DVD box?! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

[tuckson]

Are they actually shipping a decent manual with civ3 ? I mean like the manual of civ2?

Or do we need to buy the limited edition (or just the strategy guide) for our extra reading needs?

Haven't seen it confirmed yet.

BTW, I did contact Infogrames about the limited edition for europe, but I guess those guys don't know hoe to e-mail. Still haven't seen a reply. Not even an automated one.

Kind regards,

JG,

"However, as one poster made the point, do we really need to deforest another few acres just for a manual that we, as veteran civers will like as not never actually need to use?"

What about the platic they use for the DVD boxes


"If they put the game on a DVD disc they wouldn't need multiple CDs."

And cut their own collective throat by making it inaccessable to around 80% of the gamers

Red Alert 2 doesn't fare too well with a DVD box. As there are 2 CDs, one of them has to be stored in a plastic slip-thing. Not very good.

But DVD boxes are better on the whole. It seems virtually every game comes in a DVD box now, from the RCT expansion packs to Traffic Giant.

are you kiddding me? wherever I go ( circuit city, best buy, babbages) i haven't seen a dvd box for a computer gam.

ALSO look at the ordering screen/thingie at the apolyton civ site. DOes that look like a dvd box to you?
