yeah, you would think that there would at least be some general information about the game in a box that has the original game plus all of the expansions. I think I got a poster I will never hang, a card to refer a friend to play, a card showing the wrong information about how to redeem the card game rewards, game discs, and a "book" that essentially listed the credits for the game. Also, you apparently cannot use these discs to install only the expansion. I bought the last expansion like this (came with the prior software), and both of them installed the game IN FULL. I had wondered where all of my HD space went on that drive, and it appears Sony was trying to get away with my underpants.Dregor Thule wrote:Used to be that shit like the manuals and maps that came with games were all a part of the experience. Nowadays you're lucky to even get the instructions that allow someone who can't even boil water to install the game.

Re: Downloads?
Speaking of reasons to get the boxed versions, they used to put some decent add-ins into the box back in the day.
I still have my Firiona Vie statue from the Kunark expansion!

Hot! I bring it in the shower with me.
It's 6"+ tall. Not bad for no extra charge. I think the statues were limited to the first batch delivered to the stores though.
Side note: I'll take the same picture with the new digital camera I get sometime next month and compare the pics on the image forum.

Think it's worth trying to re-establish my old station account before I buy/install this puppy in case the urge hits to log on old Ashur in EQ1 again, or is it best to let the dead rest in peace? ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/wink.gif)

Re: Downloads?
It definitely is. You get a special title (of Veeshan), an in-game painting or two to put in your house, and yes, you can take EQ1 out for a spin if you desperately want to be reminded why you don't play it anymoreAshur wrote:Think it's worth trying to re-establish my old station account before I buy/install this puppy in case the urge hits to log on old Ashur in EQ1 again, or is it best to let the dead rest in peace?
