Weren't Konami's words for worldwide in this press release phrased like this: "America, Japan, Asia and Europe"? We aren't any of those things. Sorry but I won't believe it till they say Australia specifically because we have been the only country besides NZ left out of "Worldwide" multiple times before. :\ _________________

Are those all Konami published regions though? Because Atari publishes the game here  _________________

Well in terms of physical game disc, we are getting the exact same version as europe. And most delays are due to localising languages, so here's hoping...

I think it'll hit Oz then, however we'll only get 1000 copies for the entire country and no new shipments for a year or two.

I really, really don't think we'll get it on launch day. Didn't Atari already say we'd be getting it after the "worldwide" launch? Can't remember where I saw that but I'm sure it was here.
Won't believe this at all until I see the word Austral[as]ia mentioned by Atari or Konami.
As it stands now, I'm still importing until I see firm proof. Heck, I think everyone should import it anyway to send Atari a message that we're sick of their slackness (ie: Portable Ops, Subsistence, and that Legacy pack that we're not getting)

I recommend watching the story of the Metal Gear Solid game on youtube over the next few months, to get the back story.
Begin here.

Awesome news, I knew that Konami would deliver on it's promise of a worldwide release. About a month and a half earlier than I expected too which is great.
Looks like I'll have to pre-order that bundle sometime soon as well. _________________
