I wish Aussie had an equivalent of E3 so we didn't have to fly to the U.S to experience it
Ewww you made me feel dirty
yeah but the problem is we dont have enough people in this country to make it profitable for them to come here look at New york their population (in just that area) is about 19,500,000 and the population of Australia is about 21,000,000 so it will be a long while before they come unless that is if our government gives them the same privileges as the film industryEwww you made me feel dirty
Thanks for the response, Elizabeth. I shall postpone my sulk!
LOL I think once its confirmed that it is coming to Europe and Australia we should all shout at once:
WHO'S YOUR DADDY!
New picture that I found on the EBgames website:
dude SWEET!
BD looks seriosuly cool (right now im playing warriors of the world by Manowar so it really sets the scene well)
That pic makes me want to throw stuff at the people who make us wait.
I know that 3 day gap is seeming more unfair by the day.
What i never seem to understand is, why is America able to have the game 3 days before anyone else ( is it due to shipping? or are they just being annoying?)
Its because of a number of things, shipping, localisation etc but 3 days is mostly due to shipping and that new games are always released on a Friday here anyways.
The worst one is when a game gets delayed a few months from the US release thats when its really annoying.
I'm starting to get used to the ol' delay so it's fine, shame we haven't heard any recent news on Europe LE
Ill say i mean i dont even own a Wii but the way gamers here are treated by Nintendo of Australia is pretty piss poor.
i mean im not even sure if we have a date for SPM.
It's always been that way with Nintendo's PAL terretories, they're treated like absolute ☺☺☺☺. That's why I bought my GameCube and all my games from the US, and I'll do the same with Wii when I finally get one. Release schedule way ahead of Europe (where I live), (slightly) cheaper games (after shipping, customs fees and taxes), what's not to like?
I hear ya just like DBZ on Wii and now Metroid Prime comes out in US months in advance!
Anyways 2K Elizabeth said its looking like Bioshock collectors is coming to all areas but still looking into it for confirmation I guess its to do with agreements and stuff for the PAL areas especially in Europe?
I know i really cant understand why its taking so long, but that dosent matter nnow, what matters is that the end is in sight.
on a sad note it also means the end to this thread and the Aussie one which have both been a beacon for aussies to meet other aussies and europeans to meet other europeans.
As long as I'm able to preorder, then that's okay. I really desperately want the LE and I don't really want the import tax.
Nintendo really pissed me off with Super Paper Mario. For such a major game to be totally forgotten about really shows just how Nintendo still hate us, despite their assurances to the contrary. I'm still waiting for any games magazine to actually show some backbone and just ask them why the hell we haven't got SPM yet.
But that's a rant for a different forum...
I am interested to know if the Bioshock collectors will come in a similar tin box like PREY collectors edition of course this time I hope they ensure the game is in its own packet or slot and not against the metal case.
Or is the big daddy figure coming in its own box seperate to the game?
I would love a jam packed collectors.
I think Europe deserves better, since we pay more for our games I think 2K should treat us to a better collectors edition and perhaps give us a little sister figurine as well.
What do you guys think?
Any annoucenment at E3?
nope nothing
Don't think there was. I hope since E3 is over, and we were promised an announcement "soon" we will get something this week. If not then I fear we will get nowt.
Jeah I give it a week or 2 max but if we hear nothing by then I quess we will just have to do without one.
Actually while ive got all you europeans here ive got a question for all of you cept the brits.
when you come on here does it automatically translate into your native language or do you all just speak and read english.
Is it not allowed for the publisher/developer to just say 'hey guys we're making it region free'?
But if the game is region free and collectors doesnt come here and Gamestop get it as exclusive then I am gonna be really upset cos Gamestop only use UPS and UPS charge £11 in admin fees!! Plus the import tax!!
Strangely enough a dutch store has put the ce for 360 up for preorder with a pic of the box I havent seen before I emaied them how and what.

Which store was that?
Dimension plus.
Found it!
It's nice, but expensive, €74.99
Hope the PC version will also be available for pre-order soon
its 15 more then the normal one so the pc ce should be 60.
If we Euro people don't get any PC CE, I just pre-order a copy at Gamestop or EBgames
I spy a BBFC logo on that packshot. Hopefully it's not just a mock-up.
That figurine is going on the dashboard of my Car
Well EB games won't ship to the UK, and Gamestop use UPS who charge extremely high charges PLUS import tax...If we Euro people don't get any PC CE, I just pre-order a copy at Gamestop or EBgames
I tried, they don't ship the 360 version to the UK.If we Euro people don't get any PC CE, I just pre-order a copy at Gamestop or EBgames
That's probably because UK has PAL and the US NTSC.I tried, they don't ship the 360 version to the UK.
I got an email back from dimension plus and they said they will probably have a pc ce too.
No.
EB Games won't ship to the UK as they say there is a GAME plc store in the UK which used to be EB Games in the UK, its funny cos EB Games will ship to France I think and Germany but not the UK.
I bought from Ogamingstore a couple of times but I think they have shut down? It was a great site and great people not sure what happened.
i wish lik-sang was still around, i never used them but from what ive heard they were pretty darn good.
Oh man they were awesome the closest thing to them is playasia.com but yeah Lik-Sang were great.
I just wish i had heard of them before bloody sony shut them down.
That's good newsI got an email back from dimension plus and they said they will probably have a pc ce too.
Ah, I see
