As far as I know, the Direct to Drive site should still be up and running. The link may not work, but search for direct to drive and go to the site the old fashioned way. You may want to try searching "SH4 downloads" and see what you come up with. I would imagine a few places offer the download.

@soundman:

Yes the site is running and the link is working perfectly, the problem is that no sites are able to sell the game as a download outside US, Mexico or Canada, and I am situated in Europe ............I've never heard of anything so stupid as country restrictions on downloads, if I have to buy the bloody thing in a box and thereby wait for 100 years before it arrives, I might as well buy it here and support Neal.....

@Soundman:

Yes! Completely idiotic, I see no logic in this restriction what so ever....I tried Steam as a last resort yesterday and they had the same restriction....obviously, all the downloads come from the same place.......

@Task Force:

Well, most shops are closed now, I think I have only seen SH IV on the shelves of 1 store and a very long time ago so yeah......guess my only option is express shipping.......... something .............. and patience!

Well......one shouldn't complain I guess.....a few decades ago ordering something and having it shipped across the Atlantic was a big thing, costy and so on..............but it still stinks
