I don't blame them. I had the same experience in Australia. They always asked if I was Canadian because if they asked if I was American and wasn't I might be offended. So thoughtful. They think we are arrogant, but most Americans are just kind of oblivious to other cultures. I said to a server," Where is the cream for the coffee?" And she said: WE CALL IT MILK IN AUSTRALIA! As if to say, learn our ways American jerk. Anyway, I still loved it. New Zealanders are super nice.

This isn't new. There have ALWAYS been ugly Americans. I go overseas and listen to others of my countrymen bitching about how UNLIKE home it is...well, duh! Why did yoy leave home? Drives me nuts to see McDonalds everywhere, with lines of tourists inside.I visited Italy last year and tried to learn at least enough of the language and culture to get around for a couple of weeks. Going to Spain, Portugal and France this year and plan to do the same.

My most coveted superpower would be to speak and understand every language that has ever existed.

I hope they have hawt tourist in string bikinis to tap, just like Brazil beechs do

We own baseball. Checkmate.

Given the huge success this event is, I would think EA would do this again in the future. So be patient, they'll get to your countries.

As an Australian, I certainly don't want to see anything related to the Australian episode ever again. I hated it, and I haven't met an Australian Simpsons fan who didn't (although, mind you, I don't get out much).
The accent was an alarming mangled Cockney, the 'outback' was green when actually it's red and the toilet was wrong. We don't have those toilets that are half full of water here. Our toilets have a much smaller amount of water in them and it doesn't swirl in either direction. It rolls over from back to front with the flush.
The joke about the publican not selling anything other than beer was a bit funny, as was the 'knifey - spoony' gag. Otherwise, the episode was kind of ignorant, patronising and a bit insulting whilst lacking the bite of genuine satire.

Well, that's a surprise. What comes out as "****" was intended to be the accent of the East End of London. I guess it has been censored because the first syllable is a colloquialism for the male member.

I'm an American and they all sound different to me, but then again my mom is West Indian, and I recognize the subtle differences in those island accents as well. Yet, every person on tv and in the movies, no matter what island they are supposed to be from, has a Jamaican accent. And is invariably of African descent, when a large number of people living in the islands are of other ethnicities.

Animal House reference : D

I live in WA state, and I live about an hour and 40 minutes from the Canada Border. I could go there anytime I want with my enhanced License.

As for a part 2 of around the world? I agree there should be a part 2 after act 3....but I got a sick feeling there won't be. But I don't see why not....this time of year the game usually doesn't have too much going on.

When they've done a part two of any event (i.e. Superheroes) it has never followed immediately on act 1. It happens about a year later. I'm not sure I'd want to play another event of this length immediately following the first.

I wouldn't either. lol....all they'd have to do is make it a small one. Or just some tiny story and just give us more items....I certainly don't need several acts just to get items. I'd be okay with them just having something small that gives us them. No crafting involved or anything like that.
