International Comp Issue . . . hmmm . . .
 

Ye Olde Gods of Computers,

I have a question. I am trying to download Warhammer Online so I can play with my buddies, however, I live in Japan. If I go to the EA Site I can only get it in Japanese (which does me no good) and I can't seem to get the EA Site to just stick with the US one. If I try Direct2Drive, it tells me I can't DL anything because of country restriction.

Now, I don't want to pirate the game, or do anything illegal (well, maybe a tiny bit), I just want the opportunity to pay EA for a game and try it out. Do you guys know of any way to "spoof" a site into thinking you're from the States, or somewhere else? That way I can buy the game, DL it, and play on the US servers without The Man coming down on my head.

Thanks for the help,
Gabby

get someone in the US to DL and then send you a DVD?

Find a proxy in the US, and download through that?

I guess I'll try and find a proxy in the States. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the tips all!
