Recently there have been a few games that have had a US release but no plans for distribution in the UK (and vice versa). This really sucks as many of us, including myself, have to spend hours, even days, trying to get hold of games.

I have spoken directly to game publishers who have either blank ignored requests for a UK release and even refused to ship to the UK. The same goes from Amazon and the other on-line stores who have to work within the distribution guidelines of the publishers.

How far have you gone to get hold of a game that publishers refuse to release in your country? Should they start listening to the players more or at least allowing to ship to other countries?
