Black and White is out in the states already.
Lionhead is a UK company, run by UK staff and based in the UK.

So how come the States get it 1st?
PS2 Japanese got the games 1st with Sony being Japanese company.
I get that, it seems natural.

But a UK Company releasing the most anticipated game in years on the PC over in the U$A?
Yet I have to wait another week before I can pound my primate?

I know I've been...slightly nonsensical and jokey with monkey spank posts, but I genuinely am champing at the bit to get my hands on B&W.

But, being European, once more we wait in line whilst our Trans-Atlantic customers breeze by waving their goodies at us, chuckling in their stretch-top jeans and easily available products.

Are we too polite as UK gamers?
We seem to anticipate something, get hyped and then
"Ah, yes...sorry about that, another month ok?"
We stand still, put our arms down and "..er...ok. Sorry to bother you then."

This sucks.
Not being able to buy UK based companies games produced in the UK by UK developers sucks.

That is all.
