Trials and tribulations of living in a bilingual country...

Got the Limited Collector's Edition of Gears of War shipped in today, completing my GOW collector's edition trilogy.

Looked on the back:

Damn.

I like my games to be one uniform language, or at the very least for individual items to be bilingual.

Double damn.

Anyone else bothered by stuff like this?

Yep that's why I try not to buy CE's from Canada

Yes that does happen although I think it's more common in Canada with the French provinces than here in the US

Its almost always like that and biligual manuals as well. I think it has to do with some law in Canada about stuff being in french and English. I think its also why some stuff in the usa is just in french/english because they do not want to make a separate copy for Canada. The state i live in for years has been trying to get it passed that ever thing here has to be the same way for everything being English/Spanish.

I have an ac2 master assassin in French

Should really get one in English but men

Same here -- it bugs the hell out of me! I searched forever to find that ACII Master Edition that lowly just mentioned without French on it, and the Gears that you posted up as well.

Multi-lingual doesn't really bother me yet; except not being able to read most of it. But I'll take whatever I can get.
