By region free I assume you mean one big city, no different parts?

If so, then no, there are 7 different parts to the city.

I think he means region free meaning that a US version will play in a UK machine and vice versa.

The main version that supports EFIGS (english, french, italian, german, spanish) will be a worldwide release, so that version will run on machines worldwide. This version, however, is Unrated for Germany and will not be sold in Germany.

The special version that will be sold in Germany has a different rating and supports German and English languages only.

With special version you mean the Limited Edition right? All LEs worldwide will have at least the English VO included as well?

1) Sorry, what I meant by the "German special edition" was "all versions that are sold in Germany", including any Limited/Collector's Edition.

2) All versions contain English VO.

Sorry Mr. Kline i know you're busy but if you wouldn't mind clarifying the following for me:

I'm an English speaking South African, Would my PAL Xbox 360 play a copy of BioShock that is imported from an NTSC region such as New York City?

Again, thanks for your reply, look forward to playing
