Brace yourselves Gentlemen, I spoke to the Ubisoft Head Office today and they have confirmed that there will be NO COLLECTORS OR BOXED SETS available for sale in Australia, this will be DLC only!!!!! You can contact Ubisoft directly on 02 85871800. Sorry about the bad news, get your overseas orders in quick!

Seriously, does Ubisoft ever make a good decision? This is pathetic.

Yeah and they reported an operating profit loss of $55.5mil for March 2010!

If they spent less money on crappy protection systems that, lets be honest, don't work, then they may actually turn over a profit, keep paying customer's happy and maybe be able to put more $$$ into better development of their in house titles and GIVE US AUSSIES THE FRIGGEN COLLECTOR EDITION!

But I know there's some department manager or CEO at UBI looking for ways to try and justify their job by concocting a smoke screen on paper that they can present to their stakeholder which says "hey we lost money but we're on track to make a profit "in the near furture" as we winning the in pirated software war."

Some people just can't admit they're wrong.

Well! Damn!

Given the choice I would have prefered to put my money through a local company, But I would rather have the boxed copy. It seems a bit short sighted by Ubi Australia.

Cheers and thanks for the heads up.

I would rather bye the box copy than down loading it. I hate down loading games it takes to long, the box give 1 hr installing and patching and your playing.
Down loading you waiting 6 or more hour then may have a power outage or some so you may have to re down load the 6hrs again, it a pain in the sun dont shine

You would think that someone at Ubisoft Australia could pick up the phone and get the warehouse to send a few sets sent out for sale through their Ubishop. Apparently not! So, what are our alternatives? Can anyone suggest a reliable UK site or similiar, boostep.com looks like a possibility. Must be a way to sort something out.
