I know FIFA 08 wasn't "locked to a region" for online multiplayer (unlike COD4 for example).

I'm hoping Euro2008 won't be like that.

I'm still not over the fact why we're being charged $99 for the game. US gets it considerably lower ... or is it because the game won't be very popular over there? I wonder how much they'll sell the game in the UK and the other European countries ...

I dont think they would make it locked for multi-player..there would be no reason for them to do it, i wouldnt think. I would assume the soccer games would sell in the US but the fact its a european based competition may deter the Yanks from buying it but i wouldnt think that would justify the difference in prices between regions!!
Im just gonna use one of my 20% off coupons for EB and pick it up for $80 so im just holding out for Thursday now

EDIT: For those of you who would like a little more info of what the features are of this game, read this and im sure you wont be disappointed...well i know i wont be

Man, I have no clue. They don't even have the game listed on their website!!

But if JB is offering $99 ... maybe EB'll sell it for $119.95 =/

Well I got it through referring a friend (myself again) but I never got the one for signing up strange!

You only get a week to use it too, which is lucky seeing euro comes out on Wed/Thurs! But Euro for $85 I can just live with!

Euro was released today, got the call from EB games but the pares didn't have time to go and get it for me grrrrrrrrrr!

I'm not sure whether to do the game with Portugal (mainly for Ronaldo not even sure who else they'd have) or England....

Believe the game has a feature similar to Tiger Woods where you can map your face onto a custom player and it has over a thousand surnames so that commentators can call you in the game. Think I'm safe I have a pretty common last name!

Portugal for sure. Quaresma on one wing, Ronaldo on the other - unstoppable!

I would love to play as France, England, Spain or Portugal.
Game's coming out tomorrow, hey?

Is EB Games guaranteeing they're selling it tomorrow? Still no information on their website.
I might go and print out that 15% off voucher now
