There it is if you want it.

As many predicted about Rome being released in Europe some time after America, the game has hit the p2p networks and is easily downloadable. I don't think that I shall download it, I've waited this long. And even if I do I still intend to buy it. God help amazon if they don't dispatch it on Friday though, God help them.

 

[Dillinja]

My copy arrives on tuesday, I think. I could just download it now if I wanted to but I won't because I respect that the developers have taken so much time to create a game and they didn't intend it to be downloaded for free. I don't mind giving them my money as I know I will get a lot of enjoyment out of the game.

 

[Loxleyhood]

The Americans are teasing me with pictures though.

90% of the time I always get a game from juarez, mexico before I buy it. If its good I usually buy it. Not to mention the fact you need a purchased copy to play most games online too =)

[Debuffs]

Been playin this for most of the evening.
Damm those Gauls are pestering my borders

 

[HerculesPluto]

hehehe
u need to stomp a mudhole in their candy asses i cant play it too much as the fan on my gfx card has gone bork, so the card is now only passvly cooled (radeon 9800 pro) got side of case off + all fans inside turned up to the max and a big fat quietpc sink + fan on the way hopefully arrives tommorow so i can play the game for more than 3 mins without the feer of the card melting

bloody typical i get hole of 3 games i want to play at the same time and cant really play them properly that call of duty addon and SW battlefront and ofc ROME

least i had rocky legends to mess about with, what a bad ingame fighting system tho, its SO poor compared to fight night, the overall presentation is superb tho, just wish someone at ubisoft wouldve thought about the actual boxing,
