Region locking exists to prevent imports and thus it enables companies to have more and better control over the prices of their products in each region. It's not just video games where this is done, but also movies.

That download play is region locked is a logical consequence of the games themselves being region locked.

movies are region locked??? Since when??? Ive played asian dvds on my various dvd players for years and still do

That should answer all questions, including why you can play Asian DVDs on your players.

interesting, does that mean that most computers and PS2 are DVD region free?? Cause that what i mostly use for my imported asian films.
