Collectors Edition confirmed for Europa Universalis III

[Snake IV]

Did you have to do this? Now I will be even more excited about getting the game and it is still half a year left. Very wel, maybe I can talk me into saving one days waiting by going down to pick up my copy personally so I don't have to wait for it arriving in my mailbox. Wishthinking.

You don't need to have the cd in the cdrom when you play a Paradox game.

I needed when Eu2 was new and I had 56k modem!
Took a long time to download patches whit that modem!

So, about this soundtrack business... How many hours of music are we talking here?

Why the new thread?

Why the new thread?

He probably didn't knew it was already in the EU3 forum . I wonder how much it will cost.

 

[jordarkelf]

Save one copy of this for me

I am definitely ordering this.

 

[Bodders]

I bought the Collector's Edition of Star Wars Galaxies.

Boy, did I regret that

Although I am somewhat worried that collector's editions tend to go with games that in the end have more hype than substance, I will buy this one too.
