Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

I am from Spain, I used to order them in Ebay few days after release the game because of the cheaper price but this time I can`t wait so much time. Maybe I have to check new ways to order it
Is MLB The Show available in Colombia (I have to go there in march) or only in USA? If so, I can buy it there

Psycho - the only difference is that I do the pre-order pay later thingy-ma-jig with their payment method. You've obvioulsy paid up front.

As you say, it shouldn't be a problem though and I'm sure they'll come through for you.

Roolz - yeah, tell me about it - was saying to my 10yo son about pre-ordering it and getting express delivery..all he wanted to know was if I could order him a psp game off Amazon (UK)...got my own back over the weekend though as he's kept saying "when do you think my psp game will come in the post"...I thought, ah, now you want to talk about deliveries! He understands but in a slightly different, non-baseball way!

Yeah hopefully they should get back to you Psycho.. I also paid in advance and then got another receipt for the DHL shipping. Probably not wise as now ill have 2x currency conversion charges no doubt from the bank!

Nice story Ninjoid, just goes to show we are all the same whether 10 or 40 years of age... boys and their toys My son is just 10 weeks old atm, so ive got that to come (I say that as he is staring at me in his Forest babygrow thinking why do this to me dad)

Hi, Administrativo,
Not sure if you can get it that easily in Colombia. In Venezuela it's already pretty hard to get it (you have to buy it on ebay-like websites, etc.) and Venezuela is the most baseball-passionate country of that area (excluding the caribbean islands, of course). Colombia, not being a "baseball country", I'm not sure how quickly it'll get there if it ever does. But, who knows! I've never been to Colombia. You should definitely check out the stores.

I've always been the same...often disappointed as nothing has dropped through the door - it's gone on since I've been able to order games in the post...going back 30odd years...

At least this time we've played safe and gone the DHL route so we'll know exactly when it will be arriving - the Madden fiasco of 2 years ago when VG+ changed their shipping method still lives in my memory - that took over 2 weeks to get to me, thankfully they did revert back to Canadian Airmail after that.

But this way we're safe in the knowledge that we can track it this year, joining the DHL shipping veteran Psycho in an orgy of refreshing tracking info pages and posting when our packages have been passed from DHL worker to another - yes, we're sad, but I don't feel alone!

A Forest babygrow - you lads are catching us up in the Championship, we're having a bit of a sticky patch at the moment..I can see us fading a bit now...that's me being me, pessimistic!

No idea mate, it took them a day or so to get back to me and i must have sent 3/4 emails

Have you checked your order history just incase they added it and forgot to email you?

[PsychoBulk]

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

Yep, no change there either.

Ill give it a couple more days and if ive heard nothing by Friday ill call them, on the work phone naturally

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

I may be deviating a little here but: for those of us not ordering from Gamestop (assuming the majority of us here), how are we supposed to get those extra fields?

Not that it should affect the overall gameplay but it would be nice to play in them (I've heard they are huuge and homeruns would be a good challenge).

Anyone heard if the codes are unique because I wont be able to go through all those trophies?

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

It seems they'll be in the american (at least) PSN at some point too. You could easily get an American PSN card on the web, e.g. http://www.hdmoviesource.com/catalog...p?cPath=65_130
and they'll email you the code 15 minutes after purchase.

Or if you really are crazy about the stadiums (as I am), you can pre-order at Gamestop as well as your other retailer of choice (VG+ in my case). After that, you just wait for your new gamestop game and sell it on ebay for a fair price. Gamestop says they will email the download code on the release date to those who preordered

Man, I just reread and that and I have come to the conclusion I am such a freak

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)

lol holy crap guy you're an even bigger fan than I am!
But let me add this, those stadiums are not DLC, it has been confirmed that they are in the game. Its just a matter of getting a code.

Re: Anyone from Europe ordered the game? (Traditional thread)



Russel said they'll be offered on the PSN at some point too. Check out the new classic stadiums thread. He edited his first post and added that info.

Hi, i'm from Spain too, and i have been ordering MLB the show and other USA sports games (madden, ncaa, nhl, etc) from videogamesplus since 2007 and it's a great online shop.

I have only had problems with VG+ once, with NCAA09, but it was not their fault but the Spanish customs who kept the packet for investigation for an extra week until they released it.

Not a big issue, just the delay of one week instead of the usual 3 days to get it from VG+ using DHL service.

Feel free to send me a Private Message for more details, we can talk Spanish there
