civ 3 limited edition??

[SerapisIV]

The Prima strategy guides are CRAP for open ended games like Civ. I looked through the SMAC strategy guide at a Barnes and Nobles once, all it contained that was useful was a map of planet. 95% of the rest was straight info from the manual. The other 5% was generic Civ strategies, like being a builder or a quick conqueror. Crap.

If the main draw of a Limited Edition is a Prima guide, avoid it at all cost. You'll get way more info by just reading an hour of Apolyton postings when it gets released.

Civ3LE releases 15 days earlier!

That's right! According to Adrenaline Vault the Limited Edition will be released October 1st while the normal edition will be released October 16th.

I don't know for sure this is true though since both EBGames and GameStop show that the release date for the Limited edition is October 16th just like the normal Civ3.

Can anyone vouch for the credibility of Avault?
