Psygnosis Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 (edited) Got my copies of GTA from PlayAsia today. Shipped on May 6th, Delivered May 8th. Used UPS, but with $10 discount coupon then it all worked out in the end. Tried the online and it works great, so no problems whatsoever with the import version.

For most other games, PAL are typically always on the same game servers & US are seperate... Asian,Singapore 18+ copy. Region2, which would align with the US version i think. I havent actually tried to join any servers yet, just hooked up with a friend in a private game. Ill try the game servers, and see what comes up ....

Around 18meg, doesnt take a few minutes on a cable connection. The patch apparently addresses server issues mainly. Altho even if your only playing single player you still need to install the update.

Lukass1503560035 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Can anyone offer answers for these questions for GTA4 on PS3: 1. Does anyone know what is missing in the local version? 2. For imports does anyone know what the impact / difference would be between the U.S. PS3 version and the U.K. PAL PS3 version? Thanks in advance - I need advice deciding which to buy - Damn those classification people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicarius123 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Difference between UK and US version will be the ability to play on an old crappy PAL TV or not That's about it. I got the UK version just so it's fully compatible with everything. There's really not much lacking from the local version, nothing that would decrease the quality of gameplay, but I'm damn sure going to have the full title no matter what!
