Volzagia Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 For a company with so much "British Pride" I can't believe that this is coming out later in the UK than the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pants Party Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 That has nothing to do with Lionhead. They are only the developer. The publisher (Microsoft) is an American company. They foot the bill to manufacture and market the product, so they get to choose when and where it gets released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamoamo Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 I think its funny how UK gets the "good" preorder weapon, while US gets the "bad" one. I guess its along the same lines of showing country biases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradgardener Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Yeah, Microsoft is an american company, not to mention america is probably the biggest market for a game to be released so they want to get it out there first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlevoHD Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 It's only a 3-day difference between America and Europe, so it's not really such a big deal (I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Montymort Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 All I have to say to this is...GROW UP...the game comes out in the US just three days before it comes out in the UK and if you pre-ordered it there is a chance you'll get it a day early anyway so thats just two days, if your that impatience that you can't wait just three days for the game, then I think you have bigger problems, try spending those three days outside trying something new instead of hiding away in your Mum's basement. Also I am sure if it was up to Lionhead they would release it in the UK first, but it's not it's up to Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylon Uxkid Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 The difference is just 3 days, also like Pants said, probably is not their fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linktriforce007 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 The difference is just 3 days, also like Pants said, probably is not their fault. Sigh, this old swan song. Dead Rising 2 - Britain gets early. Fable 3 - America gets early. Halo Reach - Same day. Each country gets first or second, or the same depending on the title. In other words; who cares? Wait the few days. It's not really a big deal. There's plenty of other games I'm sure we own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Allen86 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 It's only a 3-day difference between America and Europe, so it's not really such a big deal (I think) It may only be a 3 day wait to get Fable3 in the UK, but 3 days will seem like an eternity to some Fable lovers. I live in the US and cannot wait another month for this. This game will be....brilliant lol ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtr1gg3r Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Idk why ppl get so worked up over the 3 day wait =/ Its 3 days ffs! LOL Its only really FIFA coming out earlier this year that baffles me since its massive and literally religion in the UK but its only 3 days so who cares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireWarrior316 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Notice the topic creator hasn't posted anymore. I think he/she/it is trying to just start arguements on here about the US and UK. I live in the US. If I get the game the 26th then awesome but if I had to wait til the 29th its no big deal. I am a huge fable fan. I've played them all and I can officially say 3 days don't matter. just be glad you are getting the game and have the money for it.

Quarantane Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I still have to preorder this for my girlfriend. She loves the Fable series and I'm sure she could wait 3 days. I'm sure alot of people would like it sooner rather than later, but sometimes patience is required. I ordered the Halo: Reach xBox bundle over Amazon and had to wait 3 days for shipping, I didn't really care to much. In fact I didn't even play Reach until 2 days after I got it.

sweatdog Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 2 or 3 days one way or the other doesn't bother me, but I can understand the hardcore gamer who wants to be amongst the first in the world to 100% the game being annoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedFate Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Consider it the universe self-correcting. Turn 10 is an American company with an American publisher and the UK got Forza 3 three days before the States. Sometimes you get it first, sometimes you get it last. It's only 3 days, not several months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowflux Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't see the big deal. Def. not Lionhead's decision on the release date, I'm sure. As for the weapons... who cares? It's not like they're getting a new puppy where the US gets a flaming poop sack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlevoHD Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Okay everyone thinks it not a problem (and if you do you're an addict) so let's not talk about it anymore! It's just everyone saying the same stuff like everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade_pkr Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Hehe, what about those who are getting Fable 3 as a christmas present? they have to wait even longer. But seriously, three days isn't so bad. I'm sure this game will be well worth the wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klebo Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 wow it comes out 3 days earlier in the US than the UK pre-order it and it'll be 2 days after as I've done for the Limited Edition . I don't care if America get it first it won't change how good the game is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddriver Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Ok while I agree that 3 days isn't that bigger deal I still don't see why all games can't just be released at the same time it would make it a lot fairer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
