What? Gutted, I am.

Time to start a rumour - The delay of N3 in Europe is because it will be
based on the GPL engine for the more 'refined' European tastes.

How's that?

Oh yeah, and they had NO idea about Legends - not even heard about it

Will it even be released over here ?

Homeworld is also suffering. I figure it's all about Havas (nee Sierra)
trying to move their sales as close to Xmas as possible to increase their
market share over that period. The problem is if they release now the games
will be off the "New Releases" section and into the mass of shelving before
the big rush comes so they hold back.

Apparently in the US that's not the case.

Who cares? Contact some dealer who ships small quantities over from the
US. That's what most people in Finland do.

Or do what I did. Ask a friend on vacation in the US to buy a copy.

(He actually bought a bunch of games for me. Threw away the boxes,
tore off all the shrink-wrap and shit, threw away all the silly
pamphlets and registration cards and poured everthing in the bottom of
his bag).

Sorry, but isn't Homeworld out? or am I playing something else here in the
UK.

It is now... last time I checked it was on delay for reasons unknown.

I should also add that inexplicable some stores are still saying it's
unreleased... most confusing.
