Directions from the seller: "Hi! we don't know until the Gran Turismo 5 is released. 80 % it will be region free, but in case it is region locked, you can just create a free European account on PlayStation Network, download the cars on you PlayStation 3 and after that used them normally in the game under your Canada/USA account. We had tried before with a different DLC code and it work flawlessly. Thank you for the question."

I also preordered the CE Edition from Bestbuy.com shipped to home. So according to the CSR we should be getting the code either tomorrow (release date Nov. 24) or the day after.
 
I prerordered the CE edition from Barnes & Noble (bn.com) on November 11th, the item page description says it will be available on November 24th but on my order status it says shipping is scheduled for January 1st 2011.

Did anyone who preordered from BN run into this problem ? please help


Also, I just received the bonus cars code from GameStop since the BN order is processed by them.

wooooooooooohhhhhhhhhooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! oh yeah!!!!!!!:hot::lol::applause:
by the way, what's your order status on your account page? mine has said "processing" for about a week and i know my credit's good/imaculate. so is "processing" what it is supposed to say at this point?
 
[quote name='frpilot']is it too late to pre-order at bestbuy store?[/QUOTE]

I believe you can still preorder at Bestbuy.com since my friend just preordered his copy this morning. FYI, if you preorder at Bestbuy.com, input your Reward Zone number cuz you can get 800 bonus points which is good for a $10 certificate at Bestbuy.

@PublikDefender: my order status also says "processing" so I guess they are getting the game ready for shipment. HOPEFULLY they can ship the game today so we can receive it tomorrow or on Friday/Saturday.
 
I could have pre-ordered the Collectors Edition this morning at Best Buy, as they still had boxes, and the employee was trying to get me to upgrade to that instead of the standard one.
 
For everyone that's worried about the pre-order bonus from Amazon. I ordered the Collector's Edition and I just got "your order is shipped" email and on the bottom of the e-mail this is what it says...

Thank you for pre-ordering "Gran Turismo 5", you have qualified to receive the in-game Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Stealth Model car. Access code will be e-mailed after your copy of the game ships out.
 
[quote name='Noodlerizer']I Can cofirm the ebay code for all 6 stealth cars does work. Now I have 2 cars you cant even get in the US yesssss!!![/QUOTE]

Nice, guess I can sell the US preorder codes and order the one from ebay.

The Seller shipped mine yesterday. Did you have to use a PSN account other than the US to download them?
 
Wondeful!

Now i think i am going to gameshare this dlc with some CAGs to split down cost also for us to download future GT5 DLC
 
I have a 10% off coupon for eBay that is soon to expire so I think I'm going to use it on this. Sent the seller a message asking if he will send me the code via a message, I have a feeling he wont do that though.

Also I'm curious if this is able to be redeemed on the US PSN.
 
[quote name='Noodlerizer']I Can cofirm the ebay code for all 6 stealth cars does work. Now I have 2 cars you cant even get in the US yesssss!!![/QUOTE]

But it does not have Nascar stealth car.
 
[quote name='thunder_gamer']But it does not have Nascar stealth car.[/QUOTE]

I think its missing Knight Rider stealth car as well-
It does have the R8 and the Mazda stealths that US doesnt though.
 
^I've redeemed codes for other territories no prob. I think I did have to sign into an account made for that region though.

Also, Best Buy is allowing purchases on their website now for the CE for in-store pickup.

[/QUOTE]

so you can only play in another region? not in the US with your real friends?
 
[quote name='frpilot']can sony ban my psn account for redeeming a code that is meant for European/Russian market?[/QUOTE]
No, but from my experience if you redeem a code from a given region such as EU, you will need the EU version of the game for the DLC to work. The US game will not recognize EU DLC.

I experienced this with Uncharted 2 and Tekken 6

I was just looking at my standard edition pre-order confirmation email and it does not show that, it shows the information for the $10 game credit that's all. No mention of the AMG car in the shipment confirmation email either. I guess I'll have to start emailing them....
 
[quote name='ryanmcf10']So I went in to get a preorder box from BB today and they told me it doesnt come out until December 31st, so I just went along with them.[/QUOTE]
Maybe they read my sig, thats why. :roll:
 
My copy should be here today.
Amazon and UPS as prompt as always

i also received my 10 dollar credit but no car code.

Same. Looking forward to getting the code so I can eBay it.

