I just ordered from amazon and already got confirmation of my promotional code

# 63 EnigmaNemesis @ 01/25/10 08:06 PM

Well they will be listing them on PSN, so you can wait then if you are willing to pay.

I'll most likely put the $5 I have left over from Madden and put it on this game. Then I'll go get the game from a mom and pop store. I'll be damned if I'm waiting the extra few days.

I can totally understand. But I also hope everyone understands with licensing and legal terms, they have to provide with what they can in that regards as well. I am sure that has a lot to do with it, considering this is for all game publishers that go through with this, and not just Sony.

But you must realize...this is not Sony...this is the policy of the online retailers.

I always get two copies.(I gotta get myself a backup)...
So I will pre-order and give my code for the classics to someone outside the U.S.
Maybe there are others who aren't going to use them that might be willing to do the same.(I don't know if this is allowed though)

I totally understand the frustration.

You should talk to your local retailers about why they don't look to achieve the same status as other retailers. What is the retailer called...Futureshop?

BTW...have you tried Wal-Mart.com? What about Best Buy online? What about a few of the other retailers listed?

And you said that you could get the game via Gamestop and the voucher, if I understood you correctly, but you have to wait 2 weeks for the shipment. Why not go that route?

I'd do this, but the vouchers, at least via Gamestop, aren't handed out until the game is handed out. Too much of a hassle to return the game and such.

# 71 Knight165 @ 01/25/10 08:44 PM

I've never used the vouchers.
Is what I'm proposing even possible?

I disagree with this statement. We have Eb games here in Canada which is a sister store of gamestop. Also future shop is a sister store to best buy. Sony should be shipping pre order content vouchers to these stores. I completely agree with the frustration.
I read somewhere that u can start a franchise using a different stadium. I was very excited to be able to start a blue jays franchise at one of the classic stadiums because Rogers stadium is very bland and boring to look at. I have no problem paying for DLC but the wording leads me to believe that DLC may not be available till after march 2. So then I'm stuck waiting to start a franchise till DLC is available because I live in Canada. That sucks.

ya you would just PM the person one of your voucher codes. People do it all the time.

# 74 EnigmaNemesis @ 01/25/10 08:46 PM

We do understand your frustrations. There are games and goodies given out all the time for games in Japan and Europe that US has no access to as well.

But being upset about something and understanding the process with legalese and retailer rules are separate.

It has been said plenty of times on the Playstation.blog as other sites about legal issues and such for things like this to online movie rentals on the PSN. I would imagine it is all in the same category.

Not like Sony is trying to do this on purpose.

Take Heavy Rain for example. In Europe, they don't offer any type of pre-order like programs for things with games. So there is a Collector's Edition that comes with the first DLC episode included. Here in the States, we will not have that Collector's, but if we pre-oder the game, we will get again, a voucher to get that DLC. But miss out on the other included Collector's items. The game is made in France (Europe). So it happens.

Just because stores are "sister stores" means absolutely nothing. They still operate under different rules on certain aspects in different countries. It is not Sony's fault if the retailers don't have a policy in place to do such a thing in your respected country. To get angry on here about it, does not change anything other than create hostility on the forums.

***Following Knight's goodwill toward fellow Show fanatics, I'd like to extend one as well and maybe fellow OS'ers would be willing to follow suit.***

Dave(dmrich28)....I'm willing to help you out man as I understand your frustration, I truly do. So with that, if you'd like...I'll buy you a copy of Show '10 and get the voucher code and send it to you if you're willing to pay for the shipping fees and game via Paypal. No other fees involved.

Let me know man...and I'll preorder the game tomorrow at Gamestop.

Awesome.
I wish I was PayPal savvy(I can't even figure out how to put money into my account

)....I'd set it up for a mass shipment to outside the U.S.
