It's not often I say this.
But.
Swwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeettttttt!
I so want that.
Though, in the end I'll probably just get the normal DVD vers from... that company.
And the SR clan thing sounds good.
Hopefully, we'll be getting Broadband this month, and most likely it'll be 1mbps we're getting, which will kick bootay.
We've been meaning for aagesssss to get BB, but never have.
"Oh, too much hassle"
Bah.

There is a campaign running already. Trust me fake registrations are my only option.

Our exchange needed no registerations :D we had it back in June 2002. One thing with doing fake registerations is that they do it because it costs BT a hell of a lot to upgrade an exchange. If theres no demand then there is no profit. The best way is to start campaigning and getting people interested.

Good, just so long as the game gets to me at a reasonable time and in one piece, I'm not fussed.
And for anyone interested, here's an article at gamespy on the Special edition [URL]http://www.gamespy.com/articles/february04/ut2004dvd/[/URL] and heres the lovely looking metal box it'll be shipping in [URL]http://www.gamespy.com/asp/image.asp?/articles/february04/ut2004dvd/01.jpg[/URL] Can't wait.
> Where are you getting it from?
I'm not sure SR will appreciate this but ImportMadness is the place I've ordered it from. Haven't ordered from there before and have no clue of how long it will take to deliver, but still, I love extras and it's still a great price.

PC games have no regional coding like consoles, so you can purchase and install a game from the states as easy as installing a game from the UK.

Import from where?
I WANT IT!

Still a bargain though since the only UK retailer I've seen that's selling it has it priced at around £50!!
