Just wondering if anyone knows any decent sites (that are based or ship to the uk)? I'm looking for Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II for the gamecube but no where seems to stock it now I want it... less than a month ago it was everywhere.

I might as well list a few places I've looked:
http://www.play.com (not the cheapest)
http://www.loaded247.com (not a great range)
http://www.amazon.co.uk (expensive and not a great range)
http://www.ebay.co.uk (some decent bargains, 1st/2nd hand, limited range)
http://www.cex.co.uk (decent range, 1st and 2nd hand, overpriced)
http://shop.game.net/ (decent enough range)

IIRC both have a facility to check all stores for s/h stock :)

Hope that helps

~?25 would be fair, I'm not being cheap but the prices its going for on ebay are far too high :( Has to be PAL (i think anywhere in europe is fine to work on a uk GCN, but i'm not sure)

I just need a shop that stocks it atm, they all seem to have no copies left. One of my friends had it in january but the tit sold it for ?10.

I looked in computer exchange but they don't have any atm. Gamestation didn't have any copies. Local shadey guy didn't have any but said he sells it for ?20.

I've been looking around and this game seems to be vanished of the face of the earth :o I heard they've stopped producing this game and that was the reason it's so hard to get hold of this game. Anyway I've found just one store out of the many I've looked that sells it, but won't ship to the UK :matrix:

the reason they've stop selling is because its the bootgame you need to pirate games lol.

Tis okay, I managed to get it from http://www.amazon.co.uk now via another shop where I actually last saw it so all is good. :)

Thanks for looking. I've bookmarked all these stores anyway, next time i'm on a DVD/game scout they'll come in handy :mrgreen:

Just as an FYI, apparently PSOIII works as a boot disk too :)

ffs.. now they tell me. :lol:

Anyway, apparantly I heard it was only the Japanese and the US version does not boot, which leads me to believe the alterations to the netcode that bans LAN addresses is present in the PAL version too.
