me the same, ive been playing since SWG came out in the UK and now this is crap! every thursday it just goes back a week. ive complained to SOE and they said some crap about shipping the game but what kind a excuse is this? its their game if they want people to buy it make sure it comes out!

the talk from SOE about problems shipping the game is BS, i talked to my local HMV and they tell me they have factory crates of the stuff waiting to be put on the shelf, but theyve been told by the distributor (is it activision?) to put back the release date. ridiculous 
i'm far to annoyed to say anything else. just accept that my JTL experience will inevitably lead me to make my jedi of the dark side

i really hate SOE for doing this.
those money grubbing swinesput offJTL for some PS2 rubbish.
i dont even have a PS2, my PC would blow a PS2 away onbenchmarks.

this rests my case of the reason its put back...
was in gamestation today in scotland, talking to the manager, from what they know, Activision is under orders from Sony to hold back the release!
ah who cares....
guys, you either import it, or you cancel your subscription. either way.
i got it monday. Only got 2 hours playing in it, will be online all night Friday catching up!

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GTA not selling as well as they wanted....
where did you get your facts??
GTA made £24 million pounds in the first weekend.
The delay of JTLS in the UK has nothing to do with Sony,SOE, or Lucasarts. its activision plain and simple.
if you were running sony would you hold back 1 game to make money from it or would you release them all at the same time and make an absolute killing??
killing it is.

I think SOE should compensate ALL euro members with a free month over this fiasco.
We where talking about JTL for years there is no excuse for them to not be prepared now.
They should of held back the U.S. launch to have Euro at the same time.

oh and the conspiracy theories start 
but considering that some online stores arejust selling customers the CD keys does at the very least show there issomedeliberate reason for the delay,but as Facehsaid, I've just stoppedcaring anymore, I'll just go spend my hard earned money on Halo 2which is released on the 12th. and duke it out over XBL...

It was most prob held back due to San Andreas. But to be honest Activision most prob don't give a damn because they are more interested in their own games as opposed tobeing a hub (which in all honesty they are) in Britian
