Ok, Ok, I'm intrigued by all the clearly stalwart fans of GPL here and
figure I must be missing out on something.
Where can I buy it in the USA, please? I have tried some obvious
places like Best Buy but to no avail.
Thanks

If GPL is no longer "in print" and can't be purchased except through second
parties (meaning Sierra is not intending to earn profits from further sales
of GPL)....is it all that bad that somebody would make a CD copy and send it
to this guy......so he doesn't have to search the earth to play GPL with us?
Just thought I'd ask....as a point of discussion.

Besides, it's not like you have to search the earth to find it. Even here
in Switzerland I see the occasional copy in bargain bins.

I got it from www.purplus.com based on a recommendation from someone in
this newsgroup. It was $9.98, plus about $5 shipping, and was the full
boxed version including printed manuals. It's definitely a worthwhile
game, and the included book "Four Wheel Drift" is worth the price all by
itself. I found that after just a few hours with GPL I finally got the
hang of controlling turns with my right foot, and was able to go back to
SCGT and other games and get better lap times as a result.

Hell no, don't anybody be sending our friend a CD copy of GPL.....just to be
nice. "Dang warez, copycat fringers!"
Tom
PS: Morton, if you don't find it in 24-hours, can you email me?

Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

I'm in the USA too, but I bought mine over the web from a place in
Canada, www.dragon.ca. I believe it was about $20 Canadian, which
is somewhat less in US dollars, plus shipping. This was the full
version with the manual and Steve Smith's book.
Please don't pirate it-- it's still readily available pretty cheaply,
and Papy deserves our support.

Big thank you to everyone who replied!
With your help, I have been able to buy a copy and look forward to
playing it soon!

It has taken me 3 weeks to get a 114.3466 handicap with a 1:30.43 at Monza

My Mexico and 'Ring times are holding me back.
Happy driving,
