Its the same in the US, you need purchase the game off ebay at this point in time. Luckly, I bought one of the few remaining copies a few years ago, but as of late there are no copies for 360 anywhere.

it's an evil plot to force everyone off the console and onto PC... lol

Beginning to wonder if SE ever even ordered another pressing of the XB360 discs after it's first year on the market.

In all seriousness though, SE REALLY needs to get on the ball about the availability of this game in physical media, especially with Adoulin coming out for XB360. Prices for new discs are already getting WAY out of hand. Case in point these guys through Amazon:

...they have the 2008 collection listed as new, but it will cost you right at $170.

For existng owners, you can try contacting Microsoft directly about a replacement disc. Many publishers used to have one-time replacement options available for software (for a fee, of course), but it used to be standard practice at one time.

ya it's outrageous what these morons think they are going to get for the game, they are preying on people who have no idea you can buy the disc used for 15-25$ on ebay and get the authentication codes from buying the latest version of the game on steam. Parasites really. But ya, SE allows this to happen by not pressing out any new discs. Lets hope the new expac can remedy this issue, and fast!

Amazon is selling cheaper digital copies, not the same as a physical disk. For a physical copy your going to pay out the butt.

•The Microsoft Game Disc Replacement Program applies ONLY to games published by Microsoft and is subject to availability. If the game is published by another company, contact that company for a replacement disc. So se i want a replacement disc please, and for those sayin buy a secondhand copy, under se's terms thats not allowed, it says that the game is not to be sold by the prior owner, so they have that stitched up aswel

I totally agree, I'm also a uk player and play 360, my disc is struggling to read, I really want to get a new disc and have no idea where I can purchase one.

Could we get some information please on where we can get one, I prefer not to pay the amazon prices,

Thank you.
