The Cost Of Conquests

[Paddy]

I just want to say that I am impressed that Conquests is to go on sale in Australia from $26.95.

I am shocked, and had considered that I would be paying over $60.00 AUD.

Thanks Atari for pulling the proverbial out and looking after the community.

hi ,

after a search in the news section on apolyton ;



PUBLISHER CONFIRMATION?
(13 June 2003, 23:52 | Civ3) The Australia and New Zealand branch of gaming publisher Atari is listing both Civilization III: Conquests and Civilization III: Gold on their website. While no description or images are provided, their entries do cite an October 28th release date of this year further cooroborating earlier reports on this front [related stories]; more importantly, this comes from an international branch of Atari, a source that can be deemed official to this end. C3C is CivIII`s second expansion pack and CivIII: Gold is suspected to be the original CivIII and the game`s first expansion pack, Play The World, packaged together.

The former is listed with a $29.95AU and the latter a $49.95AU pricetag. Thanks to panag for the news tip. - DanQ

Aussie dollars are about 50 cents. So if he's talking Aussie dollars that's a very good deal.

[Paddy]

Wow... you just have to be careful where you but it...

Games Warehouse still have it at $26.95

Long live free trade...

But that is a remarkable price difference...

Interesting point Trip.

Yet both of these sites are on Australia Dollar....

Although I do not have the exact rate of exchange, I have been told we are between 70 and 75 cents US this weekend...

[CanuckSoldier]

$70.45 at the moment, it like the Can dollar($75.65) have grown stronger lately. Still that is a very good deal, it's strange that they don't have the box image to display.

Hmm 26.95 AUD? If that is 0.7045 AUD exchange rate, why the heck is C3C 39.95 Canadian at minimum (high as 49.95) with a 0.75 exchange rate in Canada....

[CanuckSoldier]

I think that the site is a marketing mistake, an that we'll see it change on or near the 14th.

[Paddy]

I hope it is a mistake
