yep, EU.

same with SC2.

really hoping the difference between playing BETA on US and playing FULL on EU will be huge.
 
So in our shops May15 ? I see a midnight launch party coming baby
 
I ordered my Collectors Edition and got my confirmation email! So Stoked!!
 
why can I not find the collectors edition at BT or kalahari? or is it too early for my brain to function correctly?
 
they both had limited time CE's, so not sure if they will do it again closer to release.

I am really hoping my CE with Kalahari does not fall through because then I will be p'd.
 
Well, about a month and a half ago a friend of mine was also looking for a CE copy. He contacted a few guys including BT Games and they all said they have no CE copies left and they don't think the supplier will get any as there was only a certain number allocated to SA

So you guys were kinda sleeping for a long time...

@Off-The-Chart As I understand it, Megarom has allocated a specific number of CE copies and that was passed on to the stores to reserve for clients on pre-order. Unless a major screw-up occurs we should be fine :)

Looks like its going to be heavy expensive thou
