if it will be sold as an actual package? Downloading the game is NOT an option for me. Also...is there a manual included or just an online one?

Yes it will be sold as a package. The manual comes in a PDF file in the CD.

We have only 2 copies left.

Are you going to be able to order the DVD case edition like was purchased at Origins?

Yes, from august on. We will keep you updated on this. Waiting for Digital River to staret this service.


so doesn't that mean Digital Download first (later this week hopefully) and a physical product for purchase in August?

From what i understand they are trying to get the download set up and on line sales set up by some time this week. Hopefully that will happen. As for me though my nail biting has ended, either its coming or its not.[>:]

I am hoping for this week. We have had a rough "Fiscal end of year" and for doing such a good job the company has given us a four day weekend. [:D]

So I will have much time play [8D] If only my luck would hold out and they get it up in time

Just to make this clear.

You will be able to also get a physical product from this week on (once WITP is in our store). ONly those that also want it in a box should wait untill we announce that service to be available.

Any chance of this week ordering the digital download & preordering a box copy at the same time (with a combined price)?

Marc -

I presume the "physical product" is a CD in some sort of protective case.

What else comes with the "box" version? Should I really bother to wait? (I've been updating my sound drivers all evening in anticipation... [;)] )

Wait a minute.... what is the difference between "physical copy" and "box copy". Is physical a DVD case with a disc, manual on PDF, and "Box" meaning printed manual. GAH! I Want my WITP and I cant dl it.... *&^*&#^*$(&#^#$*&^#$*()&^$#.

Heh! Good thing we're keeping it "light" regarding the near rampant prodding for this game. Hats off to Matrix for ya patience gents... It's tough to wait, but it must be equally tough knowing you have $$'s out here just WAITING to be spent on ya'll. [8D]

Man, Matrix must not care about making money. If I were them, I would have my staff working around the clock to get this download up and running and boxed CD copies ready for shipping. I just don't get it.

Doh! Wait your turn. Can't you see I want this game. [:)]

Actually I thought I might pass this title up because I never grasped the concept of UV, but all this buzz over WITP has got me to re-examine it. Now I am very intrigued.

Stupid Flanders probably has it already

No, we´re not interested in money, we prefer to sit on the couch and pick our noses [8|]

We worked almost 24/7 the last two weeks to make WITP available for promotion at Origins. Please let us rest a day and then we will get back to work 24/7, okay?
