I wonder why Europe games take so long?  It must suck to wait that long after Japan and USA gets the game. :D

Seriously: What is the reason why Europe gets the games long after the US? Do companies want to see how the game fares here first? Heh..

Heh, you got to be joking. ;) We are from europe after all. Sony and the games industry don\'t like us.

Never mind sony not liking us.  It has always been the same with these release dates ever since the Nes and Master System were battling it out!  I\'m really gutted with that news!  I always thought that the game was coming out around summer time or at least around oct/nov at the latest!

Well aminst other things it\'s the translation, Speech needs to be re-sampled along with text translations.
I take it that MGS2 will have a lot of both so this takes time. I hope SCEE will include a 60hz option as i\'m currently
playing Sky Odesey in 60hz mode and it seems to get rid of a lot of the \'jaggies\' Oh btw its great fun!

Well if you guys remember our money seemed much better to sony than dollars, thats why we paid £93 more than people who bought the console in the US.

Its was released in the States for $299 (£206)
It was released in the UK for £299 ($433)  

Any know why sony had to fleece us for the machine and not the us punters
