Its obvious that I'm the only one not playing StarCraftII. Well my local BTGames was glad to sell something else than StarCraftII today when I went to get my BFBC.
 
Digital Download Version = 59.99 EUR = 570.985 ZAR

Fark that! Bring on the pirate version! :D
 
Ordered from Amazon.co.uk, waiting for it to arrive... :(

Why? I picked mine up this morning from a certain online store. They were even selling the collectors editions. And at roughly the same price as UK/US stores.

Where is the option for "I have my copy, but went into work/school and will play afterwards"?
 
-rollseyes- I have to agree however with the get a pirate version first and see how it is option, then if you like it buy it. That's a terrible amount of money to waste of a game that you may or may not like.
 
Picked up mine...worth it. I own 2 games now...SC BroodWars and SC2.

Can you ladder with a pirate copy - i would doubt it. Since beta (6months) they have not been able to crack the net auth code?! Would be nice for LAN tho!

There are also free passes floating around. So you can download the game (7Gb) and play for x amount of hours or x amount of games with your pass.
 
Going to absolutely wet myself if this is as big a disappointment as MW2 was. After all the hype this game has generated, it has an awful lot to live up to. But almost R600 for a PC game?? Insane, no matter how good it is.

R460. But yes, its still a lot of simoleons
 
I can't wait to get mine ... but will have to wait for it later in the year when finances are sorted :(

R460 for a game like StarCraft is a pittance. I mean I had hours of fun with WarCraft 3 (and that's excluding DotA). The tools in the map editor will make the possibilities practically limitless. If anyone has ever seen the NWN modding community then you'll know what I'm talking about. The fact that with this editor you can make side-scrolling, FPS, top down fighters... wow...
 
Take2 only deliver my standard edition and brother's collection edition tomorrow as I paid via eft which takes a day to clear and apparently weekend doesn't count. I did take thursday and friday off though to squash Zerg :D

Guy at work today got his copy delivered to the office and looks so purrrrty. The I (heart) SCII stickers are actually quite awesome.

Made me think I should've rather paid with me credit card.

Sigh.
