I buy all my games(including fifa) off the us store. Never had a problem. The only game you might have a problem with is the elder scrolls online when it's released as it's split up the servers based on region.

Great stuff I'll get it there so just wasn't sure with ea they can be feckers at time's

Were do you buy ur psn codes from?

I have never done this before so I would like to clarify the steps just to be on the safe side:

1 - Create a new PSN account as a second user picking US as the country and adding a random US address
2 - Buy credit/virtual coins from Amazon and then pre-order or buy the game from the US PSN user account
3 - Play the game only from the US PSN, does that mean that all the trophies and experience levels will be lost or remain attached to the main user rather than the US PSN?
4 Will the playstation plus work for the US PSN?

cheers

Basically you only buy from the US store, you login using your Irish account and all content you bought on your US account will work on your Irish account.

1. Yes.
2. Yes, but any dlc for the game must be bought off the same store.
3. Play the game on your console, don't have to use the account you bought it with.
4. No, PS+ is region specific

is getting onto the US store as simple as changing IP address and using a VPN ?

No VPN, needed. Itll just work.

Ordered there works out at about 46 Euro so not bad game stop wanted 69.99 so good saving. I don't usually trade FIFA until the new one comes out and it's worth feck all so digital is fine for me.

You have to create a new user/account with a US address

Does it unlock on the US release date or as usual on the Friday?

My research leads me to believe it does.

Very interesting. The early release would really only be another bonus on top of the money saved anyway so it's a win either way!

Also when buying pack now would have you to buy from the american store in order for them to work ?

Just read comments elsewhere about Amazon asking for proof of address when using a US Amazon AC with a non-US card. Anyone run into that problem?
