It wasn't in any gameshops (on the town) here in mid-Finland today. "Come back on next week" :they said (actually meant next month). hmm.gif

I was there ... but it wasn't. tongue.gif

Well, three hours Olympic curling game (turn-based tactics) and then to a local bar... cool.gif

Tomorrow has been postponed until further notice due to incompetent distribution....
I just got an order update from my vendor today....They say that it is in back order and will ship in 5 to 7 days....
What is with this delay?....Is it really so popular that it has taken taken the distributors by surprise? If that is the case then it is a poor excuse....If they feel overshadowed by the new big game releases on Thursday then that is another poor excuse....
I am not interested in excuses I want this delay thing resolved or I will have to visit the CDV offices in Germany....

Hammer & Sickle was released in Germany yesterday. The prize is 29.95$, which, I think, is quite a lot for a mod gone full game. And I think it's more expansive than in France (looks at Brandeburg).
I won't buy it yet because I still have papers to write. Perhaps in April... I'll inform you about the PC Games review of the game.

That is way more expensive then Play or Amazon. I suggest you order it from there if you don't mind playing it in English.

@Sorbicol: Enjoy! smile.gif And let us know what you think.

No, CDV will be rich smile.gif $35 - too big cost for this game, i think. In Russia i buy it for $12.

*grumbles something nasty about greey publishers while looking for cheap Russian vocabulary books*

Nah, just kidding. I'll get the German version, kinda "support your local language". Different to other top title PC games, like Unreal II (holy f*ck!), the actually German produced X3 (two different ship computer voices!) or the pre-Generals Command & Conquer series, S2 and S3 had a good to great localization. My tip to the hat for those 10 persons who spoke all characters. I don't even remember having found translation mistakes as is often the case with formerly English games.
So I guess it's okay if we privileged West Europeans pay a little bit more for well (!) localized games - although I think 5 bucks less wouldn't kill CDV, now would they?

*Edit* The version they offered me on Amazon.de was 29,95$.
Darn, since the publisher changed, I can't be sure if the localization team is still the same! A change of publisher already screwed up the Jagged Alliance 2 mission disc. Seems as if I have to download the German demo to find out...

Sell your next game through the Stardock online distribution next time. They seem like decent fellows smile.gif

Windows just cancelled the half finished download of the 330mb demo because "the time limit was reached".
Great, wasted 3hrs of bandwith. angry.gif
I hope I'll get the Hammer & Sickle demo on the next PC Games, though I doubt it since the demo is already available for a while.
