Is there anyway of buying it. Is there any cards that I can buy in Gamestop to get PSN games? I really want Fat Princess.

Well if theres a price on them you need you credit card, but there is a PSN card or something you can buy so you don't have to whip your card out everytime, but I don't know how to get it.

the only other way to do this is buy going to any shop and buying a debit card, u put any amount of money on the card and then buy it using the same way as credit card, have fun!

Actually, you can use a debit or credit card. But, if your questions i still unaswered then the only other way is to go to a store that sells psn networks cards and put money on those. Then you would choose your form of payment and set it on psn network cards, it would then ask for a spedial number found only on the card you received. Hope this helps.

can't youjust use your bank account debit card at the PS store? I can't see why it would only be credit cards and not normal switch/maestro cards-i don't like credit as i don't agree with debt so i always use debit card as that uses what I've already got in the bank.

YOU CAN USE DEBIT CREDIT OR VISA CARDS

However Sony have credit PSN Cards that are purchased then redemeed on the PSN store, this allows you to make purchases without any card at all. However im unsure if these cards are avaliable as yet in UK or US

Debit Card YES

Credit card YES

PSN Card TBC

For now the PSN cards for the US are just available at Meijer stores. There are some people selling them on eBay, though.

Like others have stated before me. You can use DEBIT or CREDIT cards. PSN cards are not available here in the states yet. You can buy pre paid credit cards from pharmacies, grocery stores and larger department stores like Wal-Mart or target and even some liquor stores. You can purchase cards that already have a set amount ($25, $50 bucks) or purchase cards that you can set the amount yourself. You can use any pre paid gift cards that have the Visa, MasterCard or Amex logo on them as well. Hope this helps.
