O.P. Undecided  New Games etc. UK
I have got MSN Messenger 6.2 and have been submitting little replies about this - but I am getting no answer :S

Is this because nobody knows?

I have got NO new games / emoticons in the UK, and the only new things i can see are the webcam change, emoticons as type, and change of Launch Site to Fun and Games, with different icon.

Any help?
Sorry if this has been asked before - just the search limits to 4 chars minimum - hard to search for 6.2 - you have to search for games and then there are loads of results

Extra note: Audio now works between UK and Canada in 6.2 unlike 6.1.

It's not that M$ forgot Europe...it's more that they don't care :P Generally they do leave you ppl out...sry to say. Can you play if someone from, say, North American requests it?

It doesnt matter where u dl it from..its al tied to wich country ur from that u put into ur profile/.NET passport

So in order to get those games u either change the country in ur profile/.NET passport or get the gamespatch at http://mess.be/
(i personally prefer the second option)

If I recall correctly, your question was answered a time ago. If not, then this question has certainly been answered not so long ago... search the forums ;)

In short, it has nothing todo with your version or your language. It has to do with the setting of your geographical location in your .NET Passport settings; Not all games are available for every geographical location... So if you wanna have all the games, then you must set your geographical location to the appropiate location. This has no effect on other things (except, if you forgot your password, you need to fill in your geographical location, and of course, you need to fill in the one you set it to).
