PC Legacies Can't Get CE Items?

[Duuude007]

ok i think i understand now. if i get the ps3 CE i can use it for my second account becasue my main account is 1.0 legacy but i will only be able to get my pre order bonuses on one account thus having to buy 2 physical copies to get both accounts to have the pre order bonuses.

Partly.

If you get PC CE, you get 2 codes:

• A preorder code
• A CE account registration code (with items built-in)

If you get PS3 CE, you get 3 codes:

• A preorder code
• A PSN account registration code (with PC compatibility built-in).
• A CE item code (can be applied to any account)

Of course some game sellers typically have a surplus of pre-order codes, and are not shy about sharing them if you ask.

To be clear, the Windows and PS3 CE codes are labeled as such. If you try to register a Windows CE code to your account, it will deny you because you already have a Windows code registered to that account. This is the root of the problem, because the in-game bonuses are tied to the CE code. It would be wiser for them to detach the CE bonuses from the main registration code, and I see absolutely no reason why they can't.

erm, I'm not even sure if that would be viable. The CE boxes have been in full production based on the blog a week ago, do you expect them to unseal them one by one to change out one piece of paper?

Hrm... an e-mail with a different code wouldn't hurt. Idk. Maybe if they can update the Digital Upgrade service to allow us to input the CE code without spending the additional money.

Edit: OR they could send out e-mails.

ok i understand so my second account that is just standard windows wont be able to register ce becuase i already have standard. if thats the case it woul dbe better to just get the digital upgrade. but if u want the physical stull you have extra codes u cant use unless you want to make a whole new account correct?

exactly. a windows CE code (and all attached bonuses) cannot be applied to an account that already has a windows 1.0 code.

that sucks might as well use the preoder code and then cancel preorder if u dont care about the physicals and just go digital upgrade and just by a standard ps3 copy
