Want to buy the game

from Sins Forums

hi

I really like this game and i have tried the demo. it runs excellent on my 1 year old Pc but if i order the game, do i get the CD with the game in it or a serial key or something. oh yeh, and are there going to be any stores in London.

Thanks

There's no European publisher still, so I wouldn't count on it being in stores there anytime soon.

You can order it two ways through Stardock directly:

Download Only will get you the Collector's Edition goodies in digital format (music mp3s, pdfs) and you'll get your serial # and the ability to download the game as many times as you like. You can also back it up on a dvd if you want to.

Download + Disc will get you a CE box shipped to you with the music CD and the poster versions of other goodies. You'll also get the ability to download it while you wait for the box.

Stardock only charges in USD, so you'll get it for a steal with the conversion rate :P

i was interested to buy the normal version because it is quite cheap here where i live, would they send me the download link with the serial key and other stuff by email, or do they post it.

Actually, Stardock only sells the CE until they run out, it's only $5 US pricier than you'd get it in a store, though. Chances are what you're seeing is it :P

You'd be emailed your registration info, and use Stardock Central (their software distribution program) to download it. Lots of people across the pond got great speeds from it, and the download itself is about ~900mb

they give u the download link and serial immediately after you place the order.

I'm in the UK, it took approx 1hr40mins from purchase to play using a ~2mb/s connection

i'd used Stardock Central before (simple program that handles the serial, download and future updates) though so add another 20mins or so for that.
