UK E-tailers don't seem to think the game's out for another month and a half

Hello!

Although i'm a pre-order customer from Stardock anyway, i'm a little concerned. Several e-tailers in the UK seem to either not have a date set for Demigod or it's set as May 31st. With the lack of supply in the UK, couldn't this be alot worse than the early availability from Gamestop?

 

Amazon.co.uk

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Atari-Demigod-PC/dp/B001P3099S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1239595023&sr=1-1

Also seems to think it's by Atari under 'by' and in the URL. ;s

 

Game.co.uk (The UK's biggest game retailer)

http://www.game.co.uk/PC/RolePlaying/~r339494/Demigod/?s=Demigod

No date set at all (and I usually pre-order from these guys for delivery on the day)

Also says Atari are the publishers. ;s

 

Play.com

http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/8297120/Demigod/Product.html

29th May is date set

 

Gamestation

http://gamestation.co.uk/CoolStuff/Unknown/~r415385/Demigod/

No date set, no picture, no description, not even listed as a video game.

 

Those are the big game etailers/retailers in the UK and Demigod seems to be missing completely. Google returns similar results

 

ShopTo.net

29th May

Gameplay.co.uk

No sign of Demigod what so ever.

 

 

 

Wikipedia says Atari are your distributors for the EU, are they the ones at fault here? Because it seems like its completely absent in the UK.

you could probably get a copy from ebay.com sooner then from a UK retailer if their all coming out next month on the 31st. Amazon.com might also ship to the UK (im not sure if they do) but ive ordered from Amazon.co.uk before and I live in the USA so I dont see why Amazon.com wouldnt do the same for UK customers.

I pre-ordered from Stardock anyway, so I should be getting at least the digital copy tommorow and the retail copy.. whenever.

What I am concerned is how this lack of distribution in the UK is going to affect Stardock's sales here.

It's the same everywhere that isn't America.  Atari is handling sales outside North America, and as a result there is a 1 and a half month delay before we can get the game.  You can circumvent this by buying directly from Stardock who will ship out the North American version of the game as soon as they see your money.
