It is nice to see them finially get to the NA market. But I already bought Spellforce and all seperate expansions for 80 USD through the UK, the same for Silent Storm and its expansion (similiar to Jagged Alliance series) for about 69 USD thriough UK Ebay, and Gothic 2 Gold expansion (still waiting) for a shit load of money.
The problem is by the time the titles get to the NA market, at least the fans already bought the games (Atari Gothic 2 took a 6 months to a year to release in NA -many people already bought the game from UK). Then these companies think they do not sell well.
Then again, most people do not know how to get these games through the back door. So maybe 90% of people will still buy and enjoy them. They are pretty good.
I wish I could have got them for 20 USD a bundle.
Still waiting on Gothic 2 NotR from Botonland. It has been 25 day since I placed my order. They are so fucking slow for 65 USD I could have just waited unti November to buy the game for 20 USD. This pisses me off to no end.

about time the realesed the so deperately anticipated addon........
gothic is the coolest rpg game ive ever played, it bigger better than anything ive come to play. I used to think Final Fantasy franchise where the best.
but thats childs play compared to gothic, i have 1 and 2, but just to get my hands on the addon, i dont mind another copy of gothic 2.
