Are there any setbacks purchasing a Region 2 game as far as DLC is concerned?

I know that the game on the disc itself is playable.

What if they release a DLC and you'll need to purchase the DLC for region 2 only right?

What's your advise, should we always purchase R3 or is it OK to purchase different regions and is there a workaround as far as DLC is concerned?

New to console gaming here.

Buy r2 if you know its those complete edition.
For physical disc redemption of dlc you still need a r2 account

Mostly I only buy r3 and r1 as I have accounts in both. my US account abit mafan thou. Have to buy top up card to reload then purchase.

For ease of use, just get r3 if not familiar.

90% of the time dlc is region lock.

But you can still get DLC on R2 account and play it on R3 or R1 account, I did this with Spider-Man and it’s DLCs.

Thanks for your thoughts guys.

I saw somewhere that Spiderman Miles Morales ultimate edition was RM20 cheaper for the R2 version.

I just wanted to know if it's OK to save some money and go for a different region if this doesn't cause any 'troubles' as far as downloading DLC is concerned. Seems that Simmarjit has done that and there is a workaround by downloading it using R2 and playing using your R3.

You can. But u need extra step on account creation. And get the top up card. Unless you intend to buy lot of games from r2, it's usually not worth it.
Their top up card is not so readily available like US and JAP accounts.

Somehow r2 has lesser discount, and games is more expensive there.

I got HK, SG, UK, JAP, US and MY account.

Ends up only use MY for ease of use, and US cuz they have better discount usually.

OK.. Thanks for your thoughts. Something for me to ponder.

Haha yeah. Understand you.

I think the PS5 suites me well too and it checks all the boxes.

I indulge a bit but at the same time being prudent in spending in the current economic climate.

Their answers are very vague. Looks like they don't know themselves. Wonder how many units are being made available this Friday.

keep many years physical copy and one day mold sets in and gg your disk.
See your disk tahan longer or PS Store tahan longer

Not sure if I will be continue Gaming until ripe old age.
Digital games are sunken cost in my opinion.
One day if we quit Gaming we can sell the console but not
the Digital games. Main reason to go physical is to trade games to recoup the money and buy new games. I see more pros to disc version than cons.Anyway, it's an individual's choice.

I mean I see value in both.

On Switch I buy digital for games that I know I will play a lot "primary" but I will have cartridge for some other games that I want to play in between.. that way I don't have to switch cartridges so often (mainly lazy)
On PS4 I bought more discs.. and only bought digital on discount XD
*
Yup, by choosing the disc version, we have the flexibility of buying digital or disc.

Hi my sharp 4tc50ah1x support hdr right but why can't i switch on in the ps5 setting,it say noy support

Which year model is your 4k TV?

Sometimes manufactures give different names for HDR.

I think LG calls it Deep Colour Ultra and you need to explicitly turn it on in the TV settings. Some older models have HDR supported only on certain HDMI ports. Make sure you connect to the correct port. Lastly we need a compatible HDMI cable version 2 or above. Sifus correct me if I'm wrong

Yes, in a way.

Unless they say glitch and refund u. Then u can make noise and bring them to tribunal

Yeah.. Let's see.

It's weird that suddenly stock appeared from nowhere.

The website was behaving weird but finally I cleared the payment gateway and received the order confirmation mail.

Just hope it's not a glitch or human error by sen heng. Fingers crossed.

Feel like the situation might be like this.

HN - all PO via store. all self-pickup at store. No delivery to home. hence no issue.

Senq/Senheng - all PO via online only, no walk-in. These chain-stores use their own logistics and delivery trucks. So, PS5 units might have been shipped to their central warehouse by Sony 1-2 days before. Just that they slow in distributing it to their outlets (for those self-pickup) and also arranging delivery to homes. 11 Dec is also public holiday in Selangor - u think their own logistics / delivery guys are working today?

The status of my sen heng order is "Processing"

Buy disc version. Once you've played you can sell and purchase new game. Rinse and repeat.

Can anyone enlighten me on this?

Say I purchase the Spider Man Miles Morales Ultimate Edition physical copy. MM is on physical disc and SMR is via digital download using the given voucher code.

Assume I've finished playing both games and wish to sell it. Will the new owner be able to download the SMR using the voucher code since I've already redeemed it?

All code/digital is one time use and will tied to that specific account. So no dice here.

If you sell, the buyer can only play MM

So if I buy an ultimate edition and when I sell it, I'll be selling it as a standard Edition.

Alright bro... Thanks!
