Compleat lack of Sins

My Search for the Holy Grail

I find this amazing, even just a week after it's release, Montreal has a compleat lack of SoaSE.
Not one Box in all of Montreal. (Qc, Canada) I've gone back to EB, All three Gamebuzz and All Futureshops, Staples, none.

Amazing.

People tell me it's available for download.

I don't want to.

Why?

The box art, the physical manual in hand and, of course

That sweet sweet new-game smell.

You don't get that from downloads.

Order a hard copy from the site then?

Don't you love how the PC gaming market is being more and more abused by retailers? No wonder there's problems with the PC gaming market--stores are a large part of the problem. At least you could actually find the PC gaming section in the games-only stores. They normally stick it in the back dark corner. Walmart, Staples, Target, etc. do a nice job with placement though.

I would advise you to order it online for shipping.

Indeed very true, Which site would have faster shipping? I'm partial to the CE.

EBgames.com reated me right.
I've been dying for a good $X scince the Original Pax Imperia. (For Mac)
GCII was amazing, but alas, no MP.

Use buy now button at top of forum and get box from stardock. You can then download and play while you await your copy to arrive by post!

Shweeet!

TY!

It's the CE right?

From the buy now, it shows CE' CE description, But past that there is the picture of the CE Box, but no CE in the description.

Just making sure... Still 50$...

Keep in mind the price you pay will depend on how your currency converts to the US dollar. £1 = $2 at the moment.

All direct orders are CE until we announce that (if/when) we've run out.

What amazes me is that in year 2008 - in the time of www - we have posts and problems like this...

I live in Europe and have purchased the game directly from publisher / developer - i started playing it 1st day of release and they have also kindly dispatched me CE edition in the lovely box as well - all this at cheaper price and much faster as well than if i was to walk from shop to shop not to say if i was to wait for euro release...

Guys...

Click on that BUY NOW button above your heads and enjoy the game of the year - stop complicating your life...
