Any website you know that sells NBA 2k17?

[pavkoneunundneunzig]

i don't know for sure this is the first time i've purchased from them so i'm hoping they're legit. i did contact them before ordering to find out if the key would activate in the us, because gamesplanet's was region locked, and they assured me it would so i gave it a shot.

they seem to have a good reputation according to this site if it helps

How did it go for you? Have you successfully activated? Or better, has Steam shown you that it is NBA 2K17 (Europe) or just NBA 2K17?

Btw, I have just received an e-mail from Gamingdragons saying that their version is region-free. They are selling the game for 40 bucks, so still a great price I would say. Here is the mail:

Hello.
The game is region free. there is a version which lets you play on the 16th of September.
Its the Early Tip Off version, you can purchase it here:

Thanks.

I'd prefer not to buy the game from one of these cdkey websites but 2k is leaving me no choice. I am not spending $59.99 on the digital version. Period.

It says this as I add it to cart..

This version of the game may NOT be able to be activated in USA/NA region.

I have had my copy pre-ordered from there for like a week now. It is not going to be a early tip off key. You will get it on the 20th. At this point I'm a little worried it will also be region locked.

Maybe it´s just a precautionary warning that they put next to a certain type of games. If anything, you could make a refund, but since they have explicitly stated in the e-mail that the game is region-free, I doubt it would be otherwise.

I don't think a region free version of this game exists. It is region locked for UK/Asia/Middle East or US/South America/Australia. There is no magical region free version. Has to be one or the other.

I am quite sure gaming dragons cd-key is region locked to Europe. When I typed cd-key into steam it said something like NBA 2k17 - EUROPE.

And this cd-key you have bought was from gaming dragons?

[CasE]

Yep. Early tip-off edition.

[pavkoneunundneunzig]

Yep. Early tip-off edition.

Then I honestly don't understand why would they say that it's region-free. Especially giving me a green light on buying the game after I have told them that I live in Canada. I still believe that you can play the game in Canada, if only for the fact that I was able to activate the game w/o any problems. Plus, there is this thing I have found: https://steamdb.info/sub/125712/

Wonder if this site is legit: Nearly 3000 reviews 4.5/5 stars.

$32.99 for 2K17 is ridiculous. I thought I got a deal at $39.99 with a coupon code from Green Man Gaming.

[mcoll86]

seems there having issues over there. i onkw it wasnt region lcoked sept 10th now it aapers they lcoked to eu area.

[Book_Gazette]

Maybe try out gamestop? I mean its legit, as I'm gonna trade in my copy of 2k16 for hopefully a rebate

[TBM]

Lol, if you're going to do Gamestop, just do Steam.

[Book_Gazette]

Lol, if you're going to do Gamestop, just do Steam.

I got a useless copy of 2K16 on XO, then why not just trade it in for a small 10-20 dollar rebate?

[JWL3]

Lol, if you're going to do Gamestop, just do Steam.

Seconded. I haven't bought anything from Gamestop since the 90's. They're rip off artists at every step of the way. Price is always MSRP. They don't price match. They got rid of PC games for the most part. And they give you horrid buy back rates for used console games despite charging 90% for a pre-owned console game.

[Andrew]

And again, with no physical copies (except for keys in boxes or on cards), you're going to have to deal with the download times anyway.

[dreamagain]

I am going to purchase from g2play.net was like $41. Will let you know how it goes. Currently order is "on hold"

[h3roz]

Gamersdeal is EU key they finally updated the site and changed to that nice to know after waiting all this time that I can't use my key.... I guess 2k decided to put region locks this year cus last year I had no issues.

They claim they will refund my money said it will take up a week and that they only sell EU keys, but no where on their site does it say that. It also didn't say EU when orginally purchased these sites are very shady indeed.

[Hadley88]

Poor Americans, its like Dark Souls for Japan. They also have Regionlocked Version that work everywhere but in Japan. I guess 2K thinks most Americans are Console-Peasants!

[Andrew]

I guess 2K thinks most Americans are Console-Peasants!

And the numbers would back them up if they did.
