If you think November 9 is a long time to wait, spare a thought for us poor whinos living in PAL regions. I live in Australia and and When I preordered Deus Ex: Invisible War instead of getting to me in early december like the order site originally said, it took until MARCH to port it into PAL (due to the language translations or somithing). Unless it's stated otherwise it looks like I'll be lucky to get Halo 2 for Christmas.

hi i live in nyc, and are private sellers here, sell stuff when the get it, and usually ignore streetdates. which is illegal but kinda unstoppable in nyc. too big. so hopefully i will get it like 2 or 3 days before release. hoping. however i dont think you aussies need to worry. h2 will be the biggest ms release since windows 95 and you will get it the same times as we do in america so dont even worry about it

I think bungie are already converting halo 2 to a PAL version. Thats probably some of the reason why the changed the release date from april to november.

both NTSC and PAL versions are being made together. they will be released in europe and north america on 9th november i believe. although other countries havent been totally confirmed im guessing it will be basically the same day probably about less than a week max delay. this is just my opinion tho.

I'm more or less assured now, thanks. I just hope I'll be able to get Limited Edition, even if it means ordering it from europe.

dont worry about it buddy, go and pre order it at EB if ya havent already..

Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow was a word-wide release, and Halo 2 is too

(even though they havent confirmed in countries other than Europe and USA i think)

I beleive the reason they havent confirmed is because even though theyre trying to get it everywhere, they cant say they will, because it simply might not happen, so theyre probably gonna try to get it here by November 9th, but wont say so just incase they cant!

For PAL gamers in Europe, we actually get Halo 2 before any Americans, due to time difference. As, for me in England, if i go down to get the game at midnight, i will have it at least 6 hours before any American. LOL!

It gives me a few hours to practice before i probably get my butt kicked!

That seems to be a problem. No one outside the US seems like they'll be getting the Limited Edition. Spoken to all the main highstreet stores, no idea. Emailed the big mailorder companies...nope. Spoken directly to the main UK distributor, nope. We can pretty much say unless they decide to give the rest of us the chance to get them we won't be able to get the Limited Edition. Will tell you more in September though when we might get a few more answers at the Xbox stand at this years ECTS, should find out for sure then if we will be getting it or not...but so far its not looking good :(
