Well Nintendo does love us sometimes.

Namco, who didn't see the game as finacially viable in Europe, have now confirmed the game will hit our shores, mainly due to Nintendo taking the distribution costs.

Namco are still the publisher but the BIG N once again take some of the pain off the third party developer to encourage more third party releases from the company.

Although to be honest Namco seem to love us enough.

Grand Turismo is boring and Forza looks equally tedious.

As for Street Racing Syndicate... I really don't think I need another street racing game, what with Burnout 3 and NFSU2. Plus Midnight Club 3 is out soon(ish).

There are far more people in Europe than in Japan and America put together.

So it's on the GC then.

Is it multiformat in Japan and America? If so then Nintendo would be smart to stick 'only on gamecube' on the PAL versions (if they can get away with it).

Street Racing Syndicate. It will no doubt sell well on our shores following in the footsteps of everything else burnout nfs etc etc all i ask is why did they even consider not releasing it here to start with. i mean its so obvious that we fall behind the japanese and americans in all aspects of games. Sure theres less of us but why do they discriminate against us. Surely we are the same hardcore gamers they supply around the world? Or as it shows they think not. All i have to say is thankfully the games actually gonna be released here adding another to the somewhat small gamecube collection of our shores.

Gran Turismo is first and foremost a Touring Cars game, AFAIK.

Well what is it exactly then? It's based on track. And GT4 does have dirt tracks... I think.
