Not sure if this is just a local store market issue..but I can't find
GPL. Babbages nor Electronic Boutique, the two main software stores in
my area(Burlington VT.), carry it. In fact EB doesn't even carry a
listing for the game on their web site, although Babbages does. Is it
because sims like GPL are really just a niche market(no offense, I love
the demo!!)

well GPL wasn't even much of a critical success on the mass-market let alone
a commercial one, so I doubt many stores are keeping it on the shelf

however if you'd like to order it goto http://www.ogr.com and click on the
chips and pits link in the upper left, they have it for 19.95

That's odd about EB because that's where I bought my copy here in
Chesapeake, VA.

Go to www.ebay.com and search for grand prix legends. I uyst saw GPL go on a
dutch auction
for 9.99 plus $5 shipping... not a bad deal. And only 1 person bid on it so
a good chance
it will show up again.

You guys must be in the boonies. :) In Chicago area the stores have GPL up
with all the latest racing releases including SCGT.
However, at 19.95 thats an absolute steal!

I seem to remember people having a hard time finding GPL listed when
it was originally released. Reason: it's listed under "Sierra Sports -
Grand Prix Legends" rather than just GPL.
