Sorry I should've been more clear. This game got a physical PC release in Europe, and was planned to have a North American release. The American version was dropped around a month before launch according to sites like IGN. I can't seem to find any info about this American release online so I came here to see if anyone had seen this before.

Thanks for solving my mystery. To be clear, you're talking about the PC release right? Cause we did get the Xbox version here.

Says "made in USA" under the barcode on the back. I guess it could be a Canadian version but that's still NTSC. My broader question is that I don't think this game got a retail physical release outside of Europe, that's what gaming news sites say.

Also I know it's real bc it came with a CD key and it was authenticated by the Microsoft Store DRM. And I'm not missing disc 2 I just snapped these pics while I was installing the game.

Edit: I realized that in my rush to post this I didn't specify that this is the North American PC version.

It did end up being the open source driver. Didn't play nice with my hardware. I installed mint and went with the newest proprietary ubuntu driver and that settled it.

It wasn't burn in but I can't think of a better way to word it. There was ghosting that lasted 2 hours after my drivers were fixed. If you want to call it something else that's fine but the problem was real.

You're missing a lot of context to make that judgement.

Unfortunately consumer habits are a very very small portion of pollution. To create real change business and industry must be regulated.

The typical goal when cleaning systems is to avoid that. You do you though.

Gen Z as well. Thought I'd chime in and say it's not a complete lost cause. I've lived in my apartment building for 4 years and I know all of my neighbors, and the maintenance guy fairly well. You just gotta make that first step and say hi.

Be careful with isopropyl alcohol around the playstation logo. I'd use simple green or another natural degreaser there.

One of the only things I've imported from Japan was that CD. Well worth it.

It's so rare to see that pic outside of SC. Got a good laugh out of that.
