Well, looks like the final nail on the cofin. PSN won't longer accept my Entropay card... I want to give you my money Sony, WP:HD was one of my most expected games of the generation... Why won't you take it? Here they are, $20 bucks in my hands waiting to be taken by you. Seriously, FFFFF you.

For those who aren't aware, the Ps3 owners that live outside of the countries listed have to create a PSN account with a borrowed address from a listed country. Before a Mod gets mad, that's the Official Solution given to us by our local Sony management... at least unitl our PSN is released (last official date was spring 2008... ) Of course, this also means that we can't buy anything from the store unless we have a valid credit card registered in said countries. Now Sony is blocking the virtual cards...

Also, Sony is the only company giving us this problems. I was able buy stuff from the Wii channel on day one using my actual address. The same with steam, D2D, etc. XBL offer to us localized content and Blizzard even charge us on our local currency!

Why I am keeping this thing? I already finished MGS4 and I won't be able to play LBP or Home anyway...

i dont know if this is the same thing im having a problem with, but there are these prepaid visa debit cards you can buy, and PSN used to take them. I bought a card today and it refused to accept it, kept telling me it was invalid information(and i know the card was active). I would be more mad about it but i found PSN cards around my area today so its not that much of a biggie. I still feel bad for ya though

Sorry to hear that your not happy with your product.

I myself am steering completely clear of the Playstation Brand this gen. As little as Nintendo is offering me in gaming, Sony is offering me even less than that.

I really liked my PS1 & PS2.... well I lost some interest in my PS2 after KOTOR released on the XBOX. But despite the problems or negative aspects of the PS1 & 2... they offered me games that I liked.... PS3 has yet to offer me something I think I'd enjoy.... though LBP looks really good, it's not worth the purchase of a system imo.

Do a risky deal with someone in the US? here at Deremate the new PSN cards are up for sale by importers, at 200% of their value.... I imagine that in ecuador they are going to be a lot more expensive....

Read the TC's topic. You can use any type of payment any region in the world for systems like the Wii and 360, but with the PS3, not so much.

I had a hell of a time getting a PSN account and I live in the USA. It wouldn't take my yahoo address, thats the only email I really use. If they send an email to the account I had to use, I won't see it for months.
