Just out of curiosity, why do NA get this before EU? (more specifically UK)

Archive: 17 posts


Topic?

It is made in the UK, so you would assume it would come out here 3 days before the USA. Not the other way around.

Moved to Everything else...

The game is developed, owned, marketed and distributed by a global corporation, which puts things into perspective as to why the location in which it is developed is pretty much a moot point (not that it stops people bringing it up time and time again). For all manner of reasons games rarely come out on the same day in all regions and it just happens that NA are getting it first. Meh.


EU: You get the game before us
NA: But you got the beta before us
EU: But you get a better CE
Both: WAAAAAHHH!!!


3 days is nothing, really. It's not gonna kill anyone to wait that long. Hopefully

3 days won't make much difference. We'll be able to play on the demo anyway while we wait.2010-12-20 15:56:00

In my local GAME store, they have posters about LBP2 and on the date when its released it says January 28th?!
I think this is stupid, its a English game, and yes I know about Sony determines the dates, and that's okay but 10 DAYS AFTER?!
Thats incredible, why do we have to wait so long

Retailers are very often wrong. They ignore official release dates and often speculate about release dates that are completely wrong. Amazon for instance says the 21st. I would wait and see.2010-12-20 16:04:00

Nah, game is already localized, change system language of your PS3 and run the beta ;]
Release date difference is mostly caused by publishers marketing strategies