If there are people who who dont feel like purchasing the eBay signature edition code but would like to game share it then let me know
i just made a post there

The group will be long-term, meaning that we will game share all the GT5 DLC from here to infinity.
You will have to pay 5 dollars (1/5 of that 24~ price on eBay) bucks to cover costs and we need a host for new DLC :bomb:

Also the code comes with the Amazon preorder car.
Meaning that you can sell your amazon pre-order car

DSC03062.jpg


that could be the Mercedez-Benz SLS AMG Stealth(?)
Not sure what the stealth car looks like

But i too will be selling my amazon pre-oder car regardless if i got the stealth one or not
[quote name='Easystride']Same. Looking forward to getting the code so I can eBay it.[/QUOTE]

hey what is the name of that car again?
i dont see it on amazon.com anymore.

Edit: Nvm
 
Those aren't the DLC cars...those are stickers.

Can the person who already redeemed the 6 DLC answer my question regarding whether or not you downloaded them under your US account.
 
I redeemed through EU PSN account, I cannot confirm if this DLC will work with the US version if the game quite yet. I will give an update when I get the game in a few hours. I can confirm the DLC makes a file in your game data folder with no mention of region anywhere in the writing, hopefully this doesn't turn into a disaster!

Edit: some DLC is region free while some others is not, I'm hoping with GT5 everything is compatible.

Worst case scenario try using it with a US PSN account.
 
[quote name='specialist']My local Kmart screws me yet again. I had a $20 coupon I was gonna use, too.[/QUOTE]

Does this mean that there's no $25 gaming coupon on GT5? I'm looking for anyone who's gone to Kmart and gotten the deal. I'm leaving for Kmart once mine opens at 8am, but it's about a 30 minute drive that I won't make if there's no gaming coupon.

Thanks in Advance.
 
You need to be a Shop Your Way rewards member to get the $25 "coupon". Once you set up an account here:

https://www.shopyourwayrewards.com/sywr/home_do

You can give the cashier the phone number you used to register the account with, and the $25 worth of rewards points will be added to your account. Alternatively, you can open the rewards account in the store and have them apply it right away.

Thanks. I'm leaving in a half hour. I can't wait to get done work and play this today!!!!

Two Kmart stores near me claim they do not have the game. I have had good luck with both locations in the past, first time I struck out with them.
 
I'm going to pick the game up from K-mart while I'm working, I'm going to be passing K-mart while I'm out driving during the day.
 
My Kmart had about 50 copies this morning when they opened.

Purchased it and got the $25 gaming coupon.

It cannot be used until Novermer 28th.

I was planning on going back tomorrow morning to pick Need for Speed for $35.00 and use the gaming coupon, but the cashier told me it would not work.
 
Code doesn't work with US version I can confirm. Re downloaded also tried with eu and us account it doesn't matter, cars are nowhere to be seen. That was a great waste of money lol

Yeah....I am having the same thing too.....cars are installed into the PS3, but it just wont show up in the game no matter which account I use.....wasted 19.99....lol
 
I just got back from Kmart....

no $25 coupon :(

Nice, I wish they wouldn't have some things as gaming coupons, then use SYWR, then go back to coupons, etc.

Makes it very confusing. I'll probably be waiting for these credits forever, like I have been with the CoD: BO SYWR points that they screwed up. It's annoying that no associates here have any idea what's going on with these coupons/points promos. I asked the guy about a gaming coupon and he said "nope". He had no idea what I may have even been referencing.
 
I stopped by the local Kmart (in Beaverton, OR) about an hour after opening and they had a bunch in stock, seems like I was the first person asking for it. I gave them my phone number linked to my shopmyrewards acct and got the $25 gaming coupon. Valid from Nov 28th through Jan 8th and it clearly states that it is valid on sale/clearance items and can be combined with other coupons.
 
My Amazon Standard Edition shipped out this morning, and i just picked up the CE from Best Buy, They had 3 spidered on a cart and 3 more at Customer Service, So i took a spidered one to CS and swapped it for a pristine one which made me happy. Now i need to figure out how to get rid of one of these copies.

At least you have some nice stickers. Havent put in the codes, prob just resell them back on ebay.
 
My Amazon CE shipped out yesterday but no car code yet.

I probably keep the CE sealed since I already have the regular version from SUBWAY. If you got the CE, could you check if and when the CE exclusive cars code expire? Thanks.
