Shipping & Handling for Europe $42.95 (not including the actual cost of the game), and you only get the choice of FedEx as far as shipping goes?

That's a bit stiff, mates.

I know that there is a european distributor for matrix games (JustPlayNow), but still, if you're offering the game worldwide, you might at least offer some more acceptable form of shipment. 43 bucks for shipping a game box of less than 2 pounds weight is definitely overpriced.

Why not call and order offline. There may be alternatives not shown on the e-store. Just play now does offer the game and at a good price too. At least thats the way it looked to me.

Yes that is true and the shipping will be quite normal since it will ship from the UK(?). I used Duchet.com and the game costs something like 23£ + 3£ shipping (registered mail....more expensive but safer) All I have to do now is wait for Just Play to make them and ship them which I believe means a few weeks later than the US release by Matrix

I already have preordered through JustPlayNow. But I would have preferred to get it as soon as possible and not have to wait another 2-3 weeks.

Ah well. As they say, anticipation never kills, it just maims.

Silvermane,

According to Duchet.com Just Play has told them to expect the game at August 13th in the UK so the wait will not be so long!! IF that date holds it only means two weeks....surely you will not be maimed by that;)

[David Heath]

We work very close with Just Play so our Euro fans do not have to wait long.

Postage for Australia in also more than the game price. Will there be an option to purchase an electronic download only? Paying postage for a boxed copy just doesn't seem worthwhile.

[Marc von Martial]

No, there will be no download option.

JustPlay also has the exclusive publishing rights for Australia and New Zealand, so you´ll have to contact them regarding this.

We are working on something right now to get the games onto the shelves at EB here in Australia.

When I have more info on this I will let you all know.

This Australian supplier site is claiming to have it in stock now.

I've never dealt with them b4, but giving them a try as they are the only local site I've seen so far with it in stock/listed. Cheaper than the import from US option.

I have bought from them in the past they are good to deal with. No walk in store. Just online.

I preordered a copy from Amazon.com last May. It got here today finally. So they officially have it too. Possibly in other countries as well but I did not look. Total cost plus shipping was only $34.95 so those that have held off buying it should grab it.
