The fact that it's releasing in the rest of Europe before the UK & Ireland makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I wish someone would explain these situations sometimes... but they never do. Oh well... I have exams the following week anyway so I won't be playing it much/at all. May have to wait until the following weekend to play it... 2008-09-19 17:58:00

October 22nd Australia & New Zealand

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

Which technically means we get it the same day as the US as when it's the 22nd here it's the 21st in the states.

/me runs around like a 3 year old doing a happy dance....

You stole the words right out my mouth.

If any region should get it first it should be the UK.

Oh yeah I just realised, maybe what has happened is they are manufacturing it in the USA because it's cheaper over there and then they will sell it over there while shipping it over here to the UK but it will reach Europe first because it's a bigger place and people can come from further to buy it.

Sorry if someone has already posted something along these lines because I haven't read all the replies.

Thanks guys,

Will.

Doesn't really make a difference tbh. They could easily have made the UK have the same release date as the US if they'd wanted.. But no, seems like Sony want America to be superior..2008-09-19 18:27:00

It's probably something to do with when people buy games in different countries. Maybe in the US people are more inclined to buy games during the week while in UK people are more inclined to buy them on a Friday after work/school sorta thing. Still doesn't explain why Europe is before UK & Ireland though.

It doesn't really effect me overall as I probably won't be able to play the game until a week later... I'll put it in to download the spacesuit and other costume but then I'll have to leave it. I'll probably head back to Dublin as if I stay at home I won't be able to study instead of playing the game . Sigh...

The thing is games come out on a friday in the UK, so thats why we get it 'late'. But, i don't see why we can't have it the friday before, so we get it before EVERYONE! I think this should happen, I mean its gold already plenty of time to get it into retailers.2008-09-19 19:33:00

It is pretty lame that UK is getting it last, but why freak out over it?

It's not like you're NEVER getting it. Just a little delayed.

Besides, in those short days, you can check here and I am sure all of us American-people, and Europe-people, will be posting up a storm on new content and updates.

To keep it all pacified!

It means they have finished putting the final touches on the game and are sending the master copies of the game to the manufacturer to start producing the ACTUAL game.

exactly. It's Done, Their printing manuals, making boxes, and burning discs as we speak. Someone will probably get a copy before release like GTA 4.

Good to hear it's been settled. That Tuesday works out well for me, because I'll be able to pick it up and play it that night. (Busy all that day, but I'll be in a position to get the game in my possession. Also, I may have just finished a hard section in school then, so that timing may work out well.)2008-09-19 22:43:00

i'm not angry but i do find it strange that UK (the home of LBP) has been chosen to be one of the last to get the game. I mean Australia (my home) and New Zealand get it before UK.

Why?

i love the spaceman and the T-shirt. As long as they are available for a reasonable amount of time after release, I'll be happy, I can live with the uK getting it last (though it is irritating) but if we can't get hold of the extra downloads, I will be irritated.2008-09-20 08:05:00
