I almost paid twice for mine - I changed my payment option a few weeks ago so that I could pay in advance, but there was still an automatic attempt at charging my card the other day. (Luckily, I'd just withdrawn what little was left in the account.)

Anywho, it shipped today! :D

Yeah same thing happened to me, got a call from my credit card company.
Now the long anxious wait for it to drop through the letterbox. :wink:

Well I decided to take the plunge and buy it. Claimed I had insufficient funds and made the prepaid card panic a bit (should've been a difference of at least $3 going from the conversion rate but noooooo) so I went with the slip instead. We'll see how this goes.

Apparently my copy got delivered this morning (which is shockingly fast, especially for something coming all the way from Hong Kong) so I'll be able to try it out tonight.

Your source is full of shit.

It was a joke. The fact that anyone believed me without any further information is a sign of the end-times.

And I knew you were trolling, you know people don't like to be lied on, especially on something like this.

Given P-A were auctioning off an opened copy and all 3 regions have a green tick, I would hazard a guess that they've been testing the region locking themselves.

Not that it really matters though since RF has been verified here.

Does this release come with the same DLC codes as the first release? Not really a deal-breaker if it doesn't, but I'm just curious since I'd like to try the PS bosses in MMP.

Nope. It's just the game and the manual.

Has it been confirmed to work on PAL machines yet as I have my copy now and can test on a UK console tomorrow if needed.

I saw my mate playing it earlier, so it's definitely region free (since he only owns a PAL 360).

My copy arrived at the weekend, and I can confirm it works perfectly on my PAL 360.

Shame there's no HD graphics, but getting two games on one disc kinda makes up for that.
It's cool being able to switch from one game to the other without having to swap discs.

I remember reading someone saying you couldn't watch the replays in full screen, but I haven't found that to be the case.

As there are no HD graphics, I would have liked to see some scan-line modes included. There is only a soft filter which just blurs the graphics, but thankfully you can turn it off.

I'm really enjoying both games, and if you're a Cave fan like me, it's a no-brainer purchase.
Time to rock some pork. ;-)

If I've kept up correctly, it's been verified that the Platinum version of MMP/PS is region-free, like the original release.
