Sorry if this has been asked/answered elsewhere, but I have a UK psn account and have boughta US copy of Wipeout 2048 for Vita. Unfortunately, the included online redemption code is not valid who I presume is a US/UK issue. Is there anyway around this rather than purchase the code from the uk store?

no m8, no way round that one as the vita locks you into using one psn id, how did you manage to end up with a  US version of 2048 in 1st place? theres a good chance that someone in the US ps support blog will be looking for your code, but whether they could give you anything useful in return is doubtful. you never know though, i mean there just could be someone there in same position as you.

D'oh. No worries as got the ame cheap so even if I buy the uk onlin pass, I still got a good deal. Just wondered if these was any way to use my US account on my PS3 to synch the pass over to th Vita.

Just to quickly jump in!

The game region is also important here. If you have a US game, you need a US code and PSN account. Even if you purchase an EU code, it will not work on an american copy of the game. You will need to repurchase the UK version of the game in order for it to work.
The game, Online Pass and PSN account must all be from the UK for it to work for you. Sorry

I'm starting to think I should have waited until I got back to the uk! I also have Uncharted and Marvel v Capcom. Not that I'm thinking of downloading any content for them, but I'm guessing I would have the same problem with that?

Basically, all online functions and addons will be incompatible with all games from other regions.
