$75 US. I think the normal game runs $55-60 US, still a lot though.

No. I think there were 4 limited edition covers, and the people who preordered could pick. But the collector's edition is sold to regular customers, just gotta find one.

Night Stormer · 07-03-2002, 03:44 PM

cool, i saw the box covers on blizz website and i like the one wit the freaky skull dude

hey, gekko, u have both wc3 and ed, which one should i get first?

Angrist · 07-03-2002, 05:08 PM

It costs €80 here. Not sure if I'll get it... perhaps the normal version one day... although the collector's edition looks super cool.

Is there a demo??

Umm... Warcraft 3. That way we can play as a clan. If you plan to play online, Warcraft 3 will last you a lot longer than ED. Might as well get started while it's still new.

Night Stormer · 07-04-2002, 11:53 AM

ok... sounds good... i dunno when i'll get a chance to get it tho

... I hate living in a town

where u have to buy your games in a city a hour and a half away

Angrist · 07-04-2002, 01:01 PM

I'd really like to get the game, but I'm not sure how much I can play it when my dad needs his PC for his work.

I'm going into town tonight... who knows...

Angrist · 07-04-2002, 06:33 PM

Blast. I (we) decided to get the game, so we went into town. But.... we couldn't find it anywhere!

So I guess it'll take a while before it's released here...

So now I'm DLing some illegal version to keep us busy until it finally arives.

lol, I just played WarCraft 1! It's terrible!! You can't just right-click on the ground to send the selected unit there, you gotta click 'move' first!! Same with attack and everything else! Conclusion: I'm not going to play WC1!!

Night Stormer · 07-04-2002, 10:30 PM

OMG!!!! i just got the collectors today

Night Stormer · 07-04-2002, 11:22 PM
