Any 'Interesting' Address's for foreign PSN accounts?

I made a US account with the address:
Fort Mason
BLDG 201
CA 94123

Apparently the base for Alcatraz Island

My Japanese one is random

    My US account is based at the Microsoft HQ, possibly why I always miss Beta codes on that account :p

    I dont have a Japanese one, as its in Japanese, but if you do an Asian one. then its in english, and its the exact same as the Japanese one.

    Its about 90% the same, some items appear on the Japanese store that don't appear on the Hong Kong store and vice versa.

    Its worth having a Japanese account but there hasnt been much on it. I think the GT5P demo and The Last Guy demos have been about the best

    Sony are happy for people to do this.

    When the Uncharted demo arrived on the US store it didnt work on Euro console, a fixed version was added days later so Euro gamers could play it.

    It's against the T & C's to provide false information, I.E fake address.

    :p

    If you were billing to those 'fake' addresses, yes it is. otherwise no harm done. It's just a foot in the door as it were, if only for early demo's etc...

    It is worth it.
    You dont get much extra, just a few extra demos we dont get here. And a few extra PS1 games i think.
