I have this game in PAL version but it doesn't seem to be in the PAL section, only in NTSC (and rated at 7)
Why?

Because the PAL section is only about 10-25% complete.

I heard that the PAL version is the equivalent of a 5. Is this true?

yeah, 4-5 would be a fair rarity for xenophobe. I remember the mid-90s when this game was stacked up high in a toy store chain here in Holland. Germany and England carry large stocks of new-in-box late red/brown releases also.

Cheers,

Marco

Why?

Hi Zanza -- At the present time, our list of PAL software is incomplete. This is something that Alex and I will be addressing soon, with a big push to have accurate listings of the various games available outside the US. Most of the initial titles we put online are games that weren't released in the US. We will eventually include all the "duplicate" titles, such as everything released by Atari in PAL format. It's a big effort, though, especially if you want to include scans of all the titles. We'll probably tackle one company at a time, to make it manageable..
