1. Reportedly the American Xbox 360 copy is region-locked. Don't worry, UK/Euro imports would be fine.

ALL PS3 games have region free playback on any console (Although multiplayer has been known to be region-locked on some titles. - IIRC, Resistance:FoM and Motorstorm are such examples.).

2. Play-asia say that the Asian (English) copies will reportedly work on "PAL" X360 consoles, but we haven't had confirmation yet. Also Play-asia has been known to mail Australian copies of 360 games.

3. The rumour that the 360 multiplayer is region-locked has thus far been confirmed to be false. Owners of NZ-bought 360 AND PS3 copies have had no trouble playing against overseas people located outside of Australasia.

3a. PS3 US (NTSC-U/C) copies have been confirmed to be playable online with locally bought copies. (source)

Yes, but GPstore.co.nz is selling the Australian censored version, as if every other game store in New Zealand.
