    Re: OCT 10th release for EU players? Why do we have to wait a few extra days??

    I did this on the PS4, so not sure how this will work for other platforms, but I made a US account and bought it in the US store. I preloaded it, and when I check NBA2K15 with my US account it says 6 more hours, but when I check it with my EU account it says 3 more days. This leads me to believe that even when you buy it in a European PSN store, you can play it with a US account. Not sure when you can preload already in the EU store, but when you can, I think you can play it with a US account..

      Well where I'm from it happens every year. The biggest retail stores are the first ones to break the street date (Over here anyways).

          I feel your pain. Kmart broke Alien Isolation's street date recently. Hoping it's the same for 2K.

          I can dream at least.

            Every year the date in Australia gets broken.....at least by 1 day.


            Anyone at least know the right places to be looking? I remember 2K13 finding Target receipts online somewhere which ended up being the golden ticket...... can't recall where I saw it though.....

              People usually post to the EB facebook page if they have a receipt.

                That was it....yeah that's where I saw it years ago.....


                I'm getting desperate, thinking about calling retailers all over the country to see if any say "yeah we're selling it!"......haha

                        I'd like a separate thread for us Aussies so we can see if/when one of us gets it..... then we can ALL get it......


                        I think tomorrow is a STRONG chance...... but imagine if some clown in the country has already sold it! We could be playing TONIGHT!!! Man......!!!

                              Haha yes.... that's why I attempted Target - I recall them being the culprit years ago.....


                              We are SOOOOO close!!!


                              Maybe that's why Target doesn't have stock yet? Haha.... because they can't be TRUSTED!


                              I have a mate who works at K-Mart..... will try him and see if they are clueless.... haha.
