One day left of the countdown!
Now it's 29. October (+2 GMT) and tomorrow is
the magic date, 30.10, when the Game arrives to
the stores. Just one more restless and sleepless
night and it's here. 
I can hardly wait for that moment;
and many other civ fans probably feel the same.

Yeah - congratulations to all of you! I have pre-ordered The Limited Edition Tin from Amazon.com about over two months ago, and now those F*CKING BASTARDS will not ship the game outside the USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate them! Perhaps the American on-line store EB will ship the game to Europe? (Then I will cancel
my order and then buy the LE there...)

Oh did-****ing-dums. Some of us have to wait to the 16th. Why? Is it because thats when the game arrives in the country? NO!
It's cause of some stupid idea about releasing games on a Friday.

Well, if I were facing that delay, I'd just use... let us say "Alternate Methods" of obtaining the game.

Re: Re: One day left of the countdown!
Not from EB you won't. It is shipping from EB's warehouse on Monday for arrival in stores on Tuesday. Unless your local EB has some magic teleportation device.........

As I said before, it's likely to be a restriction decided
by Infogrames, and not the retailers or Firaxis.
So ordering from EB won't probably help.

Or '1 days' to go according to the civ3.com website...
Wonder what is going to happen to civ3.com when the 1 becomes 0.
