(Psst. Don't talk so loud; "they" might hear us.)

Actually, Firaxis should pay US since the game needs so much playtesting.

I didn't pay $44.95, plus Strategy Guide, to end up a Beta playtester.

I'd be willing to pay ten bucks for the game. I'll just have to wait a few months for it to start showing up in the bargain bin; it'll probably take that long for people to finally start ignoring the game reviews that say "We give Civ III a 98% because, well, it's Civ III!" After that it'll be all down hill for the game.

I'm wondering who the heck voted for $70. C'mon, own up: who's the sucker?

hey people stop voting for $70!!

Infogrames accountants will see this. And you can guess what will happen with games in the future.

We've been lucky there haven't been substantial increases in game costs the past 5 years or so (of course the companies make add ons to increase their profits). Who knows how long that will last.

As is: FREE!

Patched, fixed, MP included, fully functional editor: $70 (what I originally payed, before I took it back)

If the non-existent scenario editor ever comes out then I'd consider getting it for the present full market price, about a hundred $ Aus.
If the LE contained what it was supposed to then I'd probably grab that instead.
Without said editor I won't touch the thing.

Whatever Infogrammes decides to charge. Let the marketplace rule.

And no, I didn't vote.

I would pay around $30-40 for the game and all the LE "extras". I do kind of like the tin, and despite the games flaws I have a good time with it...but I do feel a bit ripped off, paying $60 for the LE.

I bought the US Limited edition last November here for 79 German marks, that's about $35. It's a good price and I don't feel ripped off. I feel rather ripped off by Microsoft, because especially for playing Civ3 I had to install an operating system, that was more expensive and much more buggy than a game can ever be.

Hey, do they sell just the tin, without the game? I might be willing to go for that!

The cheaper the better...

Duh!
