why dont we just answer the question !! BACK TO TOPIC: yes i suppose 2-3 months after the NA

I dont think so 2-3 months seems unlikly. I think that April/May is a bit to soon, I haven't seen anything that hints that early, especially since you need to factor in the time it takes for them to convert all the games into pal (thas about more then 3mil games at least), then package it into its case, set the cases up with manuals, put coverage (tape, plastic) over the case. And then finally package it all into boxes and Ship to Uk factories so that they can all go disturbute them to local porpriters. Its gonna be longer then April/May, also they probably will start this process after waiting 2-3 weeks after US sales have started. That way they can see A. how many sales were there were, and B. using that number using a ratio of past US to UK sales, they will know roughly how many games they need to convert and Ship (my guess is at least more then 3mil). If you really dont want to wait and want it in March then do this

Well I'm not sure on this one but i do believe some sites are offering preorder for the Uk version and it will come to the Uk in August, not sure about that though. However, the reason they need all that time, is because they need to convert the game from the NTSC signal, to the PAL signal (because only the US and Japan have NTSC signal tvs). Infact this can be done in about 30min (for the factories it's probably alot less) per game disc. However they probably have a couple of million discs to convert so it would take awhile, but, if you live in the UK or anywhere else where you have a PAL tv and PAL playstation 2. Heres what you can do to get your Kingdom Hearts game in March. 1. Buy the US Kingdom Hearts 2 (NTSC format) next buy the Magic Slide kit, a great program made to load your backups (it's important to make back ups so that you can play them instead and have your orignal game unsctrached so that in your later years the game is worth ALOT). Once you have purchased those two items (50 bucks for KH2 and 30 bucks for Magic Slide kit so 80 bucks in all {remember though, you can use Magic Slide Kit to back up all your games and have your orignal in MINT condition so that when you are old you can sell for a big payoff, note: when you do sell the game you must get rid of the backup}). Go to google and type in, "Backup Ps2 games" you should find some excellent tutorials on how to backup the PS2 game. Once you have a backup put the orignal game into its box and leave it there for the rest of your life letting it gain economical value. Now then once it is aside, Go to google and type in "Convert NTSC to PAL" you should find some excellent tutorials on converting the NTSC signal into the PAL signal. Once you have converted your game, boot it up with Magic Slide, and enjoy! Also if you want to import the US kh2, go to Ebay, people will offer free shipping but charge you about 50-55 dollars for the product. Once you have all the materials the process of making the backup and converting NTSC to PAL should take anywhere between 1.5hrs-4hrs. (note: if you live in the US and you wish to sell your games do not keep the backup as that is not entirely legal, play safe and be smart, and most importantly have fun!)

The October Release Date thing isnt confirmed yet, it is just a rumor, so dont worry about this, and sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but a this thread will be closed because it is a release date thread.

Look, Belgium is the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg)

The Benelux are always one of the first countries that get movies/games/magazines/music in Europe. We get it the same date as UK.

Other countries like Portugal and Spain get it a few day later.

But it's ALWAYS around the same date. So if UK gets it in August, Benelux will get in in August.

Etc.
