Aksys seems to have problems releasing the physical versions of some of the games they publish for ps3. Battle fantasia was released physically for the xbox 360 however, and Arcana heart 3 is psn only for the U.S. (and ps3 only currently in the U.S.)
Sony requires that disc releases have english voice acting, while PSN stuff doesn't need it.

I think I've seen the Move Edition of Heavy Rain in stores here in the US.
All they did in the US was slap that blue Sony Move compatible sticker/label on cases. What was on the physical disc didn't change (so if you bought the game, you would still have to get on PSN and download the 1GB+ Move patch). The European version has the patch and the first/only DLC on the disc.

I'm not so much looking just for content -- there's lots of examples of a game having an extra feature in one region and not another. I'm really just looking more for actual games that you can only physically buy by importing.
