On a recent trip to the US the friend I was staying with bought the PS3 Move bundle. We had a blast playing the Sports Champions game included disk including Table Tennis. Discus Golf etc.

So when I got home I decided to purchase the bundle myself. However disappointingly the local bundling (and it appears to be the same in the UK based on Amazon.co.uk) is different. Instead of the included Sports Champion game, the included disc is just a set of sample Move games. The Sports Champion sampler only includes Discus Gold (and only one round) and Table Tennis (one set).  It's basically a waste of time.

I wonder what possessed Sony to have different bundling around the world?

Im pretty sure the original package came with the Sports pack as a promotion but it disappeared off the shelves pretty quick.... Ive been looking for the game on its own and its either rare or over priced for what it is from what ive seen so far.

I bought one for US$17 from ebay which seemed like a good deal to me. JB had them for about $60 which seemed too much for what it was.
