If a game is ready to be released in America, and it works fine and all, why does it take 6 months for it to be released here in Europe?? Are we some sort of inferior region to America, because it would be nice for us to get games with the rest of the world for once...

One reason for the delays would be the translation into other languages like German, French, Italian, etc., although I can't understand why companies don't do those translations at the same time they're doing the English ones (for Japanese games). Plus they rarely do voice overs in languages other than English, so why it would take that much longer is still a mystery to me.

Yeh, I remember having to wait about 18 months for FFIX to get translated from Japan.

But I'm still sat waiting for Unreal and Rock Band. I could always import Unreal for around £30, but with Rock Band being a big funting box, the shipping is ridiculous and loads of places wont ship it to Europe. So im sat considering blowing a load of cash on GHIII to tide me over til Rock Band, which is still TBA for us...
