Microsoft gained notority for spraypainting new built pavements with XBox logos in a larger australian city (don't remember where). They got an outrage as a result, for defacing something that cost a lot of money and was just finished...

Zoidberg: The "european" region is damn huge, pretty much anything outside North America and Japan is considered Europe by the marketing people. That includes Asia, Africa and Australia. I'm, not sure about South America.
I don't know if it's XX, but a store here has Guilty Gear running on a kiosk, so it can't be absolutely impossible to find.

Only 300 of Skies in Australia?
That sucks then, no wonder ebay auctions for it are in over $100.

would it be possible to still get a copy of the game now?

Sega is great at making games, but their marketing  is arguabely the worst in the industry. >_<   *bangs head against the walls*

It's a pity,really.

SoA (Eternal Skies) is being released in Japan as a budget game and I'm sure it's going be the same stateside.

So either Sell your copy now (if it's going for $100) if you have it.

And if you don't--wait a few months.

I wouldn't be so sure that Skies budget is going to be released outside of Japan. There are heaps of games that have budget versions released in Japan that never make it out of Japan. It would be nice, but i don't see it happening.. *shrug*
