Nope ur euopean xbox(pal version) will not handle the american version. Unless u chip it, and then u will disable live.
I think its 19th nov for Europe but im not shure.

you cannot play u.s gakes on a european X-box because europe uses PAL and america uses NTSC so they are not compatable. if you chip your european xbox or get some sort of converter you can play U.S games on it but you won't be able to play on X-Box LIVE (at least with halo 2).
i think the release date is almost a simutanous release worldwide, though this isn't confirmed 100% so give about 2 weeks after november 9th and halo 2 should be available within your shores so in my opinion its worth the wait
(dam you beat me to it brute guy)

Yes, in Bungie´s FAQ´s they say it will be releases at Nov 9th. in USA and Europe! (I don´t know whats up to Australia, Japan and the other countries??)
Ok, I live in Cologne (Germany) and we got 6hours earlier than the East Coast in US. BUT our stores have Opening Times (it´s a Law!!) from 8am to max. 8pm.
So, in US you can go shopping round the clock, isn´t it? So, maybe your Console-Games Store starts selling Halo2 at 12:01am where we have about 2 hours to wait!!?? So, YOU are first! (if you live at the East Coast!) Damn!!

hate us all for what?

If bungie are good producers,(which they are) they will release it VERY worldwide....
As Splinter Cell did, the game came out the very same day in australia as it did in america...

Bungie are probably intending it to have a worldwide everywhere, but doesnt want to let anyone down, so they arent saying they will (just incase they cant ya know)
