NTSC version will run at 60hertz, will the PAL one?
If so I will get which ever comes out first....

The game should be optimised for PAL and therefore look better as did previous games. 50/60Hz doesn't matter if the game is optimised. But if it doesn't have progressive scan or high definition modes then I'd go for the US version.
 
My order was shipped yesterday...It should arrive tomorrow (I used UPS because I cant wait for my import games to arrive)...

Oh BTW I ordered from Play Asia 👍

It's true the PAL versions are really much prettier so I'll will be getting the PAL version evntually but for now I'm still waiting on my NTSC Chinese import : ) waiting waiting waiting

Seems like that flight has got all of it's GT4 packages to their countries - mines just hit England.

...and mine is now in the US. Oddly enough, even though UPS says no deliveries on the 31st unless they were pre-arranged, it is showing a rescheduled delivery date of tomorrow (well, that would be today now, :lol: ). So it just might get here... :nervous: I wonder if they weren't supposed to be here a day earlier, and the delay would cause them to be delivered on the 31st...

BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED
 
Mine just arrived, about 10 minutes ago. 👍 I guess I should have installed my mod chip last night... :dunce:

So am I one of the first to get the game in the US? :cool:
 
heh i got mine also but my ps2 is not modded yet, my modchip is on the way =T
gt4 is right front of my face! but i can not play....you know how i feel?
 
Got mine yesterday morning, but can't play it due to the fact that I don't have a mod chip install. I'm too afraid to F.u.c.k up my PS2. Any suggestion what I should do. Is there another easy way in. I heard about a modchip that you can just connect two wires then you're done. But you still have to use your swap disk to boot it up. Somebody please is there a way. Somebody come up with a new swap disk trick already.
 
You've gotta be kidding, first a mechanical delay now they say no-one was here when they called?! I was here til 5pm and they say they tried at 2pm.... WTF.

So £20 for it to be delivered on Tuesday, ****.

Who was that with? Lik-sang (free shipping though) always shove the game through the letterbox.

Nope, UPS via Play-asia, although it's all on UPS. Damn this is annoying.

With the free shipping it's royal mail who delivers it, so if I don't get it I just go to the delivery place thingy and get it.

Can you not drive to the UPS depot if it isn't too far? I had to do that when I bought a new PSU for my pc and then realised I couldn't be at home to collect it.

What day does the mail service start again anyway, please say it's tuesday!
 
I go back to work on Tuesday, and I was REALLY hoping I could have played it this weekend which is why I paid the extra for UPS 👎

I'll try ringing tommorow to see if the depot is open (I highly doubt it), but it's worth a shot. The real annoying thing is that it's in Feltham, which is right down the bloody road.

I know what you mean, I could have been wittering away my last few days free time playing GT4. :grumpy:
 
Mine got routed to Alaska!! I live in CA, so probably an extra day :( :( I'm friggin pissed. I pay $26 for shipping and this is what I get.

You should of ordered from Lik Sang via DHL - Mine came within 2 Days!! And it was only $36 (18 GBP) for delivery.

I never learn, this is at least the 3rd time UPS has screwed me over, and each time I've used Fed-Ex and DHL they've never failed me.

I tried calling UPS today but they're closed til Tuesday. Bastards.
 
I've never had problems w/ UPS before. I ordered from Lik-sang, but just choose UPS. 2nd delivery was too steep for me :( Either way I can't play until I get my modchip installed...and that's coming on Tuesday...probably along w/ GT4...oh I hope i don't have any problems installing...*prays*
