Catherine PSN game prices

Cha0s00789 · 02-13-2012, 11:19 AM

So on the US PSN it costs $40 and on the UK PSN it costs £40 which comes around $65 . I can't get PSN prepaid cards for US PSN and I'll have to use credit card instead , since US PSN doesn't work with other credit cards . Now I was looking if someone knew an alternate PSN store where I could get the game for a similar price :S , thanks.

You can buy US PSN cards off the net.

Yea just buy a US PSN card from amazon.com or something.

Can you actually use US cards on a UK account? I would think you'd need to create a seperate US account in which case the trophies won't count towards your main account.

Games purchased by one account can be played by all other accounts that are on the same PS3, otherwise how'd people stack PSN games like Frogger?

Buying the card online is gonna cost around $60 ( shipping and taxes ) , So its not a viable option and I rather buy the game directly from the UK PSN store :S . Does anyone know a PSN store where I can get the game for around the same price ?

You can always buy the card from Best Buy, they send you code by e-mail so there's no shipping involved. Here's the link:

I appreciate your replys guys but I really just want to use credit card on PSN and was looking if somebody could guide me to the right country store.

Dude, its pretty obvious already that credit cards aren't accepted by any PSN store that are of a different region than the country/region where the credit card was issued from.

They are mate. I have bought things this way before , using different country stores , problem is only the US PSN doesn't accept a credit card that doesn't have money in USD. You can actually just make a virtual credit card and deposit money in the form ( currency ) of US dollars and use it on PSN to get the job done but I don't wanna go through that trouble.

So , again I just want to know if you guys can point me to the right PSN store , please don't give me alternate suggestions to get a card or the game. I want to get it from the right PSN store and I just want to inquire which is it. Iam already experimenting with different PSN stores and currencies. If anybody knows what I am looking for , it'll save me time.

EDIT : Ok after much time , the least I could find was $60 which is still lesser in comparison to the £40 but so far am not satisfied. Maybe I'll just have to settle for the $50 US PSN card from bestbuy
