If I use an Australia retail PS3 game on that account will it work like any other PS3 Australian account?

So if I connect to a game server on The Last of Us, it will be Australian and I won't lag like hell?

And the PlayStation store will be US? Can I use all games bought from US Store on my Australian PS3?
