    Where can we check if a game is available in this region.
    Got caught out, buying Who Wants to be a Millionaire:Special Editions.

    When I went to go activate it in Steam, it told me it wasn't available in my region. I know it was only a couple of Euro, but I'd rather not make the same mistake again

    Surely a change of proxy is not good enough because it asked me to re-enter my CC details. I think it region locks you to where ever your CC is based. Would paypal or something like that work?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,112 ✭✭✭Dacelonid


    Nothing to do with proxies, just add a US billing address to your amazon a/c and that is enough


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    I used this originally, and now use that name/address for all needed purchases.

    Pick a fake address in Alaska or other state that does not have a tax charge.
    You will have two address then in your amazon address book.
    Be carefull though, I ordered stuff from Amazon.com recently and they sent it by default to my fake address in Alaska. Was able to ammend the order when i coped it..

    Haven't got any thing yet.Did you ever play WOW? Maybe if it's not associated with your account ,it might be a marketing thing to get new players.Either way it's pretty cool of them.

    So was just looking for a good price on Wolfenstein The New Order and was looking at kinguin. But it's a bit confusing

    http://www.kinguin.net/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=wolfenstein+the+new+order

    8 different versions ranging from €16.50 to €40.56

    Any ideas as to which is the one for here? I would guess the €19.95 one

    Just one version sold by 8 different sellers, the best option is the one for €19.95 as it's the cheapest non Russian VPN needed key.

    Just be warned, DMC3 on PC is absolutely crap on PC, awful performance, it doesnt support gamepads without 3rd party remapping. Loved it on PS2, hated it on PC.

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means

    Hey lads, I have state of decay in my steam gifts the last few months and would like someone to get some fun out of it. If you have something to swap then let me know, if not I would appreciate if it went to someone who doesn't have the means to pick it up themselves!

    Be fair now, if you don't need it/won't play it please don't ask....

    Cheers
