Exact Release Dates - UK Screwed Over Again!

MATTUMUZ · 10-29-2006, 08:38 AM

Hey guys,

Well I've spent a good 20 minutes searchings various sites in America and the UK. And all the sites in America seem to say the same now and all the sites in the UK seem to say the same now!

America = 07/11/06

UK = 17/11/06

So once again, us guys in the UK get screwed over with one of the big games, AGAIN

!

Thx
MATTUMUZ

I posted something similar to this, and there's something I don't get. If North America gets it on the 7th and the UK on the 17th, where the hell does the 12th (Emergence Day) come into the picture. Honestly, if a store gets it on the 7th, I doubt they'll keep it in until the 12th; like my EB, they'll start selling it once they get it.

They are holding special events on the 12th

Also some stores probably won't have it until the 12th, so they gave that date out to be safe. Like SC was available on the 8th but most places said the release date was the 9th.

it sucks to be in the UK! We always get games later

! And bloody more expensive

it truly does suck to live in the Uk and im gussing the same goes for europe , it seems to me that they'll release games in america and japan well a head of ares because they know thell sell well while we get stuck with a later release date for no reason. but youll end up buying it anyway so thell keep on doing it. the only ray of sun shine for me is that i "might" get it the day before because i pre order the special edition.

i think your being pretty petty. its only 10 days, i remember when you would have to wait months for a game to come out over here, and somtimes we wouldnt even get it

Subject_Me · 11-04-2006, 07:25 AM

yes its petty but can't they just set a universal release date, would it really that difficult?
