dont bother with defiance again.. sign up for plus and dl nearly 10 games, you might not have played them yet. not to mention a ton of exclusives and indi stuff you won't see elsewhere, I honestly don't think defiance is worth the 50 bucks....not yet... the more time you spend on those ps3 titles the more you will see this, the average game is MUCH longer on ps3.
I might put faith in an xbox again, but only after they have an actual product and not a bank of pc's running twice the hardware.

There's no region lock on PS3.
You can buy PAL games and play them on a PS3 bought in NA or the other way around and they play without problem.
You only have to pay attention to the BLES codes when buying DLC from the Store: DLC bought from NA don't work with PAL games and viceversa.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is not being released until 08/27/2013 not 07/07/2013. I am currently part of the closed-Beta on PS3. I like the game so far. As someone who owns an original Xbox, Gamecube, Wii, PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360, I would have advised you to wait for PS4. Don't get me wrong, I love my 360 and PS3. Sometime in 2014, Sony plans on making many of the PS3 games playable on PS4 thru their Cloud Service. Both FFXIV and Destiny will be released on PS4. IIRC, Destiny will have some exclusive content on PS4. Also, ESO is a timed exclusive for PS4. ESO is also going to be released on PC and most likely Xbox One; at some point. As someone who bought the Ultimate Collector's Edition of Defiance (for Xbox 360), I would advise against purchasing the game at this point. If Trion can manage to resolve a majority of the technical issues, than I would advise purchasing Defiance for PS3.
