I doubt it but I bet you'll have to pay for some of the extra car pack's and garages via MS like you have to do on the Xbox with titles like PGR3

Gah. Love this game but it's going to be annoying re-doing everything I did in the open beta. Especially the island tour race... over an hour for one race... eeek

Apparantly the beta saves work fine with the final release.

be careful with these cowboys.
I have placed an order with them on Thursday when this item changed to in stock and it has still not changed status from initial order.
I have emailed them a few times and no reply.
looks like they are just falsely advertising game in stock when its just a pre-order.
and guess what, they have kindly taken the money from my account already.

SkeeterUK · 3 Mar 2007 at 08:25

Sry to hear. I only know of this from yesterday because I saw someone post that they can get the game in the UK from here from atari europe TDU forums (the white boards not blue from other atari TDU forums.

My mates in NL so has the game. And many ppl over in the Europe version of Atari forums have the game as i said in Sweden and NL. With photos of the game in their hands etc.

There a bit upset that the cars arnt in the final game like nissan skyline etc. Cos they will probably have to be downloaded just like xbox360 cars were for x360.

I ordered a copy of TDU from game seek on Saturday. Said in the email...
"Your order is being processed, and will be with you shortly."
I noticed on the site they do have a pre-order and in stock mode.

"In stock Now! - Usually dispatched within 24 hours."

I'll leave it until tomorrow, then try and contact them

I have still not heard back from them having now sent about 5 emails!.

I am confident they do not have the item in stock, they have taken my money (on Thursday!), and will not answer any of my emails.

I have sent in 2 emails of cancellation now and still not had a reply.

They do not list the phone number either, so I have no way of speaking to anyone.

Cowboys! Avoid!

SkeeterUK · 5 Mar 2007 at 10:39

Their phone number is 0870 803 4988 (had to dig about to find it on a simulation games site Here)

SkeeterUK · 5 Mar 2007 at 10:51

Hmm might not be their number after reading this sounds like fake number now.

Mortster · 5 Mar 2007 at 11:16

Thanks once again.

I have fired an email off to that address, all I ask for is just a response, an update. It's obvious they do not have this item in stock, but are just trying to grab the orders in.

utajoker · 5 Mar 2007 at 11:49

so when is the game actually released in uk shops?

Mortster · 5 Mar 2007 at 11:50

Well, finally I have an email explaining that the item is actually NOT in stock !
