@z64dan, my point exactly

@WEWdeadeye, yes I know what you mean. You see, for 4 years I've owned a Japanese PS2 and own over 80+ Japanese PS2 / PS games. 99% RPG games. Before my PS2 died on me I could see how these NTSC/JP games look horrible on my Sony Bravia LCD TV, even with a Component cable. I still have a working European PS2, but only with less games and those games look kinda okay with a Component cable, at least better than the JP games do.

So since buying a new PS2 from Japan wasn't really an option and the Backward Compatibility about to leave the PS3, I've decided once and for all to buy the Japanese PS3. Because hey, PS3 is region free for PS3 games, right? At least.... I thought. Really, if I knew this beforehand, I most likely wouldn't bought the PS3 from Japan in the first place, and then again I would be stuck with the question: what to do with my JP PS2 / PS collection?

@Everyone, really I appreciate your support. Saying this on a Dutch website and I get no response or being spitted out in the sense of... like we care.

I'm not sure if this is an issue of Insomniac or Sony, but since Uncharted and Oblivion are censured via the Japanese system, I wouldn't be surprised R&C is a Japan Sony system issue as well. Really, blood censuring I honestly don't care about, I'm not fond of that stuff to begin with anyway, but getting an entire different version game on your system then suppose to, then that's another thing.

@NJ5, I don't know who's faulth it is here, but Insomiac said: "Although the Japanese Ratchet won't be unlockable in the US version"..., so they've lied on that one or are for a total mystery as well as soon as they read my mail.

@Jhlennon1, yeah you're right. The thing is I don't hear this about European nor American PS3 systems, or am I wrong?

I'm seriously considering buying an European system "as well". I'm even crazy considering this!
