    Ok, cool. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking a button for it, I get irked at myself with silly grammatical errors like "I fear that is how likely is."

    Why the heck hasn't someone from CA cleared all this up. They supposedly check the Org and Center and this is a non-spoiler question as to how they get to take my money. The release of this game has to be one of the worst major releases in the history of gaming, especially in the last 10 years. I get that they want to have tons of different editions to get deals with different suppliers but they should at least explain the options to the consumer. Right now I am only going to pay 49.99 but if they simply clarify things in one clear post on the Org they will get another 20 bucks. And I am sure I am not the only one who is confused.

    Can anyone think of a reason why they would not clear things up for us?

    My guess would involve something that rhymes with Mega. It can vary greatly based upon what kind of publishing and distribution deal they have set up with CA, but it may well be something completely out of CA's hands.

    Ho-oh, a French joke. :P

    CA only makes the game, the major distribution stuff is all Sega.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I understand it is out of CA's hands but that doesn't mean they are out of the loop. I have tried contacting Best Buy and Sega but have gotten no clear response.

    Mega doesn't really rhyme with sega, since the accent is on the first syllable, this would be a feminine rhyme, but the first vowels don't match.

    At first glance, you would have thought. However, when they are spoken similar to this -

    Meg-a Sey-ga

    Right Sir Beane, but not all of us are from the UK so that isn't helpful at all to us.
