It's done. Walked past EB today and decided to pre-order DNF - Balls of Steel Edition. Got an access code to all bonus stuff... including the demo (when it's released).

Can't wait for this game!!!

Happened a while ago, but it's good to know that the original version and not some crappy edited version will be coming to Aussie shelves.

How much did you pay for it?

I pre-ordered my balls of steel edition from amazon US. Worked out to be about $109 AUD total incl. Shipping.

I paid $147 for it. I'm not sure about the bonus features with this game but I learned after buying gow3 from the us, none of the bonus stuff worked. Even the download stuff needed an American account... The game disc may be region free but be aware of the dlc.

Shouldn't matter cause its a steam game.

Speaking of steam, I bought L4D2 from US steam uncensored using different a country selected for my address on the checkout and it worked fine. Changed my details back to Australia and its still full gore :D

On PS3 "redeem codes" for games from the US have 16 digits whereas AUS games have 12 digits.

That is why you wouldn't have been able to get the downloads.

A mate of mine had the same "problem" with Rockband 2.

Why not make up a US account? It is quick, easy and you can get PSN store codes from gaminglue.com for your dlc.

Also, the US store has more and is a better layout than the shit AUS PSN store.

DLC is country specific, so you can only play US downloaded dlc via your US account and AUS dlc via your AUS account.

True, the dlc on the us psn store kicks arse plus I too have an account for my us games. The only problem is that the movie and music dlc is region specific.

The us version of god of war 3 ultimate pack didn't come with physical media (soundtrack and such) and so had to be downloaded. Only problem was my ISP is aus. and so it would not allow me to download even with a us account.

best bit about having a us account is being able to download games that are banned :). MK9 anyone??

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
