Is there no Amazon in Australia? Here in Austria (we have no kangaroos) you can buy tons of it in all shops for a while now (2 weeks?). But I took X2 instead because it is cheap now and I'm afraid my 2GHz with a 9600pro pc won't be lucky with X3... Regards

In Perth I've seen 3 EB's so far fully stocked with several rows of shelves for X3. I didn't see it in any of the big chains like Target etc however, just EB. Ceo-

Hi P. :-) so X3 would be worth a try and it could run on my PC also... Do you have 1GB of RAM? Did you also play X2? IF so, is it fun to play X3 if one already played X2? I'm just at the beginning of the X2 game. It reminds me very much on Elite (how comes? :o) Yesterday I had a fight with a Pirate but I had no chance to destroy the ship just with my laser guns. I wonder if this is even possible? But maybe I'm a bad fighter :-D Cheers

I haven't gotten very far into X3 yet, so I can not honestly comment on much else about the game.
