Freelancer arrived in less than 24 hours. I ordered it off from Amazon for a neat 9.99€, complete with manual, game CD (obviously) and complete soundtrack CD. What I noticed is that while the publisher is Microsoft, the re-seller appears to be Ubisoft. I still hate Ubisoft after the milking that they've done out from the Assassin's Creed series, but anyway.
I'll install the game soon enough, and hopefully, with the help of someone, I'll have some fun before digging through it.
While checking italian gaming sources such as tgm.it, I found out that a lot of people knew about Freelancer, while I never heard of it. How is this possible? How did I managed to fall to CCP's 'give me money if you want to play' EVE?
Freelancer is one of the games, other than Mount & Blade and Morrowind that never excited me like this.
