    I am happy to wait for videogamesplus delivery. It works out on current exchange rates approx €48.

    Plus it will be shipped on 23rd Sept, two days earlier than Europe so it shouldn't be too long after that I have it.

    Whats the difference between the CDN and US version

    FIFA 15 (CDN Version) [15 FUT gold packs] - PS4 $69.99 CDN / €48.00

    FIFA 15 Ultimate Team Edition (CDN Version) - PS4 $79.99 CDN / €56.00

    FIFA 15 (USA Version) - PS4 $59.99 CDN / €42.00



    Also any chances of customs getting hit on it.

    I went with WowHD, €49.59 with free shipping for the PS4 version. Link

    Cancelled my pre-order for FIFA from Amazon. Going to buy it on the US PS Store.

    Working out at about €46 and you'll have it on the Tuesday as opposed to the Friday. Probably the best deal I've found anyway.

    From reading other boardies they haven't been caught for customs & website is 100% with plenty of good reviews on boards.

    I can't really see any difference between US & Canadian Version. However, I am thinking of cancelling & just ordering online through my US PS Store Account.

    Take it I need to make an American account first right? Is it straight forward?

    I've looked into it looks easy enough is it safe though? No chance been caught out?

    Actually trying to do it now have everything set up but it won't let me add funds to my account on ps4 using the American address or my PayPal. Any ideas?

    You need to buy a psn card on amazon. Like a top up card, your own credit card and paypal have your irish address etc so they wont work.

    So just buy the amount u need for the game redeem it on the store on thats it?

    Theres two more things just thinking about though can u buy a $50 and $10 and top up one after the other seeing as its $59.99 ? and what happens with the game being out a couple of days before hand on the us store if i go back and play the game on my own psn login my Irish one will i get it banned for playing a game before its release date online?

    Use PC Game Supply website to buy US Store Credit and you would have to use your USA account to play the game online I would imagine.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Play Asia also sell them and dont apply an 'activation charge' like PC supply.

    Pre ordered it there on the US store just now so fingers crossed no hassle!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 876 ✭✭✭setanta1984


    I see the Amazon PS4 pre-order price is £44.86 - I'm not too bothered about having it on launch day or anything, so does anyone know if the price usually goes up on amazon after it's released? Or should I be able to buy it at that price a few weeks after release?

    Think from what I've heard in the past a lot can depend on how well game is selling or reviewing.

    I've seen the price drop on games that weren't selling well but never go up cause they where!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 807 ✭✭✭breeno


    Possibly a silly question but does anybody know if buying it from the us ps store will mean you get the American version of the game? ie American mls branding and commentary etc?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Same commentators on the US version. Cover art only applies to the box, you would be buying a digital version off the psn store so that wouldnt be an issue. Not sure what other branding?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,552 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    What is the benefit of the Ultimate version?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    What is the benefit of the Ultimate version?

    Get I think it's 40 free gold packs one every week. Get Messi on loan for first 5 games in ultimate team. Get few other extra teams kits etc. It's not a massive thing really considering most time I got crap in the packs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 506 ✭✭✭D_turbo


    I just pre orderd and downloaded mine on the Xbox one

    Used a canadian Address and switched region to there.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,744 ✭✭✭✭Villain

    https://www.gamepointsnow.com/codes/FIFA-15-%28Xbox-One-Game-Code%29

    53 euro on here for a digital fifa code. It's like 30 odd euro on the Indian marketplace.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,000 ✭✭✭IrishIrish


    Just seen people here discussing buying the game from American/Canadian PSN store and would like some more details if possible.

    I have a Canadian PSN account as well as an Irish one (my primary account). If I was to buy the game through PS Store on my Canadian account I should then be able to play it on both my Irish and Canadian PSN accounts as I have made my PS4 the primary console for both accounts. I'll also be able to get it 3 days earlier than European Release.

    Does all this sound correct or does anyone foresee any problems?

    Cheers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    Are there any downsides to buying this on the U.S PSN store? How does the match making work? Would you be more likely to be matched with Americans when playing online? I'd like to get it 3 days early, but I don't want to be stuck with a lag-fest for a year.

    Any other possible downsides?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,000 ✭✭✭IrishIrish


    I went ahead and ordered. There shouldn't be any problems at all playing it once the European release date has past. You could easily buy a physical copy of the game from america in a few months time and you wouldn't have any problems. Its the exact same downloading it.

    Anyone preorder on the XBoxOne yet, and preferably with EA Access? Asked this on the general Xbox forum but no real response, but does anyone know how the 10% discount works? Should it happen automatically, or does something have to be done?

    I got €40 store credit for Fifa 14 in Xtravision this morning. Was offered €20 cash. Same for COD.

    Thought it might be worth noting in here for anyone else looking to offload it before the new one drops.
