Also, any of the Shin Megami Tensei games in general if you're looking for some intense RPG insanity. (Ps2/Psx digital download)

I think you're noticing a trend here. The PS3 has an awesome shop full of classic games you really should dig through. There are a ton of gems in there for fairly cheap.
There are so many good PS3 exclusives though, it's pretty absurd. I'm probably forgetting about a ton of games that I love as well because I just woke up.
A lot of those are not available as PS2 downloads in europe. Also, none of the PS2 Classics on PSN are altered in any way from the original PS2 games, so if you've played them on the PS2, you won't get anything new. You should also not get the PS2 classics version of Ico and shadow of the colossus, as HD ports for PS3 exist. They'll look a lot prettier, and they're probably not significantly more expensive.

You can however circumvent the regional store differences by creating a US PSN account, and filling it up with money by using PSN cash cards that you can buy online. All PS2 Classics I have downloaded to my PS3 have worked, although I have only downloaded like 4. You can also get PS3 and PS1 games from the US store in this manner.
Someone already brought up the EU shop being different, though I will say again that it is very sad. But anyway, he mentioned having a 360, he didnt mention having had a ps2 so I just assumed that he didnt as I would rather it turn out that he's played the games I've mentioned then have them fly under the radar. Many of the games on the shop are for under 10 bucks so I consider it worthwhile to pick them up even if they are unchanged from the ps2 version.

But yeah, HD SoC and Ico is far better. I totally forgot about those. Need to check the price on them.
