Arma2 twitter says that 505 games will handle Arma2 in Aus, more info to come. Also other answers on their twitter page say that the 505 games version is the most complete, so thats cool.

We don't have an 18+ rating in Australia, it will be ma15+ like everything else. All that stuff is in USA data, ana the price etc.

That version from CDWOW is an imported version, but that price is AUD.

It's why it's so cheap, probably importing in bulk.

If you notice, there's a country changer in the top right of the site.

Change it to United States, and the ArmA II price is now $33.99 USD.

Thanks for that

Then this shining COW could be a nice option for Aus:rolleyes:

Excuse the pun:p

[mach1ne 10]

so I guess most of the aussies will be purchasing it from cdwow? Is this a 505 release?

[the_antipop 10]

I just preordered from CdWow. So you can confirm that CdWow is selling imported 505 Games EU release? And it 'should' be released/sent before the 'stock' AU release date correct?

[mikebart 1]

but will the CdWow version be in English?

those prices are insane, with the A$ so good against the british pound, I'm going to import and save myself 50% of the box price. (just like I do with my PS3 games)

We get ripped off.

hmm, you have a good idea there Southy :)

[TheReddog 0]

Prices for games down here in Australia are outrageous, as are the prices for anything electrical.

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Indeed. I import both from overseas when I can.

Cheers 76 did Freeborne pass over those links:p

Thanks Southy for that information, even Rico will now look at the D/L Process:yay:

[eble 3]

I have a connection in the UK so I get free postage to a UK address then re-package and sent to me here in Adelaide.

Personally I'm not fussed so I'll go down for the UK download on release.

[Nazul 10]

Hmm very tempting to make an order, i think ill hold off for a bit, until the game has gone gold, probably this week. Anyone in Cairns wanna go halvies in postage?

[boomar. 10]

I prefer a nice shiny game box and all the shiz inside. Nothing beats the smell of a new game disc =D.
