Name 1 other. Seriously. Stuff comes out in one of two ways usually. Either it sweeps the globe east to west over a 24 hour period starting in new Zealand, or it releases simultaneously everywhere. I have no idea why they never rereleased The Simpsons Go Freemium in the UK, but it's a unique example afaik. I would guess its maybe a mistake or possibly they decided after rerelease to target only markets that spend a lot on IAP and like the Simpsons and maybe the UK didn't make the cut.

Jurassic park builder. I quite like the 'tapped out' game, I downloaded it before it got pulled from the app store on my iPod touch and played for a while, then I got my iPhone after it had been pulled and couldn't download it. Anyway it's back on the app store in the uk and has been for about 5 hours now.

Well excellent job illustrating it. You guys really do always get stuff last. I mean geez that's like 3 apps. While here in the US there are only like 650,000 that we got after you guys aready had them. You really do have it rough across the pond there.

So do you really want me to list every single title not available over here then?? Seriously I have better things to do then waste my time explaining myself to you, I wasn't looking for an arguement, I was clearly just asking a simple question! There is always one! Grow up!

Yes if you want to make such a grandiose statement, you'd better be able to back itup. The FACT is that you get way more games before the US than you get after. Therefore the title of this thread is ridiculous. If you want to start a new thread called "Why do a handful of crap freemium games come out later in the UK", that would be fine, though I'm not sure why you care. Most likely it's licensing issues since all of these are major properties (Simpsons, Jurassic Park, MTG) probably with different licensees in different regions.
