Seriously, I'm pretty sick of all the European game publishers that release games and then screw the US over with any patches/expansions/etc. I'm looking at you, Ascaron.
So what's the excuse for this one?
You are sick of the european game publishers that screw the US ? i'm not realy following your idea.
Do you realy think that a publisher or developer would logicaly skip selling their products to a market that is worth millions, just to screw the americans because... they dont like americans?
Like Lar_q said, the american market is cautiously waiting for sales figures on Europe to check if they can make a profit. It seems its the other way round, the american publishers are trying to screw the european developers. Go figure.
