New Dezember free games

Why does google make the new december stadia games in Germany only accessible at 6 PM o'clock, the day is almost over again. This is really very weak from google. Who else thinks that the games should be published in germany at 9am o'clock too and not at 6pm o'clock in the evening? IT's a hole free day we could play those new free games, but this "oh we release it at 9am pst and Countries with different time zones have had bad luck" just sucks imo.

Because that is 9am in California, where Google is based and for fairness and simplicity they have to release stuff at the same time to all. Spare a thought for people in Australasia who are usually asleep!

That's why you should make the release at 00:00 pst, so the Australians could still enjoy the new free games on their day off.

A Free game is a free game whether it's released 6 hours later.... I'm just happy to not to have to buy Farming Simulator, my kids really want that game

I'm stoked they did it on the first, vs random day during the first week of the month, like PS Plus. : )

PS Plus is the first wednesday of the month right? 

I do agree with the post though, I've never had to wait for PS Plus games to be released at a certain time (to my knowledge). Yet it's a very minor inconvinience and nothing else.

@Bakken - is that what it is for PS Plus!?  Thought it was just random first week, ha...  Localized same time would probably be too messy to pull off.  Then you'd want sales to work w the same logic, etc.  One time for all!  Ha...  I personally like midnight PST, but I'll live with 9am PST, lol.

This is a thing for YEARS on PlayStation. Games get released on the American time zone. A 6 hour difference is something we can all live with. If 6 hours is really that important, then my friend, you need an extra hobby.
