When Sony unveiledits PSN “Welcome Back” gift packageto the world, some were impressed to see a few full retail PS3 and PSP games on the list. What’s a few weeks of down time and potential identify theft if you can score a free download ofLittleBigPlanetorinFAMOUSin the deal?
Well, it looks like the “Welcome Back” package for Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia isn’t quite as generous. There are a few games that overlap, but there are definitely some big changes. Instead of big-budget, retail titles likeLittleBigPlanetandinFAMOUS, you get launch-era PSN games likeThe Last GuyandCome on, LocoRoco!! BuuBuu Cocoreccho.
I’m actually happy to seeThe Last Guyon the list, as it’s one of my favorite PSN games to date, but it’s still a little weird that these countries aren’t being offered games of the same value as the rest of the world. Are boys made of sacks and men who shoot electricity out of their hands taboo in Indonesia, or is there something else I’m missing to explain why Sony is offering these countries cheaper gifts?
Check out the full list of games after the jump. [Thanks, Chong Hiu Fung!]
