    I've been doing a bit of poking around but I can't seem to find any info about it coming the the Great British Isles.  
    Anyone have any idea if there will be a UK compatible release?

    Yeah I've been looking around and can't find a site with it anywhere.
     
    I'm assuming the PS3 edition will work, which is annoying as I planned to get it on the 360 ¬_¬

    @Dimpley: Well, there is going to be a PC release, so you can get that should you wish. I can't imagine the system specifications will be high enough to exclude you.

    For some reason I really can't see this game being released in the UK. Maybe they will just think it's to American in it's content for us to truly 'get' but it would be good to see it here.

    I ordered it a few days ago & it just arrived today. Funny as hell but many of the questions are next to impossible for non US residents to answer.  Import with caution!

    I'd still like to see it have a release here, even if it is very american. Some of us know a fair bit of american stuff, I wan't to be able to play with my yankee buddies. This is our kinda game.

    @HrMagni: I got it for PS3 from amazon.com with expedited shipping, it costed me a total of £33.80 and took around 8 days to arrive in the UK. 
     
    After having played 10 episodes or so I'm gonna guess that this won't be released here, a lot of the questions are centred around American tv shows or products that we don't get here. 
    I think for some previous releases they did localised versions so maybe they'll do something like that again. 
     
    I'm enjoying it though, I've already ordered a US psn points card so I can get the dlc.

    So am I correct in thinking that you can import a US PS3 copy to play on a UK/AUS/NZ PS3, but you won't be able to play a US X360 on a UK/AUS/NZ X360?

    I wish it would come out here, but I'd imagen that they don't think it would sell seeing as "You Don't Know Jack!" is not aired over here, but it seems really funny. If it dosn't soon I'll just import one.

    Also, these kinds of games can be hard if they don't localize the questions. There's a bunch of Buzz questions that makes no sense to me as I am Norwegian.

    Ok so I should now mention I imported this game from the US, marking my first PS3 import. It works fine, but I must say that this game is very American, lots of references to American TV and culture that it makes sense that this game wasn't released over here.
