  • Anyone noticed this before?

    On the side of the CD case for ToT, Civilization is spelt "Civilizatoin". I just noticed today. Isn`t it really amazing?

    I never noticed before. However, since you pointed it out I checked with my copy and it's there too. On both edges of the casing.

      Interesting. Mine is spelled correctly. When and where did you buy yours. I bought mine about a week after it came out in Mobile, Alabama.

        Hang onto the misspelled ones, guys. If there are few enough, they could become collectors' items.

          I think I'll purchase ToT soon, and I'll see whether this mistake will appear or not.
          One more time: is ToT really worth its money, with all the missing Multimedia (which I also don't use in a normal game...), and all the other ´negative things that were mentioned about it (although I'm not sure whether there were any other things mentioned... ) ???

          Should I really buy it?

            Andz83: please read the "Couple of Questions" thread, found in this forum.
            No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                      I slept in front of the doors of the software store until it came out. First one to buy it. 5:00 AM that morning.
                      Just kidding...
                      Mine is spelled OK. Strange...

                        they probably misspelled it purposely for the UK versions since the British can't spell civilization properly . M

                          Anyway, I started a thread on the ToT forum to see how many people had misspelled boxes. None of the lazy buggers have replied yet, so I`ll have to make them.
