Really? The brief write-up on Electronic Boutique's website makes it sound as if there's at least the pretence of a moral issue involved (which seems to be a requirement in nearly every Japanese console RPG these days - with the rather noteable exception of Dragon Quest VIII, the game that came free with the FFXII demo :P ). In any event, I'll probably swing by the EB and/or Gamestop at the nearby mall tonight and see if they have it in stock. junior -- _______________________________________________ Search for businesses by name, location, or phone number. -Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10 -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
