After looking a bit at forums, looks like $99.99 Special Edition wouldn't include Babylon civilization, it still stays exclusive to $59.99 STEAM Deluxe Edition
Many of you have written on the forums and emailed in questions about whether or not there will be a public demo for Civilization V.
Well, today I am excited to get to tell you that yes, there will be!
The demo will be released in September, before the full game is released. More details about what will be available in the demo, as well as the exact release date are coming soon, so stay tuned!
yeah! looks fine!! but i fear that after 5 or 6 hours of play you will get bored and stressed with that terrain and textures... i hope its coming with a sort of "climate stations" or "day and night" features if you like...
If i was in the US .. i could get this for $65 NZD
If i buy this from steam.. its going to cost me $110 NZD
If i buy this from a shop here.. its going to cost $90 NZD.
$30 AUD difference between what they charge the US and Australia. Otherwise known as 2K being arseholes. Steam only allows this bullshit to happen but it's firmly 2Ks decision. I've stated on their forums many times how their pricing policy is pathetic especially in regards to regionally priced DLC. You can't buy that shit locally SO WHY DOES IT COST MORE? WTF.
Our retailers will crap all over the steam price on release. Heck one retailer was selling Starcraft 2 for 55AUD that's less than American retail. I'd expect retailers to offer this around $60-70 AUD with importers beating the lot at a solid $50AUD. Meanwhile steam sits there being $20+ more expensive than every other option. Obviously this has something to with with brick and mortar stores but that still doesn't explain DLC costs for say Borderlands.
You will ofc still need to connect to steam - but you don't have to pay as much
I've already pre-ordered from g2play.net much cheaper. It's a Steam game so you will still be able to download and get the regular steam service. Must say I really like g2play.net. They're always cheaper than Steam even for Steam games.
