Perhaps the Doc has hears about this one...

As of today, in Quebec. Retailers can no longer sell video games that don\'t have a french description on the box...

Well, I can say bye-bye to Resident Evil 4...:cry:

That\'s stupid! I\'ve heard ones that were even more stupid, but this is far up there.

[font=comic sans ms]Dude, that TOTALLY sucks....

Well, that\'s only in Quebec, right? So, I say, get in the car and drive to another country. Maybe you can visit Mass. down here, no? X3

But in all honesty, I think that that idea they are....formulating, so to speak....is quite silly. But of course, you can see where they\'re coming from, yes? I do hope so, or else all is lost in the world. >>;[/font]


Reality swirled in a wholly blue manner, revealing absolutely nothing of merit. Things flashed madly in and out of existence like some entirely other sort of phenomena. On a whim, Kurt Vonnegut imploded, taking a sizeable hunk of Massachusetts with him. However, seeing as Massachusetts wasn't entirely sure it existed, the chunk wasn't all that big.

I heard about that last week... Yes, it sucks. If the reports are correct, about 33% of all games won\'t be available anymore. You know, since the Quebec market is small compared to the whole of North America, how much would you bet that the affected companies won\'t bother with our market?

At least, the first party Nintendo games have been bilingual for forever, so I know those are safe. I\'m not sure about the others, though. I guess I\'ll be doing more online shopping for games :P

Sheesh. Bummer.

Maybe you can find what you want on Ebay. Or you could move.

If you\'re up to being conned, you could buy illegally imported games. That\'s never a very good idea though. I wouldn\'t put too much thought into it.

you think that\'s stupid? In Indiana, there\'s a law that says you can\'t take baths between certain months, but showers are OK. Or was it the other way around? Anyway\'s no one cares about that law.

You know I\'d never buy bootleg. I\'m WAY too goody-goody to ever consider breaking the law.

Still, I know some who would gladly do it.
