    Ah, EB, aka Electronics Bullshit.

    I have had a negative attitude about them after they took at least three months to import Morrowind, even though the game was freely available in other stores throughout the eastern states

    If they are the sole distributers of Viking Invasion, expect the game to take a LOOOOOOOOOONG time to reach our shelves.

    Typical... How much sense does it make to release something on a Monday when most people work or are at school for the coming week?

    Gah.

    Can anyone recommend a good psychiatrist?

    I didn't know it was possible to suffer withdrawal symptoms from something you haven't even used yet...

    Some people say 12th, since the 9th is on Friday...

    I have the pdf with the tech tree for VI with me. I could try to Email it (do not know if it is not too large though, did not check) to first couple people that request it...

    but you have to be from Australia


    [Checked, under 1MB, so it should be fine with my ISP...]

    I thought I read where the government had declared VI to be too violent and was banning it from Australian stores.....
