Guys can I buy games from the PS store? They will send me the digital instead of the physical copy right? What's the cons?
*
Can. It will be digital format.
Cons - cannot resell. some banks block online transaction.

Hi guys

I'm a new PS4 owner however I'm using my PSN from PS3 because I have so many trophies etc.

I opened my PSN account back in 2008 so I only had Singapore in the region.

So I'm stuck with SG account.

If I buy PS PLUS 1 YEAR Malaysia can I activate it on my SG PSN account? Since they are both R3 region?

Also is there a difference in the Asian PSN Store and UK or US?
*
You have to activate your PS+ where you bought it from. Example: Buy in MY activate in MY. Set all your accounts in the PS4 to primary. By doing this you should be able to get multiplayer in your SG account.
Difference in Asian PSN store: not as many deals as US or UK. Some games didn't get updates as quickly as the ones in US or UK. And some games didn't have DLC that are available in US or UK.

Thanks a lot for the info smile.gif

So if I buy a MY PS PLUS all I have to do is create an MY account set to primary as well and I should have access to Multiplayer , DLC anD games bought from MY PS PLUS STORE?

Nice so how do some of you pay for dlc or games on PS PLUS AMERICA?
*
Yes that's correct.
For US PSN, you can get prepaid codes from some places: Garage Sales here in LYN. Amazon or other online sellers. I personally got them from Amazon or Play-Asia.

Getting a PS4. Which PSN country should I register to get the best demos?

You can register 3 regions (US, UK & Asia) for best results.

Hi, new ps4 owner here. I was ps3 user before but never bothered much about psn except for trophy and saves. I had the MY/Asia account, Us account and EU account. My question is since Ps4 requires ps+, which account should i use as main? The US 1 or keep the MY 1? (ps3 MY is my main for saves). I mean if i use the MY 1 will i lose a lot on the ps+ stuff or ps store products? (i assume like ps3 1 the store kinda sucks for MY account). And if i use US account as my main, can i use local bank debit card to make purchases? Hope any senpais can help enlighten me. (i didn't bother when ps3 coz play online did not require ps+ at the time)

Any other tips also appreciated. biggrin.gif notworthy.gif

The free games on PS4 PS+ nowadays are mostly identical across all regions.
If your main account was MY PSN, you can maintain that in PS4 and play multiplayer even if you have US PS+. The only downside is you can't upload your gamesaves to cloud storage.
Can't use Malaysian debit cards to buy directly in US or UK PS Store.
Sometimes US and UK PS Store will give discounts on games for their PS+ members.
Some games in US and UK PS Store have better DLCs and faster updates than Asia PS Store.
Hope those points above can help you make your decision.

Im sure if this the correct thread to ask.

PSN US or Asia better?
Been googling around and all said PSN US more offer, PSN Asia just multilanguage but slower catalog.
So wanted to confirm with Malaysia community, see if there is any advantage that other places doesnt notice.
*
Asia is getting better now. Pls note that some games don't have full DLC lineup like in US or UK. But if you're not into DLC, then you're good to go.

DLC as in extra stage? Or just skin?
*
Can be both.

QUOTE(terryfu @ Jun 21 2016, 12:35 PM)
Saw this response as well and I'm not sure also what extra dlc. I don't think there's a difference. All AAA games have same DLC across everywhere.
*
Agree that most AAA games have same DLCs as US/UK. But there are games like Tropico 5 and Farming Simulator 15 that have less DLC in Asia. I know they're not AAA games, but there's a valid cause for concern here.
Also would like to add Fallout 4 is always late in Asia, in terms of DLC availability and game updates.

Uh tropico 5 has 5 dlc. Same as in Asia and in US. Farming sim 16 no dlc for both regions. Granted farm sim 15 had an expansion pack exclusive for US. In terms of early bird dlc sure some regions will receive first but Asia also receives dlc first for games like dead or alive extreme volleyball and some other Asian based games.

I personally don't think it's a valid cause for concern though I would think some players in US or UK also crying out loud for jap games to be available in their region but not forthcoming.

So if u want best of all worlds just subscribed both.
*
Tropico 5: I'm pretty sure Asia has less DLC when it was launched. But I could be wrong.

All in all, I agree with you about having accounts in both regions. Might want to add UK in the mix just for good measure. Lol.

Hi guys, I'm planning to get a PS4 soon but seems to be confused with the 'region' thingy. What does it really means?

I know if we have PSN account, we can have access to free games from Playstation but will it affect the access if we relocate to another region?

Also game dics with different region can play in all consoles?
*
You can create accounts in multiple regions if you want. Meaning you'll have 2 accounts on your PS4 (eg: US & MY) if you so desire.
In free games I assume you mean the free monthly games from PS Plus, not the the Free to Play games. If that's the case, you can play the free games on any region but first you must download from your PS Plus account.
You can play any game on any region, on any console. No restrictions. However pls note that you must download DLCs(if any) that is the same region with your game.

Bought some from store end up cannot use due to different region. Contacted support for refund but no reply from them.

How about I bought another game which is region all? My current game is US region.
*
You can create US PSN account and buy your DLC there.
Pls note that you can't use Malaysia issued credit/debit card, so you have to buy a reload card.

Hi all,

I just bought a PS4 and I have yet to register any PSN account on the console. I have heard that sometimes games on the US store are cheaper and I can get a US PSN account and buy from their store.

Can I attach two PSN accounts with my PS4? Does my main account have to be the US one?

Thanks!
*
Yes you can. I have US, UK and MY on my PS4.
And no your main account doesn't have to be US account. It's up to you.

Hi everyone,

I'm kinda new to the PS4 since I only started playing 2 months ago. I bought a Final Fantasy XV (R2) Disc, but my default account is that of R3.

I've only found out recently that I can't buy the DLC of the game due to this region issue, but by the time I found out, I've completed the game with my R3 account. Therefore, my game saves are locked in my R3 account.

I don't want to start over again by either buying a new R3 disc or switching to my R2 account and create a new save.

I really wanted to play the current DLC and I know that more will still come, so I need to get this sorted out.

In summary, I am using R3 account to play R2 game, and I want to continue with my R3 Account (if possible) to play the DLC of the R2 game.

Is there any way that I can somehow download and install the DLC into my PS4, but I can still continue my progress on the game from my R3 account. Any assistance would be very much appreciated. Cheers Smiley Happy
*
create an R2 account and purchase/download your DLC from R2 PS Store. After that play the game on your R3 account. Make sure to activate all accounts as primary.
