    Default Downloading from an overseas Playstation store

    Has anyone ever download from PSN in another country? I want to get Freddy Kruger on Mortal Kombat 9 when it's released. I've already made a second account and accessed the UK store but so far I haven't download any content. Can it even be done and if so can I use that content on my normal account?

    My mate has a Japan and American account [And Aussie of course] and he downloads crap all the time over the PSN, though I don't know much more about it.

    I read somewhere that Aussie isp's are blocking all MK9 related downloads and updates due to the attourney general. Still worth a try but if it doesn't work then that'll be why.

    How do you add credit to the overseas account? I tried my creditcard that was linked to my usual account but it rejected it for some reason.

    your best bet is to go to Buy Playstation Network Card - Online Code Delivery and get credit from there

    They do however call the contact number to double check you are actually buying the stuff and not some douche who nabbed y our cc details.

    Well done guys, you helped a user out, gave correct information and followed the job through to completion. In return, the user thanked everyone and reported their success.

    You even managed a PS3 thread without someone suggesting to "Buy an Xbox".

    This is *sniff* the happiest day of my life.

    Alternatively you could buy hard copies of the game from somewhere like play-asia, I haven't bought any myself yet though.
