Amazon is not a reliable source for number of items sold as it is percentages compared to other similar items.

For example, if you are to type a search ESPIONAGE, on a good day, my book will appear as #10 or less--I can guarantee you, I'm not getting rich.

Default Pre-ordered.

Its possible that I will waste money--but I pre-ordered two weeks ago. Looking forward to seeing if it will work on my system. It will at least give me an excuse to buy a new computer. If I whine enough maybe my darling will let me.

I ordered for two reasons --first because I enjoy subsims---and they are far and few between. The SH series has been to my mind the most successful, and I might need a new computer to run to latest.

Second I wanted to support subsim and have an excuse to buy a new computer.

Hmmm! I think I see a theme developing in this post.

Just ordered, finally became available.

Does that make me a martyr?

*and some bucks to Neal because I can't order through Amazon. Can't get enough of that "thanks mate" picture.

A breath of fresh air in the usual thread that started out promising and turned into the SOS, different day thread about DRM and how Ubi is screwing you.

What's done is done sir! My game is ordered. I watched yet another new video yesterday and the game looks fantastic. I'm afraid a lot will miss out in the beginning because of DRM. We will see what happens with DRM. For me, I have a stable connection and have other things larger in life to worry about than DRM. To each their own!

I am not as afraid of the DRM as I am of an unfinished product. Though SH4 turned into a great game, early on it was a lot of work with mods, then a new patch, then re-installing mods that were updated as a result of the patch

This time around I will wait. I will eventually get the game, the SH series has always been a favorite of mine.
