Pre-ordering from Amazon or Direct2Drive to Norway

Post » Wed Jun 02, 2010 8:12 am

I want to get the Psycho pre-order pack, but may a problem occur when I live in Norway, and Amazon is located in England and The U.S.?

Don't want to pre-order this game, only to find out that an English version doesn't work in Norway or something like that.

I don't think NTSC discs works outside the USA :/

That's why I'm not pre-ordering from Amazon.com (the one with the Psycho pack)

Wish amazon.co.uk had it..

Afaik there are no pre-order packs announced in the entire EU. If you're getting the game for PC, I think you should be able to pre-order in the US and ship it to Norway without too much difficulty.

We got a strong krone now anyways, so it shouldn't be too expesive.
It depends on what platform you're having it for though, think some of em might be region locked.

In the EU we got PAL, and in the USA they got NTSC (I think this is what it is called)

Discs using NTSC wont work in the EU, becuase our consoles, and televisions are only compatible with PAL, yes? :l

Hi all, does anyone have any idea when the UK/EU pre-order packs will be annoced? I've searched everywhere to try and find out who'll be stocking what..

If the games coming out in March, then surely it must be soon?

I've been wanting to get this for ages but if I order now from the wrong place and get nothing or one of the bonus packs I didn't want I'll be well displeased.

Any info will help. Cheers!

I'm playing on a pc... Meant to say that I'm worried if steam rejects an English version, I think I've heard something about it before.

No official UK/EU packs have been announced, but I believe GAME and GAMESTOP in the UK and the EU got packs for pre-ordering, as they do back home here.

I just wonder why the official ones have'nt been revealed, I mean, we're really close to the release date, really close. (I think it's released somewhere between February-April, as Spring ends around there)

Spring officially ends in the northern hemisphere on may 31, so I think april-may is a bit more realistic than hoping for feb-march

This is correct. Because PAL is 625 scanlines @ 25fps and NTSC is 525 scanlines @ 29.97fps.
