Can I create in my PS3 different countries PSN accounts - Blu-ray Forum

jugarogi · 03-10-2009, 02:23 PM

Hi, I want to know if is possible to create european or japanese accounts and download demos or buy games, This is mainly because I want to dowload songs for Guitar hero world tour, rock band and singstar that are not available in the us store, Thanks.

Yes you can create other accounts for different countries as long as you have a valid address.

However for Singstar Store, you need to have a valid UK (Non-US) Credit Card Information in order to purchase songs out of the US.

Thanks Marine Mike, I was wondering would I have any problems with the videos of singstar or I will be able to watch it just like the ones from the us singstore, I´m asking this because most videos are in sd resolution, so I dont know if the pal thing will mess video up, I have a sony xbr4, Thank you.

Yeah it is annoying that those videos are in SD, but in their defense those SD files are quite large. You should post the compatibilty question in the Singstar thread located here.

I personally have vowed not to buy anymore songs from the Singstar Store considering the ones that I want are available on the PS2 as after a recent update you can use those discs with the game.

i created a UK account and a Hong Kong account (hong kong is english based and not in chinese)

if you need an address google "hong kong address" & "united kingdom address"

theres a LOT of stuff on those 2 countries that we dont get

Layd Dly · 03-10-2009, 04:05 PM

Yup have created plenty of them

Its how i got the KZ2 demo, since it wasnt a giveaway in the UK.

Vinomen
VinomenUK
VinomenHK
VinomenJPN

I also use these as my different icons to match the regions.

i dont think the addy needs to be valid. i put nonsense in those areas and it creates them just fine

jamclaur · 03-10-2009, 07:51 PM

I'd do Hong Kong over JPN. It's in english... and the JPN store isn't set up like the US store so navigating it can be confusing. I get lost in there all the time.

hhhmmm...you have any examples? I might have to create an account for UK anyways since I'll be moving there in a couple of months.

Complete goobledegook, huh?

hmmm ... maybe someone needs to say that creating accounts in other countries is against Playstation regulations? and you could be banned from PSN because of that? (not that I know anyone have it happened)
