Huh, how about Brazil? We sometimes don't even get it, that's why I've only bought pirate copies, and I don't recomend you to do that, it's horrible, sometimes it affects the PS2 reader, and in Spyro YotD I couldn't even beat the game because in middle of the last boss my savedgame gets corrupted, and it's too much slowdowns and more bad stuff

japan gets a lot of things before everyone else does???? where did u hear that? I heard the opposite...japan gets things the last. for example: americans got the ANB in oct,europe got it in nov,but japan in december...and the first game,for ps1,spyro the dragon...japan got it last...and all other SPYRO games...I know it,I red the release date on this page...of every game here...every spyro game

whell to be honest not every single game...
