I've seen some pretty detailed discussion of PS4 disc releases of PSN-only stuff overseas, but not much on PS3. Anybody keeping up with this? Some of these are still cheap, whereas others are getting really pricey, especially for HK/Korea versions with english language options, like Lost in the Rain and The Last Guy, which are super cheap for Japanese, but very expensive for HK/Korea due to the english.

A few I've seen so far that play in english on US hardware:

Lost in the Rain
River City All-Stars Super Sports Challenge
The Last Guy
Strider

River City is new enough that it hasn't blown up, but it's holding close to its retail price even used. Strider, on the other hand, is cheap still and can be had at, like $20 (I really like that Strider a LOT). Lost in the Rain is routinely catching $150-200, and The Last Guy is as well.

Any other notables people have found worth snagging, especially if they haven't blown up yet?

Don't know if it's the same exact game, but River City All-Stars Super Sports Challenge is also a NDS title here.

I have the Asia/English versions of Aquanaut's Holiday: Hidden Memories and Echochrome II on the PS3. Echochrome was inexpensive, as I recall. Aquanauts ... not so much. O_O

Here are some of the English EU games I thought were worth a pickup:
Adam's Venture Chronicles
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition
Iron Sky Invasion
Monkey Island Special Edition Collection
Of Orcs and Men
One Piece Pirate Warriors 1 and 2
PAIN
Short Peace : Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Day
Siren Blood Curse
Space Hulk
Way of the Samurai 4
WipEout HD Fury

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the EU info!

River City on DS is a totally different game, and is actually the third game in the RCR sports challenge line. The PS3 game is a re-imagining of the first game from the Famicom and PCE CD.
