Well, since I was planning on playing into the wee hours Friday night anyway... you talked me into it. Will there be punch and pie?

Mine showed up today as well (NC). One week and one day since placing my order, not bad at all! I'm also curious about the serial number being different. I guess it's okay if I just keep using my old one, isn't it? I hate typing these things in. :p

Seeking attractive female strategy gamer for serious LAN relationship. Co-op only. Send photo and detailed PC specs. No console or Mac chicks, please! Let's see, a forum full of young males with hobbies that include weapon research and technology, orbital planetary bombardment, and universal conquest. Sure, there's gonna be hormones. Maybe later I'll post a picture of me in front of Starbucks with the envelope that I've got my serial number scrawled on. Would that qualify? Prob

See, you don't HAVE to run hundred-thousand-dollar ad campaigns on Gamespot to get a great score! All you've gotta do is make a great game! Apparently Ironclad and Stardock know how to do that. Give some classes, guys. Good review, I've always enjoyed Ocampo's work. Hopefully I'll be able to read him again on a different site someday.

Oh, I think the review's spot-on. I was mainly referencing the recent Kane and Lynch / Jeff Gerstmann debacle and the fact that much of the site's editorial talent has jumped ship (along with a significant portion of the site's userbase). 9 is a great score from GS, but it just doesn't seem to carry the weight it used to...

So did you guys get an email when your order shipped saying anything like "Hey fella, we shipped your order today!" or did the box just show up on your doorstep all surprise-like?

Gamespot gives it a 9.0 + Editor's Choice. I mean... not that anyone pays any attention to Gamespot reviews anymore, but there you have it. :p

Whoa, I just ordered mine online night before last and figured I'd pop by the forum to see how long I can expect to wait. Guess I should just go ahead and print out the pdf manual (I'm one of those gamers who insists on a generous helping of printed manual with my strategy). Guys, remember that Stardock is still a relatively small publisher, so the logistics in coping with a huge amount of orders is probably a bit of a nightmare. I don't know if any of you are familiar with Shrapnel Ga

Yes, more speed options please. And that's all I have to say about that.
