TOAWIII vs COW - Barre - 05-30-2008

Hello all,

I ordered the Matrix version of TOAW today, it will cost me 60 euros including shipping.

Now are there alot of changes that warrant this high price , 60 euros is a bit much for a game that is not even new but just a bit updated.

What changes can i expect? Im abit forced to buy it since the new version is not compatible with the Talonsoft.

There are probably several posts about this issue but hey im lazy, i dont like to search ;)

Cheers
Barre

1) None

To what Antoni said, I would add this attachment, which tracks the change history. This is much more than an update, as it addresses some playability and realism issues with the prior version. Also, I think in many areas now, the best games are those which keep on improvinging incrementally, rather than the entirely "new" efforts.
