This game was released on Friday but withdrawn from sale the same day because 2% of the UK launch quantity had the American language version on disc. No big deal you might think but in the American version the word 'Spastic' makes an appearance on one of the party boards. Obviously that's seen as an insult over here and apparently not across the pond!

I also read this is the second case of a game being withdrawn from the shelves because of this word within a few weeks - some puzzle type game for the psp also had to be recalled recently for the same problem. It makes me laugh how this can not only get by testing, but also by whoever applies the PEGI age rating on these titles. :lol:
