    Yeah I tried that already but then won't accept card as billing address doesn't match

    Persona 4 Arena though is the only region locked game on PS3.
    While the game itself isn't region locked DC universe online has it's servers region locked, the US download/disc only connects to the US servers and subscriptions don't carry over even if you get the EU version and played on your US account.

    With Digital growing I can't see either MS or Sony turning a blind eye to it in the future, people importing games from Canada is one thing but using the US store is no more difficult than the EU one; and it wouldn't be like a corporation to leave money on the table.

    Just tried to buy another US code off Amazon and got this: "Online Game Codes are only available to US customers".

    I have my billing address to match my card but my delivery address is a US one. Pretty sure I was able to purchase with that combination last time.

    No billing address will have to be US as well an alternative to Amazon is pcgamesupply.com you can pay via PayPal

    Yeah ^, you need a US billing address, anything works. Also coming up to blackfriday / cyber Monday, amazon.com usually have 12 months PS+ for $30, 2013 was good because the free US/EU games per month was different, that's not been the case this year unfortunately.

    Some good bargains on there. Picked up Lego Marvel and Lego Hobbit for 40$, which is half the price of just one of the games on the Irish store!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,893 ✭✭✭RoyalCelt


    Set up a US account and got a friend in the US to buy me 250$ worth of PSN cards. I've pre-ordered GTA 5, Far Cy 4, The Order 1886 and Battlefield: Hadline all on the PS4. Saving me a total of 120$! Also bought Hogs of War PS1 classic for my PS3 as it's not even on the EU store!

    Delighted :)

    Loved Hogs of war. Played it again recently just to hear Rik Mayall's voice acting. And to blow up a few porkers, obviously........:o

    Have you any word from the above quote?


    Do you know if the servers are split into regions or about the pre order money?

    Not sure if that's a typo, but its $18 for both right now

    Not when I check. It's 27.99 for Lego Hobbit and 13.49 for Lego Marvel. Both PS4 games. Slightly cheaper for Vita/PS3.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,660 ✭✭✭COYVB


    $8.99 each here I'm seeing


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Strange. That's not what I'm seeing at all. My prices match up with what they have on the US blog

  • Registered Users Posts: 539 ✭✭✭shreddedloops


    Seems to be about $8 with Plus no?

    Also, is Lego Marvel a different game to Lego Avengers? Or is there even a Lego Avengers?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    There is no lego avengers game, thats what lego marvel is.

    Maps should work (atlas now and rest when released with season pass after downloading), the rest (weapons ect ) would be tied to the purchasing account.

    20% off toys on EBay AU yesterday. Picked up 3 $50 US cards for $51 AUD. Great value. Looking at about $45 AUD savings a game!

    Will come in handy next year most likely.

    I already have a US account as I bought a physical copy of The Last of Us Remastered from Canada and I needed one to download the factions maps. Not sure if the US account is set as primary but the online mp works when I have both accounts logged in. I seen a bundle on the US store for The Crew and Far Cry 4 for $89.99! Just wondering whats's the best way to go about getting it? I'm not one for downloading DLC but I do play games online. Would there be any problems if I were to get this bundle? Any help appreciated!
