IF YOU HAVE PS3 PRE-ORDER

[ntharotep]

Just trying to be helpful here.
If you got the pre-order for PS3 and have the manual then there is an access code in the back cover of the manual to put in. You must go to the PS Store and choose "redeem codes" under downloads.
You do not need to redownload the game you can exit once the code is put in unless you don't like the "your code redemptin is not complete until you download the game" message. I personally can put up with the message not to have to do another hour of DLing.

If you have a digital download then you have to go to the GameStop, SE, Amazon, or other site and track down this code that way probably through "digital orders information" or a similarly titled tab/selection.

I hope that helps.
Took me long enough and I ahve the manual which has the instructions in it...just got confused not knowing when the early access was over (today).

So what do you do if you've done all that and have two service accounts and your collector's edition isn't linked to the early access/beta service account? I found a form to fill out but Square-Enix is taking too long. Is there anything to be done without them?

Question I have, I am based in Hong Kong. Pre-ordered the US CE on Amazon, received the Early Access PSN (12-digit) code and played through the Early Access period. Now, can't login and my CE from Amazon only shipped on Tuesday, will not get to me till (estimated) Sept 9th.

My question is: do I have to input the registration code with the CE disc? or if I went out and bought a regular US edition (which I am sure I can find here in HK) PS3 ARR, would that work as well?
