In order of plausability:
1) Sounds like they're making Lair the Holiday purchase, since sales usually bump up around the end of the year.
2) Is there another major PS3 game coming out in October? Maybe they don't want Lair to take its sales away.
3) Maybe they're actually implementing a good control scheme, and don't want to release a patch to the other regions.
There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.
