So, does the game make you wait 7 months after the US bandana before you can buy the UK bandana? Or is there a European bandana which only features 3 flags to begin with, but adds another 7 when it realises Europe isn't just 3 countries?
And while I'm asking, does the Australia bandana just not exist?
Dammit Harmonix, just release your awesome game to places other than America please!
Here's something else you should be pissed about: Your country is full of fat people, and this comment and yours has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Unless of course Rock Band has suddently become a liquid.
No, the real kick in the testicles is that Europe can buy these song packs, BUT THE FRIKKING GAME ISN'T OUT TIL THE 23RD! Thanks for punching me in the gut Activision!
I'm one the people who has been looking at GH3 more than Rock Band, solely due to me living in Europe. With GH3 being out next month, as compared to the unannounced 2008 release date for Rock Band, I have more interest in the game I'll be able to play over Christmas rather than the one I won't.
To be honest, I didnt expect this game to come out this year in the UK. I mean, it took 6 months after GH1 came out in the US for it to appear on UK shores, and that was when they were working with a peripherial company.
What I can't understand is, why is Manhunt 2 being banned, when Manhunt 1 wasn't? And yet, every 'gory' horror film released recently (Hostel, Saw, etc) hasn't had a problem coming out in cinemas.
I also don't know why the British Board of FILM Classification still has final word on GAME ratings? Shouldn't someone else be put in charge of that?
In any case, all this decision means is rather than buy the PS2 version, I'll import the PSP copy from another country.
