I'll make sure to pick it up then. I have to visit a gamestore soon anyways to get Guitar Hero: World Tour, so we can rock with the entire office

Noted.

Dawn of War 2 should be coming out in Feb, and it'll be made by the same developer that made CoH.

If you do buy CoH, just be careful with the patching process.

I bought some form of CoH...i think it might be for online playing only...after installed it, it wanted to update before i could play it, the update took ~ 1 hour, after that update i was asked to install another that took another while longer, then anohter update was required, then another....i think all in all about 7 updates before i could play it, but it took so long to get it updated i no longer had any time left to play it

You are right, updating CoH might be one of the most user-unfriendly installs of recent history.

For those people that don't have the spare time or that are too lazy to go to the store, Steam has it for 10 euros. They have a pretty weird pricing scheme nowadays, so it's $10 as well... until december it'd have been $10 for us Europeans as well, making it something like... 2 euros.

Anyway, the upside of steam is that it patches the game automatically.

Picked up Company of Heroes/CoH:Opposing Fronts/CivCity Rome for 10euros altogether at Intertoys.

Installing now

How seemingly simple things can turn out difficult.

Start install, cd key not valid (4 chars to short). Back to store and change. New copy has same issue. Call THQ, get number from distributor, they email a new code. I have to say the all were extremely friendly and the code was mailed in a matter of secs. But a lot of hassle for a 3,33 euro game

Haha!

So how about it? Managed to install all the 9000 patches? If you're up to it we could play a 1v1 or a 2v2 coop against the CPU

Let me know if you think Civcity: Rome is any good. It has had such bad reviews that I've passed on it.
