GT3 and GT4 Japanese versions would only play on the corresponding country's PS2 console, enforced by a software/firmware check; even though they had common underlying media technically. I think there were Japanese, European, and US "territories". Can't speak to the PS3 (been waiting for this as a reason to buy), but I'll bet it's the same way.

I remember buying a Polyphony release of a game in between GT3 and GT4 - forgot what it was called, but included a couple of new cars - and it wouldn't work. Then found there's a whole market for folks in the US buying Japanese PS2s or "chipping" their US counterparts to play these games.
