On the GAME website, I came across this. http://shop.game.net/ViewProduct.aspx?cat=10035&mid=321271 It says PSO 3 in February. With the japanese release on the 27th Novemer, when will the US release be?

this is probably wrong, seeing we will never get a game like this before the US and gameplay.com have it down as march http://shop.gameplay.co.uk/webstore/productpage.asp?ProductCode=GC0588
so i dont know what to believe and dont care seeing im getting an import cos i cant be bothered to wait.

When you think about it, Febuary and March are just around the corner. To me this year just went by so quickly so before we know it we will all be playing PSO Episode 3, that's if the release date(s) are correct.

It would be nice to get the game around the same time as US gamers ( even better if we get it before them ) since by the time we got Episodes 1 & 2 over here in Europe nearly everyone who played this game in the US had Lv. 125+ characters and tonnes of Uber stuff, slower gamers like myself who can't devote hours and hours of spare time to sloely playing video games were desperately trying to play catch up.

You sure? I remember seeing a lot of US v2 players online before I crossed over to v2. Perhaps they were on import or something, i dont know. Can anyone else confirm this? I know EU got Fur Fighters (damn brilliant game-better than PSO?) first, so it does happen occasionally. Perhaps it will come to Europe and then wont go on to US.

i think sega are aware that this is the sort of game that wont be as widely accepted in the west. they may then see the reaction in the US to decide on what theyre gonna do in Europe.
on the other hand, this may have been why Ver2 was released here before the US, which i think is highly suspect, so that they could test out marketing stratergies and so fourth so that they got it right in the US. seeing its reguarded as a larger market, you want to make more sales there, so they wouldnt want screw-ups.

Totally false. PSO ver.2 came out in September for USA and next March for Europe and April for 3rd world countries like Spain
