    America and Canada friends


    I have a gamer buddy in Canada and I reside in America. I tried buying a game for my buddy in Canada. I got the digital Gift code and sent it to him. The code did not work on his end because he lives in a different regions. Is there a way to purchase games for other country?? I already paid for the game and would like to gift it - is this easy fix?

    :)

    You would have to purchase from a retailer that sells codes for their region. You wouldn't be able to gift it through Xbox.

    Canada is in North America!!!!!!!

    It's not available on XBL in Canada due to some weird rights issues involving some of the movies. Rights issues that don't effect Sony. Once/if they're cleared up, we'll get Movie Night.

    Remember, we share the same continent, but we're different countries and don't have the same trade agreements that the EU nations have with each other.

    Nothing about switching over one game.......this isn't the first game that has been on live arcade that has been available in the USA and not Canada!!!

    I was hoping more along the lines of them thinking about it from a business point of view where they could lose us Canadians from their business with Sony Playstation treating Canadians better

    Okay, I'll admit I'm a bit jealous, but I'm not going to switch sides just for Scene it? The game is fun and all, but after a while it gets stale. And from the looks of it, you're going to have to keep buying DLC to get new content.

    I don't think it works like that. North America means nothing to them. It's USA and Canada. I can only guess that a lot of it has to do with the different Laws that each country has. Just look at Netflix, the Canadian version has a lot less content then
    the USA one.

    As for 1 vs 100, not sure about that...I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it was available in the US too.

    I'm not dissagreeing with you at all! I definitely think we should have the same content as them. Maybe someday....
