My friend bought a Call of Duty MW2 Game for his Xbox, and was canadian. However, it broke, and he bought a french version that he could not convert.
When he did, he mostly if not always played with frenh players, particularly french canadian players. Little to no english people used a mic, and he was the only known english guy.
Not sure if it is the same thing for PS3. Although, since Dark Souls allows play for Americans, Europeans, Asians, and other areas of the world to play together, it is unlikely it would be best to test it out with that game.
Call of Duty for the PS3 ( I use to only play it with my friends who played it, but nothing else), and we found a lot of Australians, British, and other forms of cultural people in the PS3, as well as the Canadians and Americans (and Central and South America). The PS3 System's online system is different than the Xbox, so whatever you try will probably not work. Maybe buying a PS3 based on a region, but unlikely nonetheless.
The PS3 is unique to itself, as is the Xbox (even though the Xbox is based more on the computer than PS3, in design and programming), you may have to try things that Xbox and other Consule/Computer players have to go threw in order to have different regional settings for the consumer (you)
