So.. I just read a swedish press release by Microsoft where they are saying that Xbox will not be released in Sweden until ASAP under 2014.

It was supposed to be released in 21 countries here in Europe under the fall/winter but now we have to wait a little longer here in Sweden.

Instead, 13 countries is going to get the console on release day and the rest, 8 countries which are Belgium,Denmark,Finland,Netherlands,Norway,Sweden,Russia,Sweden and Switzerland is going to get the Xbox One under 2014.

I wonder how many people is gonna buy the PS4 now instead because they will not wait until 2014...

sounds like you are getting some of the aussie treatment mate. Sucks. We did not get the Xbox 360 until near over 12 months after it was launched in every other country.. I ended up importing one.

This time round however, we are lucky enough to be included in the launch. Were you planning on buying one at launch?

Actually I'm not gonna pick it up on day one. I wanna see hwat people have to say about the new consoles first but I'm sure they will turn out great. Hopefully they drop in price a bit also after awhile because I don't wanna spend so much money on a console at the moment

But from what I hear from most of people here in Sweden they are disapointed with the Xbox one with so many changes and not staying on the same lane so instead buying a PS4.

I believe alot of people is gonna buy the PS4 because it's released in 2013 here in Sweden. But I wonder how many is gonna stick around to get the Xbox one. We'll see...

you can bet it is all determined by pre-order sales.. The Xbox 360 had low pre-orders in Australia when they announced it. PlayStation was always a favorite in Australia but now everyone has moved to Xbox instead.. (well the smart ones).. Ever since everyone lost their PSN logins and had no online gaming for months they had to move. I guess most never went back.

It must be a similar story in your country. Sounds like pre-orders are low.. Shame, if it came out same time i know you would have gotten one.. you just cant resist! lol

Cool

Aren't you luck you don't want one straight away. it will probably work out perfect and you'll get one in 2014. We had to wait 6-8 months for the Xbox 360. I do remember that
