Title: need help finding the game
Post by: ozziesailor on December 27, 2007, 10:06:37: is there anyone in australia on this forum?

if there is can some tell me where i can buy this game from a retail shop in aus?

and no i cant d/l it cause i dont have a credit card to buy from the site, thats why im asking for help to know if there is any retailer selling it.

ive tryed EB games and games in a couple of places in sydney but they have never heard of it? juz want to know if anyone else has any luck

Post by: saltydog on December 29, 2007, 13:24:17: I guess ShipSim isn't "economicly viable" for most stores in Oz, so they don't order it.. ;)
Another possibility is they're just plain foolish.. :D
