Sure, that will be greatly appreciated. The rest of the world, including Australia, have to wait for another week at least. Get real harsh with the game if you have to. After all the rest of us really wants to know what we are getting... although at this stage I think I'll probably get it regardless of what the reviews say

I was going to get it if Babbages out here had it, but not only did they not have it but they have no record of it coming in, so I guess I'll order it online or something. Does anyone no where low prices for it are?

I got the same thing from my local babbages....Tell them to do a search on "Call to Power" It will come up with both CTP1 and 2....Then they will say..."Gee...It should have been in today! Shipping has been screwy lately, want to reserve a copy..."

Needless to say I did and I hope that they have it in tommorow. I'm going nuts! I bought SMAC this summer because I wanted to try something other than CIV2 and enjoyed it until I realized it wasn't enough for me ( I liked it) And the anticipation for this game is killing me now!

I called my local Electronics Boutique today and was told that they wouldn't be getting CTP2 for at least a week. I was bored so I went over there anyway, and what do you know - there it was, sitting on the front shelf. So now I too have a copy.

Believe it or not, I picked it up last night at EB here in Jackson, MS for $49.99. Usually we're in the 2nd or 3rd wave of shipments as far as new games go. What's more unbelievable is that I only played it for about 10 minutes last night! WOW! Talk about some self-restraint You can bet I'll be hammering it all night after I get off work today though.

10 minutes?!?!?!?

I think that you should seek help immediatly, that kind of self-restraint is counter-productive to our cause!!!!!

I pre-ordered it with Gamestop (online store-front for Babbage's and Software etc) and requested over-night shipping so that I would get it the same day my local store(s) get(s) it. According to the tracking summary it should be delivered today to me at work. w00t. Saves me a trip to the store and ensures me a copy- for 10 bucks extra of course. And even though I imagine the déluge of reviews/comments/critique/praise the game will get in the forums here, I'll post my opinion if you d00ds would like.

I've got an all week 2v2 (with some AI civs for good measure) scheduled next week with 3 of my friends. Wish me/us luck.

Got mine last night. $49.99 at EB. That's what I get for not shopping around...

The good news: I got the last copy, so the game was "sold out" at the store, which shows higher-than-expected popularity.

The bad news: The clerk told me they only got 2 copies.

Also pre-ordered Black & White at the same time...

I couldn't wait for Amazon, so I called around and found that EBX had one copy left. By the time I got there, they had two more in.

Now, let's see if I can work all day at my home office gefore installing it...

I got mine at EB in Seattle, for $45.99. They also reported that they only received two copies. I got copy #1. I wonder why only two?
