Congrats! AJE/BOR/PW have consumed many hours of my gaming time. Well worth the investment! [8D]

I'm so gonna get the Hannibal dlc. Aje is great

"Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945" is an incredible game! [&o] It's not for the faint hearted, [X(] a advanced game that you have to spend some time on learning but it is well worth it if you like WWII, East Front, strategic game play. This is the first this game has been on the "Deal of the Week"! Great savings, jump on it!! [:)]

So much for the policy of not putting the premium games on big discounts. Seems like the last remnants of the old Matrix have been swept away, or something. [&:]

Still, those without the game need to jump on this deal. Any new guys reading this, buy it too.. it's surprisingly accessible despite t6he mega-game tag, and you won't find a better wargame.

Matrix/Slitherine are one of the best publisher/creators in the PC war game business and it is a great game! [:)]

Actually, we've done discounts on big games before, just not soon after release. War in the East was released four years ago in 2010 and has had two expansions. It seemed about time for a special sale.

Any chance the expansions themselves could go on sale? Please?

No IPad for me, although a did receive a Galaxy Note (Android) recently. I'm looking forward to next week's "Deal of the Week" for a PC game offering! [:)]

Command Ops up next please, not been on deal of the week for over 12 months

I hate this game. No supply properly represented. No eastern front feel. pro soviet to the core. Biggest disappointment that I have had in a game. I would have forgot it long ago except I payed full price at release. All of its awards are rubbish.

Ouch.

This week "Crown of Glory: Emperors Edition" is a great game! I picked it up when it was offered in the first few weeks of "Deal of the Week" last year. There are still quite a few titles that have not been on sale yet for the "Deal of the Week" [:(], I hope we see some of those in the upcoming weeks. If you would like a list of titles that have not been offered yet, I would gladly submit them to you! [:)]

This week "Korsun Pocket" a great operational strategy game on a great battle on the East Front. I bought this game back in 2003 at Fry's Electronic's, back when you could visit a store to buy your games and meet some great gamers! [:D] (boy, I sure miss that [:(]). I haven't play it in a long time but what I remember I enjoyed...highly recommended and really on the cheap! [:)]

Patrick

Bought Korsun Pocket,tells me I need direct play for quick start to run,I install,and the game will still not run.I have windows 8,what a rip off

No windows 8 is the ripoff not the game as it works on my XP, Vista and Win 7 setups. [:D]

We know how frustrating it is when a game does not run, but if you have problems ask tech support and they'll try and get you sorted. This game was released 11 years ago - long before Windows 8 was conceived so obviously there can be issues. I'm not sure how it can be considered a rip off as your computer does not meet the system requirements but we'll still support you and do what we can, just contact support.

Here is the info from the games page:

Product Requirements :
Win 98, Win 2000, Win XP, Vista, 7
PII 450 Mhz CPU
128 Mb RAM
DX 8.1 or later
8Mb Video RAM/ 16 bit color
DX 8.0 compatible sound card
8 x CD-ROM
400 Mb Free Hard Drive Space
