Im sure it will, its release has been overshadowed by Richard Burns Rally, but Im sure there are still enough players who also like XpRally.
I myself got XpR over RBR because of the tools available with the game to make your own Rallye's, and our own liveries, perhaps the tools are good enough I cna make my own cars (I would love to recreate my personal car into a rally car, a Mazda MX-6 S/v6)

yea, Im in the US Smile
we get overlooked often with euro titles especially with Rallye games.
remember RS2000 ? I think it took almost 2 yrs before it was even offered here in the US, and they called it mobil 1 rally.
but its the exact same game Neutral
anyways, as soon as I recieve my copy (should be here any day now *crosses fingers*) Ill post my opinion.

Did it ever come? www.gogamer.com still keeps pushing the date back. On the xpand web site it says 37 euro + 17 eruo for the game and shipping. How many dollars does that equal? If I put my visa # in there will they do all the conversions for dollars to euro's?

nope, they wont, it posts with the polish currency (comes to $208.xx in Polish currency) freaked me out !! Shocked
I sent them an email ASAP asking how much I was paying for the game and that if it was costing me that much I wanted to cancel, I think they cancelled my order, cause it hasnt arrived yet Crying or Very sad
oh well, I cna wait until gogamer has it, since it will cost me about $20.0 less.

(euro conversion is slightly higher than the US dollar, so with those two prices, your looking at about $70 - $80 US)

I bought the game from the website and paid by card, all the calculations were done for me and the price was given by my card company in pounds. I'm in the UK so I would suppose the US would be converted into dollars.
Why don't you use the contact us link on the website and email and ask. They were very friendly and helpful with any questions I asked.
By the way the game is good, I even went out and bought a steering wheel of my own to play it with.
Let me add that I also bought CMR 2005 at the same time and ahh well thats another story.

I would hate to start one of those pointless debates that seem to adorn every forum I've ever visited so I would just say that I loved CMR2 and still play it. I bought CMR3 for PC and hardly played it. Mainly because I did not like the Ford Focus also 04 for PS2 and really didn't enjoy it that much.
I have never used a real dedicated PC forcefeedback wheel, I borrow my sons which is a PS2 Thrustmaster which work on PC's as well so I had never sampled the joys of FF so I took the plunge and bought one. I expected that the newer games would have refined the effects to todays standards so with high hopes I tried it first with CMR2005. Alright it must just be me I'm a crap driver, oh thats strange I seem to be okay with Xpand I know I'll try old and trusted CMR2. Wow, suddenly Finland wasn't a fast skoot round, it was a slipping sideways rainsoaked gravelly, muddy driving heaven. This must be why people buy forcefeedback wheels. Okay fast forward to 1 week later I have tried the wheel now on GTR demo verdict brilliant, RBR difficult but also brilliant. World Racing very enjoyable, CMR2 I just love it, replaying all the old stages being slower that with a joypad but getting so much more out of the game. Ooooh yes CMR2005 I tried it again even tried career mode but thats yet another story.
Sorry for such a long rambling post but one of the reasons I liked Mobil Rally Championship was the long rambling stages. Smile
Cheers
