UK Release?

Imperialoutpost · 11-30-2011, 09:14 AM

Can't find this on the UK marketplace - anyone know if it has a different release date here? Was looking forward to playing this tonight...

*EDIT* - Digitalspy have this marked as US only... Arrggghhhh!! Can't find any info on a European release...

Gutted! I was so looking forward to this as I finished off all the old ones ages ago

Maybe if enough of us make a fuss they'll release it here?

Make a US acc and get some US msp off xboxliveuk76.com =) they're same price as UK points

I'll be doing this later on my US tag

Just tried to get the trial of xbox.com but said not available in my region!

ITS US ONLY

You need to make a US tag/acc (you can find out how in the forums) and then purchase some US msp (from a site like xboxliveuk76.com or link your paypal to it via the dash) and purchase it for 800msp.... then you can sign into your UK tag and play it =)

So far its quite good

Why is Canada left out of this?... We're the same freaken region as the US.

I share your frustration, rather pissed I have to go through the headache of making a second account for something so stupid..

I can be almost certain that its due to licensing rights for the films featured in the game.

Different film studios own the rights to films in different countries, 20th Century Fox might own the rights to a film in the US while Paramount have the rights for the UK and so on. Getting the licensing localized for each country would be a time consuming and expensive nightmare so don't hold your breath for a release in any other country.

I have this finally downloading now. Can't believe I forgot you could pay using Paypal now. Makes using my US account so much easier

Well on Wednesday and Thursday I sure couldn't get it in Canada. I'll try again today before I completely write it off.
