    Default Game&Hardware imports delayed due to Ash Cloud

    What the volcanic ash cloud means for local gamers

    Flight delays lead to games and hardware missing release dates

    Guess for most games I will be using digital distribution till this settles. No volcano stops steam... Can't solve the hardware issue unfortuantly.

    Wanna know something really scary about this issue? Back in 1821 the same volcano did the same thing, but it lasted for 14 months. So if history repeats itself, it's going to be a very quiet World Cup LOL

    Possibly 14 months. lol. Sorry dude. You can imagine how peeved I am about my monitor being delayed even further. It will probably arrive in time for Christmas, so there's that sorted at least.

    I think single and small orders tend to come by airfreight for the most part - online retailers like Take 2 and Loot etc, don't always carry stock of some of the products in their catalogue, and the orders are forwarded as you place them.

    Hopefully this doesn't affect anything coming from the US.
