmed to be region-free.

The thread at the Midway forums being referenced is here if you need more confirmation:

I guess the higher ups do listen to you guys on the forums!
