Dmac Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 (edited) Alright i am looking into buying GTA IV from a international shop as it is censored here in Australia. Apart from Ebay, Is there a trusted online store where i can buy GTA IV (PAL Version) with fairly good shipping time (Heh, Dunno if i can last listening to all you brag about it while its being posted!) I thought i would post here as its not really general GTA IV discussion as i am asking about stores and stuff like that lol.

Ivan Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Check out Amazon, the prob is that they might not have the PAL version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerard Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Of course the UK part of Amazon will have PAL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I could be wrong but would an Australian PS3/360 work with an UK/American game? Anyway to get it online I would suggest Amazon although play.com will surely also have a PAL version plus play.com is very reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not? Unless it's not reigon locked then it should go fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not? Unless it's not reigon locked then it should go fine. It's only region locked for DVD's and Blu-Ray's. Games should work fine from any region on whatever PS3.

MishoM Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 What version of the game are you buying? PS3 or Xbox 360? If you're buying the PS3 version, since its on a Blu-ray Disc, then a UK version (Blu-ray Disc Region will work on an Australian PS3. Below is the chart of region coding for BDs: Orange: Region A Green: Region B Purple: Region C Or if this helps: A: Americas; East and Southeast Asia. B: Africa, Europe, Oceania; Middle East; French territories; Greenland. C: Central and South Asia; Mongolia, Russia, and People's Republic of China. (Took it from Wikipedia BTW.) If you're buying a 360 version, then I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Just use any UK store, amazon.co.uk, play.com or gameplay.co.uk, or game.co.uk are the best. If it's for 360 then you'll need a PAL copy (region 2), and if you want it in English then here or New Zealand (?) are your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vercetti Thug Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Yeah Amazon.com is pretty common if you search google. Its kind of annoying actually, but its convienient to people who shop there I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 How will amazon.com help him get a PAL version. Seriously Dmac just check those ones I suggested, they're the most popular ones in the UK. You could also try ShopTo.net, missed that one off the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmac Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the help guys. I think ill buy the AU Version first as i wont be able to wait for the game to be posted! But if it is heavily censored (Hope not) ill buy a UK or NZ version. And its for PS3 btw Edited April 7, 2008 by Dmac_91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azn Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 The US use NTSC so they're not compatible anyways..Unless you buy an Xbox 360 or a PS3 from America.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmac Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 I got a feeling the hookers will be taken out. I dont think, Well hope, What ever has been taken out wont affect the whole experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas. Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I wouldn't advise getting GTA IV with Pound Sterling, The exchange rate right now is Australian $1 for 50 Pence. It will cost you double in pounds. It would be better getting it from New Zealand as it is 1 Australian Dollar for 1.10 New Zealand Dollars which would cost the same. Hopefully you wouldn't need to go to the extent of trying to buy online. The UK version of GTA IV costs £40 how much does it cost in Aussie?

Dmac Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 GTA IV sold here is $120 from EB Games AUD. As long as what ever is censored isn't anything big, I wont buy it online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 (edited) If I was you I would get it from NZ, its closer to you, which means it will arrive faster. Edited April 11, 2008 by Charger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
