I did try contacting EA Support at the time to confirm or deny but they refused to respond to me.

Trust me the versions will be the same. If the American Version has importation of draft classes then so will the UK version. If you pre order it from america then it will most likely not work on your console and also you will have to wait weeks for the same game.

No believe me it might well not be the same going off M12. They took out the import draft class feature on PAL versions.

NCAA has always worked on my PS3 and that's NTSC so I don't think there will be any issue with it working. Now I could maybe ask EA up front to see if draft class import will be in the PAL version of M25 but going off previous customer service experience.... I'm better off just buying the US version .

If you want to pay more money, wait a few weeks delivery for the exact same game as the UK version then its fine by me. Not my problem.

Not sure you understand what he's saying.

My advice would be to start an online CFM with someone who has NCAA already, and use their imported draft classes.

Or with Madden share you could hope that you could download an imported roster file from elsewhere and it'd be accepted?

I always wanted to try an NCAA imported draft class but with all the issues they come with, it was never a loss for me.

I have to say, if there are no work arounds, buying the NTSC version should definitely do the trick, but only do it if you don't mind waiting ages for the game and the ability to import draft classes is worth the postage price difference to you.

My point is with Madden 12 it was NOT the exact same version, they removed the draft class importing from the PAL version. So given what I've come to expect from EA I don't want to risk paying for the PAL version if I can't use my NCAA exported draft classes.

Really if you're going to get snippy at me understand what I'm trying to say first.

Your not doing so well on this topic, saying NTSC won't work on my console when it plainly does and have and that the PAL and NTSC versions of Madden are exactly the same when plainly they are not.

Snippy? No ones getting snippy.

I really don't care what you do. It's not my problem. I will be happy getting the game 3 days early here in the UK which has the same features as the US version. Good luck.

So you will guarantee that there is no difference between the PAL version and the NTSC version despite this being the case for Madden 12. Source?

If you don't care, why are replying, and replying when you don't understand the issue I'm trying to address?

So getting back to my main question, does anyone know of any good sites to buy a NTSC version of Madden from? I use Game365 for NCAA but they will stock the PAL version. Amazon.com?
