The most Frequently Asked Question

Could somebody please tell me when to expect EU in my nice neighbourhood store (or german owned MediaMarkt here in Rotterdam) ? And if it will be in German, Dutch or English (<---English PLAESE btw) ?

Many Thanks,

Marcus

I'll just join in by making this question
asked more frequently; I'm interested in
when EU will be available in the Netherlands
as well. I also have a preference for the
English version.

well lets see, the swedish version will be out december 1, 2000. the english version will be out february 15, 2001, and i am not sure about the dutch version, probably summer 2001. the german version is out already, you can order it from a number of places including games 24 and blackstar. i think it should be appearing in stores shortly....

Sure, I've actually been following this forum for the last few weeks, just not posting at all. While I'm aware of the German version and the approximate release dates of the Swedish and English version, I hadn't seen anything about a Dutch version yet. What makes you think it'll be summer 2001? Is there a post on this somewhere?

What makes me hopeful for an earlier release date is that the German publisher will also be the publisher in the Benelux. If a translation to Dutch and French must happen first, I can imagine the translation taking some time, but even then the German translation seems to have happened quite quickly. If the release will be in English (as many games over here), then I hope even more it can be sooner than next summer! If that's the case I'll order the English version.
