You mean are they still making the original new because wouldn't there still be used copies no matter what in stores? I mean in the US it might still be sold as a greatest hit, but I cannot remember seeing it new recently.

Just curious do you not like buying used games or are they not as easy to find in Australia.


I will buy online before I buy used tbh, I dont like even buying games if they dont have fancy wrappers... Dunno, I think I have a mild case of... that thing. On tv volume if its not divisible by 5 i freak out hahaha.

Used games are fairly easy to find in Australia, its just I dont like em. We have EB in aus for example. 

Do not worry I think everyone on VGC is a little crazy!!! Makes it more fun!!!

I also watched American Idol and loved it, I love Pia Toscano a babe that sings like an angel.

And I doubt you will find it new. Peace, time to drink Saint Patties day is here!!!

yeah not my choice hahaha, the covers are alright but some of these guys even in the finals are seriously freaking grating. You gotta love fox sometimes (Foxtel is Australias main pay tv provider, owned presumably by news corp)

I dont think its fair with Pia by the fact that she worked on the show previously I dunno, she better not get saved. I like Casey, The guy with easily the best voice (the guy that sing voice of an angel <- I think its called that) and paul (the guy that sang rod stewart) I am watching the episode where they are choosing the final 12 so some may be evicted the next week

while this is off topic, who guesses that SE will continue to have the FF14 servers down for months on end riding this situation because that is what burning there money other than the huge mmo debt they have. 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

As far as I can tell, it was delayed in the UK, NZ and Japan.... for some reason. It doesn't make sense, a much more positive thing to do would be to give a percent of the game sales to Earthquake relief funds, but why delay it in the UK?

50% is owned by Telstra 

no wonder its cost far too much for the crap they give you and always pull telstra moves in screwing old customers by offering new customers cheaper and better services like i had to ring up an demand by internet cost be slashed by 20 dollars and gb cap upped by 25 gb when they started selling 50gb for 69 dollars i was paying 89 dollars.

Ooooh that explains NZ as well then but yeah UK doesnt make a lot of sense, is it just UK or whole of Europe?

It might be Europe, but I am not entirely sure

http://www.gamepron.com/news/2011/03/16/motorstorm-apocalypse-au-release-slowed/

its not and the Australian released has apparently been stopped, they are gonna stop sending shipments, also taking away any existing advertising. Apparently (according to wiki, but I think there was a source) the link between UK and disasters is the link between NZ. Hence why ours is getting pulled as well. 

In relation to donating the funds, yes and no, yes it would have been good in theory but for the word apocalypse to be banded about when there seems to be an earthquake every 2-3 days atm and another predicted in the next 36-48 hours for nz and apparently one for US coming this is in everybodies head. 

You dont think about this until you think of "apolocalypse" and "2012" its screwing with peoples heads imo.

Edit: apparently Europe isnt affected
