Australian sales of silent hunter 5

[THE_MASK]

I remember when SH4 was released in australia i went to a lot of shops in brisbane and eventually tracked down a copy . Unfortunately the teenages will never buy it because its xbox city here . Obviously the more sales of SH5 the more chance of SH6 . What we need is a top product from the start .

Same thing here in the States. I have to go to Best Buy or Wal-Mart to find the PC games anymore. All the "video game" stores carry a wide variety of console games with maybe a single section of a single shelf devoted to PC games. :down:

So what they need is an exceptional bug free game outa the box with good media and it will sell itself .

Ah... fond memories of when I bought SH4... A niche retailer here was still in the buisness of selling PC games, tucked away on a discreete shelf. Hidden behind the plethora of consoles games and their broad array of hardware gizmoes.

I felt as if a perv ducking through the beaded curtin to oogle the tawdry offerings. Segragated somehow from the mainstream.

Uhhhh... anyhow long live PC games ! :salute:

i got it at a small gamestop in the mall here. i havent bought at best buy in a while but i know they have as much shelf space for pc games as they do for each console.

yep Best buy would probably be your best choice.. Gamestop would probably not carry a game like sh5...:yep:

(just check best buys site when the time comes.)

The BestBuy near me has a HUGE selection of PC games.

When I asked the store clerk " do you have any PC games ? "

He said " Ya we got some " 3 ailes down on the left.

I walked down and turned left and about passed out. :o

WOW I was in heaven. :yeah:

[Task Force]

I bought both Silent Hunter II and III from Electronics Boutique in Perth's Hay St Mall and found SH IV dirt cheap at Harvey Norman in Osborne Park.

[JScones]

Not an issue here - I can't even remember the last time I walked into a computer game shop.

I buy exclusively from gameswarehouse.com.au.

The Aussies are getting PT-Boats first, probably next week! As yet there is no EU/US release date scheduled (apart from Germany).

Thankfully GAME stores are a national chain in the high st and generally offer a good selection. There's always Amazon.co.uk
