You don't understand, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO PLAY WITH AN NTSC VERSION OF SOCOM WITH THEIR SYSTEM!!!!!!!!!

P.S. No advertising for other socom sites.

Yes we will have to wait about another 3 months god damn them!!

But i should be getting a US ps2 by summer so w0000t

That does suck for the Europeans, 4 extra months and all. Hey, at least your not from Japan, they waited like 8 months for thier SOCOM II to be released over there. But they got After Hours including in there copy of SOCOM II. Lucky bastards.

I don't understand why they would release them at different times. Wouldn't it make a lot more people happy if they released them at the same time?

Maybe since it's an American based game, they release it in North America and see how well the sales are. Then they release it to the rest of the world. If they released millions and millions of copies across the world, and the only place that it sold well was in North America, then they would've wasted a crap load of money producing so many extra copies of the game that will never sell. I don't know though, that's just my idea.

I would say since it's American produced it's released to America first. Zipper is based in California. I mean Nintendo, and usually SONY hardware, always release in Japan before the the States.

no its just unfair look i don't mind waiting 2 weeks longer but 4 months thats ******** ans do you know what they say for an excuse.

sorry but the translating takes time thats ******** it only takes 5 minutes to translate everyting and i'm dutch and we never get games in our language (exept EA) and english is my second language.

i'm just saying its unfair to wait 4 hole months and they can translate it way early its not that they make the story up in 5 min before production.
