It isn't. Atari whom have the contract decided there were not enough projected sales to warrant importing it.

Direct import only gentlemen.

Atari's website is still saying May:

If you have a credit card and don't mind shopping online then it's a no-brainer.

Delivery is only a couple of pounds. It'll work out $20 cheaper than you'll be able to grab it here off the shelf and it only takes them a week to 10 days to deliver it.

I thought GTR was that F1CC mod thing that went commercial. I see there is another one now, from ATARI no less (thought that was dead)

Someone should tell Games Warehouse they are a bit over the top then...

$97.95 + Aus delivery

Gameswarehouse are importing them and then selling them on. I agree, the price is stupid.

It is. Atari are the local publisher whilst Simbin is the developer.

by the way, a May release may make sense as there is a patch due at the start of next month. One would assume that the version released here would already have the next patch included.

I'm still thinking, do I import or wait for a release here? Having no credit card does make it tough but there are ither options I guess.
