Awards. I guess it was and is just that good. Not bothered with it myself. Price. But it does go on sale from time to time. Xmas is coming up. ;)
"The editors of Computer Gaming World named Battles in Normandy the 2004 "War Game of the Year". They wrote, "This operational-level look at the Normandy campaign is probably the best war game on the market and is a must-have for any war gamer's collection." The game was the winner of the Best 20th Century+ PC Game Charles Roberts Award in 2004."

I would happily pay three times that amount for a revamped Steel Panthers.

$320 electric bill
$250 AT&T
$140 TV related
$400 gas
that's just the starting of the list...

But I'm coming here to complain about $40 over a game I love. I spend more on Pizza + tip.
