2nd copy of SH III...

patonb · 05-22-08, 05:53 PM

We're allowed to Edited by RDP our own disks here arn't we? I.E. in Canada

Now-a-days, aren't we really just paying for the CD-Key?

Unless, this is really a taboo here

Edited by RDP. Nothing official-legal has been released for older
versions ( we are working on getting clarification on this ) so it is not allowed here.

@ patonb

There are current (newer) copies that have the no-cd-dvd option, as well the d-l version does not require a disc, however as mentioned above, nothing has been released for older versions. Yes it is a little silly, but it is the reality we find ourselves in, so it cannot be discussed here.

@RDP....... Sorry bout that then. I know each country allows different things. What I suggested, doesn't get around anything... But As an International site, I fully understand your/subsims stance on it.

Again, sorry

Not a problem RDP. I know that talking about "nudge nuge, wink wink, say no more" isn't allowed, but I wasn't sure about how I obtained my new copy of the game, which is why I didn't say exactly who I got it from. I went the route the I did for the same reason, slow internet connection (at the time), and amazon.com's refusal to ship to Canada, which I find is a stupid policy on their part. Funny thing is that on Amazon.ca they have the game and the kicker is that in the description of the game, it says it's shipped from the states, and Amazon.com says it won't ship to Canada. Can you figure that one out? Cause I sure can't. edit ***I wonder if I tried to order something else from the store if I'd get the same message? Any of my fellow canuks try that?

I got the same message. That's why I posted this thread in the first place. Anyway I found a couple of places where I can get a second "No Starforce" version of the game.

The newer version of the game I got from Ebay doesn't require you to keep the dvd in the drive any more. Bonus is that it is already updated to 1.4. Downside is no paper manual or foldoutmaps and other goodies that came with the big case version I got when I first started playing the game. Question RDP...am I allowed to say the Edited by RDP Ebay I got the game from in an open forum? Edited by RDP

Hi marees62,

You see the various advertisements here at SUBSIM, they are what help pay the bills to host this site, some of which still advertise SH3. Allowing non-SUBSIM advertisements or links is not permitted, sorry but that is policy here.
