Are "World at War" and "World at War: A World Devided" different games?

Is the difference so big that you would buy a new digital version of "A World Divided" over a very cheap used boxed version of "World at War" ? From what it says in the catalog i see not many differences.

Depends.[;)]
Having played both, but not very recently, I'd say the first game is a pretty good indicator of if you'll want the second. Battle animations are missing from the second game, and IMHO they should have been made optional, even if they were pretty humble affairs.
The second version has several improvements to the dip/research area. The first game is good on it's own, so for a bargain price it's a good way to see if the system appeals to you. I think either choice is a decent beer and pretzels global war game.
In short, if you don't like one you won't like two, and if you like one I'd wait for two to go on sale before purchasing (like I did).
