PC games are fine, the technology and formats are exactly the same in the US as they are in the rest of the world so theres no real issue here. I think there an issue with imported concole games, but i dont think it is as bad as it was years ago and there are certainly soloutions. Same with DVDs.

If you goto the US the only thing you'll need to do with your computer is change the PSU, thats the only difference.

Surely you dont need to do even that on most models - they have a 240 - 110 volt switch on them already?
