zheavy wrotewhich one should i get EU or US ? <.<

The game itself is Global, the restriction on you will be for using the RMAH, i.e. if your country is set as US you will only be able to do transactions in US region and vice versa.

Another restriction is if you have your country set as the one in EU region you will buy the game in Euros instead of US .

Besides these you will be able to play on any region you like.

i been reading their entire set up on the AH, it never mentioned on playing separately for both different server so it does make sense, it was only the AH transaction that were done by server from what is mentioned.

Since Lebanon can't participate in the real-money AH, your basically saying both copies are equal?

edit: reason i'm asking "both copies", is cause pc and parts are selling 2 different sets of copies, so i'm quite confused, i also thought game was global and auto-set ups according to my battle.net account.

for gaming yes both copies are equal, Afaik, for RMAH, you can take part in it even if you are from Lebanon, but you wont be able to take the real cash out of it due to non-existence of paypal (2 modes of payments available 1.Blizzard cash 2. Paypal (charges u A transfer fee))

as for the restrictions of Region, You can only post Real Money Auctions on Europe Region if you are from Lebanon, which directly means you have to acquire items in EU to sell on EU and vice versa.

P.S: I am saying this as per my understanding so may be there is more it.

as far as the playing is concerned no matter which copy you buy, you will have option to play on all 3 Regions, US/EU/Asia all u will need to do is select where from game options.

also client is same for all regions besides the language.

For info: the EnGB installer is 7.6GB, and before you can play an expected patch of under 100MB will be downloaded.

I have the US digital download files but i a cousin is sending me the EU key once he receives it
will that work ???
Thanks

im not sure if you are allowed to buy the same game from different regions, if you are you just enter the cd key on your b.net account and download the eu version

the game is global no matter where u buy it it will work in all regions.

yes but there's still different version launching on different continents on the world, even tho they work global in online play

If you plan to play in English there is nothing diff in all those versions.

Nemesis-301 wrotepcandparts just updated the prices:
Diablo III (EU) ( ETA May 15 ) $66.00TTC
Diablo III (US) ( ETA May 15 ) $61.00TTC

I think I'm gonna get the US version, since they're all the same...

and DAMN diablo 3 isn't even out yet and this thread has 1600 views hahaha

The only difference in those 2 editions are that:
EU will be unlocked to play at May 15th, 12:01 AM (00:01, midnight) CEST (UTC+2).
US will be unlocked to play at May 15th, 12:01 AM (00:01, midnight) PDT (UTC-7).

Unless you will be up to play at 01:01 am like me you dont need to worry about it :)

Rody wrotea few questions, which region is better for us as far as auction house is concerned ( currency ) also which is better to choose Gold auction house or Real-money auction house ????
please reply ASAP

Rody I didnt get your question completely.

for Currency AH i.e Real money AH: you can only buy and sell to your Home region as selected in your BNET. Hence you will have to make your farm characters in that region to make Real Money.
