Hi everyone.. 1st of all, I am a new member here and this is my very 1st post.. Okay..I just come back from US after my 4 years of study there..during my time there, buying a new release was not a problem at all..now my problem is, when I come back to my hometown Kuching, game stores here do not sell too many games (the original, if you know what I mean)..and after 2 months of staying here, the only game that I bought is DMC4 for 360..even Bully is not yet arrived at Swk yet and I damn want to play that game..360 sure has a pretty strong lineup this year, and I afraid I will not be able to play them, especially GTA4..I asked every store owner will you sell (game title) here and almost all answers are the same..not sure yet..which is frustrating.. The next-gen consoles isnt that hot at sarawak compared to peninsula..it is rare for someone here to have a ps3, 360 or wii, if there any..so to anyone who may concern, can you kindly help me? I mean, help buy me games that I desired..and pos laju it or whatever to me at Sarawak..I will advance any expenses straight to your bank account, sound risky though, but I do need help. Hope there is someone kind enough to help. Oh BTW, I can give you some commission though

Amazon doesnt ship games to Malaysia, but www.play-asia.com does, so you can always get your games from there. Its even got free shipping to Malaysia, but it might take a while to reach you though.

That's because Bully isn't available for Asian market yet , AFAIK . Even in KL , there isn't anyone playing it . BTW , if you have friends in KL , you can ask them to buy for you . Certain sellers here in LYN also do postage and they can get games kinda fast too .

better buy from play-asia or the shops stated in this forum. either way it's the easiest and most secure way of buying online.  it's cheaper anyway compared to buying from local shops (as in my case anyway...not sure how much it is now in Kuching)

Yo bro, I'm from Kuching and 99% of my games (PSP, PS3 and Xbox 360) are all bought from Play-Asia. I highly recommend you to avoid our local game shops in Kuching at all cost. If you don't have a credit card then maybe we can work something out. Like we can share shipping cost if you want to buy a new game.

Next time I go back to Kuching, I'll let you guys know and I can ta-pow back some games for you. Just give me your shopping list and I'll sort it out.
Send me a pm if you're interested and let all your Kuching friends know. I'm doing this as a favour and because I want to see a more exciting games scene in Kuching.
