I don't understand what's going on here. according to all the websites in the UK, FSX came out on the 13th of october! I don't understand why you all think it comes out on the 27th! On pc world's (UK) website fsx is out now! on game's (uk) website it is also out now!
Dose it come out later in the US or something?

I am sure a few chaps from the USA would disagree with you there.

Many of them were able to buy it days before its official release date as some stores had it on shelves. The official date over there was October 13th I think?

Official date over here was 17th October I think although play.com and other similar online retailers were able to deliver by the 13th.

So, USA just pipped us to FSX.......only just though.

Nope, UK gaming retailers only sell new releases from major suppliers on a Friday, tomorrow battlefield 2142 is coming out, last week it was FSX.

In fact, here are the sites for Amazon UK (13th October)and USA (17th), scroll down for the release dates:

FSX was released on the 13th October 2006 in the UK

If you had read other posts you would have known this and you would also have known when the US was getting it.

I'm not even a member yet and i'm already fed up with the useless topics that keep on being created.
Theres a search link at the top, use it.
