why the hell is it that every damn time a new console or game for the console comes out its allways damnwell released in the u.s first ?????

i mean come on shiteosoft we in the uk will have to pay £45 thats not dollars thats pounds!!!!!!

and as the exchange rate is like $1.75 to each pound roughly we are nearly paying twice as much for everything including the console i think thats crap

shiteosoft wants to sort it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same in Sweden. Games are almost twice as expensive as in the US. Got a simple solution for the problem tho. Import. Im buying a US Xbox 360 instead and import my games. I'll save a bundle doing that. I recommend you do the same.

Actually it is. Well maybe one game of 10 that I ordered for my gamecube I had to pay extra for and that game still ended up beeing cheaper so its very much worth importing.

why is it released in the us first? hmm...let me think....maybe cuz its made by a us based company? you hate microsoft so much, dont buy their products, including x360. when the uk is responsible for something decent, you can have first crack at it. till then, stop whining and deal with it.

i wouldnt if i didnt have to since right at the beginning before microsoft was sooo big bill gates stole his idea for windows from apple and the idea for a mouse came from zerox.

apart from all that crap the reason why i am soooo pissed is because of the xboxlive situation by which i mean when we do finally get our more expensive consoles and games people in the u.s have had sooo much time to get to know the games inside out we dont stand a chance do we?.
i allways thought xbox live was for world wide gameplay between all countrys.... was i wrong ? it just seems to me that if we in the uk and other people like in sweeden ect ect.. should get the games and consoles at the same time since we pay more for all that even xbox live subscriptions.

just my opinion thats all
