Hopefully it'll come out in Australia.
Que rejoicing.
@James Don't you mean Bit . Trip?
Excellent! I've been looking forward to confirmation of a PAL release.
I'll be grabbing Complete as soon as I can!
Great news!
Damn it! Now I have to choose between one of those two versions...
Great indeed. Especially that they're including the soundtrack CD with COMPLETE.
Yay! Great News!
Yes, yes, yes ! Really can't wait .
This is great news, I'll pick up COMPLETE at some point.
BIT.TRIP SAGA for me!
[/twilight sparkle yesyesyesyesyes]
Will buy ! I love Rising Star Games ^^
Anyone trying to decide between Saga and Complete need to know that the Saga version of Runner has lots of slow down. It isn't a deal breaker, but you should really make an informed decision.
Finally! I was starting to get worried. My choice is COMPLETE (heh, I don't have a 3DS yet, so it's kind of obvious. However, I would've chosen COMPLETE in any case).
i feel kinda compelled to buy this, even though i've downloaded them all off WiiWare already.
Excellent news, very much looking forward to pre-ordering this! Shame I bought the first few albums in iTunes, but at least I'll have the CD for the rest.
Next year? Oh, I am okay with that! I have enough other games to attend to!
Rising Star are one of the best publishers in Europe, great news!
