    Default PSN on disc in asia for PS3

    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.

    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.
