adaliabooks: I know some Nordic games have popped up but what I understand about XIII it's unlikely to reappear. Something to do with too many different rights holders (there was a thread about it just recently)
Grargar: Nothing of the sort. XIII is a licensed gamed (based on a comic book) and as with all licensed games that aren't owned by the license holders themselves, it was bound to expire and that's why it was removed across all stores. Ubisoft selling it here even for a temporary time would be illegal, because they no longer have the rights to distribute it.
Yeah, that's the one. I knew it was something to do with rights or licences...
But there is zero chance of it showing up like the Nordic games as you have mentioned :)
adaliabooks: Thanks :)
Looking at the price and discount it's probably too high for me to consider for what is basically an impulse purchase... especially if it might not work (well)...
Stilton: Adalia, my man, I think you're wise to steer clear. I think I'm morphing into a brigadier-general...tally-ho...pip-pip....
Lol. I can see it now... Have you got a large bushy moustache, a pipe and a monocle?
