If you live in Europe and loved the look of that amazing Fallout 3 Survival Edition, you better keep your hopes way down -- we ain't getting it.
And nor are you, Canada.
You won't even be able to have it shipped over to you by Amazon, either. Our very own non-American Destructoid community members have looked into the option, only to have it confirmed that the Survival Edition won't be shipped outside of the US. If you want this limited edition (and it's one of the first limited editions to truly be worth getting) then two options are open to you:
A) Get a US friend to purchase and ship it to you.
B) Cry while self-harming.
Hopefully this situation changes in some way, shape or form because there are a lot of Fallout fans in the world, not to mention series newcomers who just want a really, really awesome lunch box. Still, it isn't as if we're not used to this by now.
Jim Sterling serves as reviews editor for Destructoid.com, head of the Podtoid podcast, and produces a number of news stories, original features, one-of-a-kind videos.

FUCK
Well spank my ass and call me a sailor...
sigh
Sailor.
And your avatar still makes me double take every time I see it.
I laugh at your misfortune
*cuddles pip-boy*
Its the answer to everything!
At least, I won't be getting it until I get my 360.
If you are Sterling or Atheistium then I will offer payments in the form of hugs.
*goes back to supper*
That could've been funny if only said it better. You ruined an ace punchline.
Oh, the bitching that the next Podcastle will contain.
...FUCK YEAH!
Living in Australia, I'm grateful for every game that actually get's released here, collector's edition or not.
Can vaguely understand about the Frencies, Germmies and Spanishies (and the other - strange language folks) but why oh why do the English and Australians get it... Thats right, because America broke our nice language (yes I know we broke many others but we had cake and flags - obscure references ftw) and want their Americanlish the defacto standard... Bastardos...
So, do we begin setting up a trading post for games now?
Wanted - Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout3 SE - Becuase the American version all have kids in (well, the first two do, 3rd on just want the lunch box)
After downloading (somewhat illegally) Fallout one and two to get in the mood for the game I was really looking forward to the complete package for what will be the next BIG game.
Sure we dont get The PipBoy but hey its just an Alarm clock and we still get the special edition with the lunchbox and other stuff right?> I can see it on Amazon UK...
Why do americans get all the fun? :(
Granted, I'm American and don't need to care, but REALLY? Only America? Why?
*remembers that he might be moving to England sometime in the next year or two*
GRUMBLEGRUMBLEGRUMBLEGRUMBLE
@Reaprar: I think most Americans know that the movie is MEANT to be a parody of the way our war-mongering country functions. Those that don't are fucking retarded and likely come from the Bible belt. Embrace the suck!
I'm sorry, but we are not able to ship Video Games items to Canada. At this time, due to warranty restrictions and import/export laws, we can ship only books, music, videos, and DVDs to most destinations outside the U.S. We can also ship some software, tools, jewelry, sporting goods, shoes, consumer electronics and kitchen items to some destinations via Priority shipping only; these items are listed at http://www.amazonglobal.com/ Please understand that this policy is based on warranty issues, manufacturer restrictions, and Federal law, and as such, cannot be amended at the discretion of our Customer Service department.
on the plus side, i won't be paying bethesda a penny for this game now.
