That's just *****ed up in the head what was the point in advertising it in the first place if it's not out till 2009. What a waste of time waiting for it now.

ps3 games are universal. what's the big deal?

import it if you can't wait. it's the same game, just a different rating logo.



perhaps there may be online technicalities, but i doubt it.

isn't one of the marketing ploys for online gaming - the ability to play with gamers from all over the world?



i don't even know what online modes this game will have.

online racing's never really appealed to me anyway.

But it sucks to be you. At least the North American version isn't too far behind the Japanese version.

» My theory.

Since many international games always wind up in NA before they do in the EU, that possibly means we (North Americans) will see it sometime this year.



Well, the EU guys shouldn't have it too bad, as long as they get TF5 Prologue sometime this year.
