That isn't a deal. My point was this is a canadian deal and not UK. Also to create another account to download a digital game seems crazy to me although I do understand the convenience and appeal to people. I would rather purchase the physical copy for a bit more.
Exceptions are games like Okami HD £11.49 on psn or over £40 on ebay if you can even get a copy. Price difference and rarity isn't enough to justify the cost of digital and creating a new foreign account in my opinion. Not to mention not adding the trophies to your main account if you are a collector.

worth creating a Canadian account for this!!! :smiley: 2
nice, cheers op for pointing this game out as it wasn't in the headline of other sales link;)

To be fair, the headline on that deal is pretty sucky: no mention of Life Is Strange, Axiom Verge (£7) or Hotline Miami 2 (£4.50!) but Project Cars is right there. I don't think The Witcher 3 or Bloodborne deals are particularly good either, but hey ho.

So ... I need to create a new Canadian PSN account for this? How will this work??
Just Wondering to mr_dick_doge
24 Feb 16#10
It really is easy , you can do this on your psn or on your computer , I googled "Canada PSN " I then registered a account from there , only thing you will need is a email address , I used one of my spare google email addresses , then I picked a canadian address, I used a business address, so for example , "pizza hut " british columbia " , this gave me a address and a post code......no phone number required , filled it in , purchased a 20.00 C$ voucher using the business as detailed in the link above , used paypal , added the credit , bought the game , downloaded and all is working perfectly !!!

Another good Canadian psn offer. I caved in and made an account a few weeks back. Gta trilogy Ps4 for £8 something? No brainer.
Nearly bought this last night but the trailer somehow put me off :neutral_face:

It's great, based on an interesting and unique story. It was one if my favourite games over the last year. Even the missus loved it and she doesn't game
Far superior to the telltale series in my opinion. At its simplest it's about a girl who tries to save her town and friends (but there are a lot of twists). Award winning story and soundtrack, immersive, choices that can really make a difference. Loved every part of it :smiley:

UK deals?

24 Feb 16#15
£15.99 on U.K store.
I may get it on U.S store, but guess could set up a Canadian account.

You can play it on your UK account and collect trophies.
It's available to people in the UK, so it's a UK deal.
Digital v Physical - personal preference, pros and cons to both sides.

Seriously.......?
It takes a little over 3 mins to create a Canadian account, and 2 mins to buy some credit from the aforementioned website which is 100percent legitimate and delivery of code is almost instantaneous upon PayPal transaction being processed. You should already know that by setting it as a Primary account on your PS4, you can then play the game on any other account on your PS4 with no restrictions.
But fair enough, people should not do any of this, and continue to be ripped off by the comparatively exorbitant prices of the U.K. Store...

I've already got a U.S account set up, how does it affect things if I set up a Canadian account and set that as primary,can you have 2 primary accounts or do you need to switch between the 2 say when you playing a game that was purchased on U.S account for example ?
6ixFoot1
24 Feb 161#23
You can have loads of accounts set as primary on one console
cloysterpete
24 Feb 161#24
You can have loads of accounts on your PS4, all set to Primary.
You're actually selecting the primary console for that account, basically you're just designating what console that particular account is associated with so psn can give that console a license for the game you just bought. It's not you saying that psn account is your primary one.
DancinMike
24 Feb 161#25
It won't affect your US account. It works exactly the same. What you're doing is setting your PS4 as the Primary console for that Canadian account...you're not making the Canadian account the 'Primary' account you will use on your PS4.
Once you've added funds to your Canadian account you can switch user on the PS4, browse, buy, download games from the Canadian store and then switch user back to your main UK account to play the games and obtain trophies on your main account

I'll have a look at later on, I need another game to play, almost done with Lara Temple of Orsiris or whatever it's called and got started on Fallout 4 properly last week.
6ixFoot1 to Mum2ConnornCerys
24 Feb 16#27
Recently started Fallout 4 as well and I've had it since launch! It's back on hold though now that Far Cry Primal is out :smiley:

Bought this along with Tales From The Borderlands together for what I'm guessing is about £10 bargain :sunglasses:

Bloodbourne £12.41 how's that not a deal?!!
silvercondor
25 Feb 16#35
Hi, eh, 'saucysarah1971' :laughing:
It's alright, I guess. But the Complete Edition Bundle is $49.99 - and has been for a while. I dunno; I suppose it's pretty good if you just want the base game. I just felt there were other/better deals worth mentioning in the title, y'know? :stuck_out_tongue:
Actually, I've just noticed this deal alone has more heat than the main Canadian thread, which kinda proves my point.

Is there somewhere in here that lists the current uk ps deals? I can never seem to find a post listing them?

has the price changed?
Smelly_Pickle
25 Feb 16#38
Or not buy from it and purchase physical media instead. Nothing like the real thing.

25 Feb 16#39
each to their own. i personally like physical copies for obvious reasons but there are occassions when I cant be bothered to swap the discs around. For cheaper titles like this one, I prefer digitial.

5.28 Canadian psn store.
Dancun99
25 Feb 16#41
That's a matter of personal preference for the moment. A PS4 with 2tb hdd, no added clutter of numerous cases or the hassle of changing discs suits me just fine....have no interest in selling games on, so digital downloads all the way for me...
silvercondor
25 Feb 16#42
I can't stand the people on here openly voting digital deals cold purely because they're digital. Demanding a physical copy in order to sell it on is surely a minority thing, and people who prefer digital don't vote physical deals cold purely because they're physical. "Cold. Physical. Have to change disc. Takes up too much space in my house. Prone to scratches. Easily stolen." Nope, because you'd sound like a ****.
But hey, such is democracy. There are plenty of idiots out there, hence David Cameron getting voted in.

Yeah, I'm assuming he/she was looking at the UK store.

The deal is still there for me - I'm logged in with a Canadian account. One question though - on looking at buying the credit from the site you mention, (pcgamesupply.com) they ask for a telephone number as follows:
---
* Phone Number:
* Valid Phone Number Required for Order Approval.
---
What to do here? Give it your actual phone no or a Canadian one - I guess what I'm asking is do they call you...
silvercondor to zaphodbeeb
25 Feb 16#48
Just enter your actual number. They'll use it to verify your account (via SMS).

Thanks for this, was contemplating it since yesterday finally took plunge and set it up. Worked like charm, got $20 for £10.48, bought the game at $11.99.
Wanted to ask if I put my ps4 in standby mode now will it still download from the Canada store? Net slow atm, n it's saying it will take a hour to download

Thanks for the help folks. Setup account without a problem, downloading Life is strange now. 6 mins to go :-)

Great deal, not too sure what this game structure is but can YouTube that...
I love the Canadian deals so thanks for pointing this out
I go for digital for a few reasons...
A) laziness, I have a couple of kids and it's convenient, also saves space physically.
B) all on my modified HD so always there and it's quicker and quieter than disc
C) lots of cross buy for ps vita and ps4 and the Canada store has great discounts and different games for Vita so I have a Eu card for Vita and a Canadian one.
D) if I was a bit younger I would have done physical, as I liked the trophy of having t g e box. Now I'm 41 I don't care, I just want to have a decent collection of games in one place.
