Although it's more of a minor annoyance than anything else, it's completely unacceptable that the EU releases of some PS2 classics don't run as well as their American counterparts.

While Sony has pretty much pulled off bringing older Playstation games to its new console, with their upgraded graphics and trophy implementation making them worth the slightly high price-point, the fact that most of them run on the American version of the game completely messes up the frame-rate and visuals in other territories.

It's not a major disparity, but it can make for some terrible moments of screen-tearing, frame-rate drops and input lag that makes it abundantly clear that you're playing an emulation rather than a true version of an upgraded classic game.
