According to EBGames.com my order hasn't shipped yet.

PTW got here last year on the day it was released. Too bad they couldn't get things right this time.

I pre-ordered from EB games here in Toronto. I pick it up Thursday.

Jon - what are you going to do with 3 copies. Impress your girlfriends at Christmas?

Taipei, Taiwan. It seems nobody plays Civ3 here... No copy of any edition of Civ3 on the shelf... I pre-ordered from Chips&Bits but nothing changed on their web since C3C released....

Although when PtW came out I had it in my hands before most other places (lack of demand I think).

Futureshop here in Toronto (Eglinton and Leslie area) says they'll have it either tomorrow or Thursday...

although today, they did have the gold edition in...

I also checked some other smaller local merchants, and they all said the same thing.

grrr

Yup, I ordered from Amazon and I'm in the same boat. Products from Amazon usually arrive the day they're released so I have to assume that the delay is the fault of Atari et al.

Mine hasn't shipped yet either, and the Conquest page at Amazon says it ships in 1-2 weeks.

I just received confirmation that Amazon has shipped my order.

But wait, they only shipped the bonus CD. The rest of my order will ship "when available".
