alanschu Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I'm looking forward to Farenheit/Indigo Prophecy, but I don't really care much for the editting that is going to be done for the US release (apparently sex = bad), plus the UK release will be DVD, and I prefer DVDs over CDs. So how and where would I go about importing the UK DVD version if I were to decide to import? What sort of wait times can I expect too? I also live in Canada, not that I think that would make much difference. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveThaiBinh Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 It's probably not legal to buy it from Canada directly, for various reasons including the fact that it hasn't gone through Canada's game/film classification system. Vendors like Amazon may actually block a direct purchase. On the other hand, if you have family or friends in the UK, you could easily get them to buy it and then mail it to you as a gift - that I think would be legal. I could do it myself if I'm still in the country around that time (for a small fee, of course " ). That said, movie DVDs are region coded, and Canada and the UK are in different zones - I have no idea whether this would affect DVD-ROM. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Dhruin Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Being an Aussie, I import most of my titles rather than wait for them to be published here (and to get titles that don't exist here). So...I can't speak about US/Canadian stuff but I've never had a problem. I use shop.game.net for most of my UK orders and they take about 4 days -- can't imagine it would be longer for Canada. As EnderWiggin said, there's no CSS for data DVDs. You might have to pay attention to patch versions (UK or Euro patch instead or US patch) from time to time but that's about it.

alanschu Posted July 31, 2005 Author Share Posted July 31, 2005 www.gameplay.co.uk ships to Canada apparently, so I'll probably go through there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderAndrew Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 The kind that happens when a man loves a woman... Ask Chef to teach you all about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Child of Flame Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Are you sure there's none of the gay in it. My teacher told me if I'm not careful I could catch the gay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yst Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Bah. I hate it when Canadian media get censored releases not necessarily because Canadian ratings boards themselves are more strict than any given foreign one but merely because a single North American release which agrees with American standards regarding obsenity is the most logistically sensible approach for any distributor.

Calax Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I think John Cleese was right in annexing America. We have serious problems with censorship. Course Austraila is worse, no offence to the aussies here. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Lord Tingeling Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I will get the lewd, depraved version we have here in swedenland, and then I'll offer it up to passerby kids in an effort to corrupt them and give their souls to Satan while they are still young! And then I'll drink lots of Red Bull. Boo-yah!
