they said there's 2 novels worth of text in the game. It will take a while to translate for the mainland of Europe. Britain is another matter i spose. Maybe u'll get it there earlier. I say later for australia because Europe often goes first =) Mustang go get ur togs

Wow 10 March!!!

Seems too good to be true, Cant wait to get my hands on this game, have been regularly checking this site for the last 18 months or so.

I will have to check a few store in Melb and see what dates they have got penciled in.

Don't forget that I did say to take that date with a pinch of salt, but I will stand firm in saying that it should be here sometime in March at the very least. *Starts doing up string on Speedo's and fastens swimming goggles*

I'd say European release may be later for the aforementioned reason... translation of text and interfaces in nearby countries... however... the UK may not suffer the same problem...

Umm, regarding the Release dates on the main page, any chance you could change the name Australian to Australasian.... being a kiwi it would be great if a broader designation for the south pacific region could be used.

No offence to my Aussie mates... but it is more accurate for visitors... thanks

Sorry to keep this thread going but I found another Aussie site with an alleged release date on the 24th of March. See details here.

UK delay is very frustrating. But the same thing happened for morrowind.

Sometimes they hold the UK version until all euro-versions are done then do one bulk shipping/marketing. That way they also stop people buying from the UK for other
European countries.

MS also delayed the UK launch of Dungeon Siege, but not by this much.

Heh,you know what happened to Zura when he tried something like this.

Just kidding Zura.
