IIRC, the same date as in the US, but knowing me this is completely wrong.

EDIT: Heh Tal, great double post there, you're still too slow, tho!

Up to 1 month after the initial release date, as usual. So by the end of June if they stick to the May 28 release date for USA.

I've found a company that imports US games in the UK. I'll keep you posted as to the avilability of IWD2 from them.

I ain't waiting if I can avoid it!

May 28th is excellent timing.

I'm just wondering how much of IwD1 will be in it. I've seen the Kuldahar Pass screenshots, and the Dragon's Eye shots. God Almighty if they remade IwD1 with the new engine.

I'd have to drop out of school...

Hmm, as far as I know, the engine is still the same.....

IWD2 has been in development since summer last year.

Update to UK release date.

I've just seen the projected release date for the UK version on Amazon: July 26.

Either they get it late or we're being maltreated! 2 months to repackage and change some minor spelling? C'mon!

US version for me then I should think. Still to be given a UK price, but I'll up-date when I have it.

I must advise you to skip US version.

US version will probably be "upgraded" when European distribution starts. That's those months of waiting.
Upgraded means entries in override folder, which means removal of some bugs (if not all) from US version.

And you don't wan't to test bugs like buyers in US, right?

I suppose you have a very fair point there.

I was always wondering why my versions never seemed to have half or any of the reported bugs. ;) Even if I bought them on UK release.

Two months waiting or two months frustration? I suppose that's the trade-off.
