Those planning to purchase Civilization V digitally may want to consider getting the strategy title through Direct2Drive, as* it includes a copy of Civilization III.
It’s D2D’s Digital Deluxe version (http://www.direct2drive.com/Search.aspx?SearchTerm=Sid%20Meier%u2019s%20Civili zation%20V), which also includes the first Double Civilization and Scenario Pack for free, once it’s made available.
The deluxe box also includes a bonus Babylon Civilization with leader Nebuchadnezzar II, a Behind the Scenes at Firaxis with Civilization V video feature, and the game’s soundtrack.
It will run you $59.95 (http://www.direct2drive.com/4/9620/product/Buy-Sid-Meier%E2%80%99s-Civilization-V-Digital-Deluxe-Edition-Download), while the standard version is priced at $49.95.
This is pretty much the same version Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/8930/) is getting, only it includes the Cradle of Civilization Map Pack: Mesopotamia instead of Civ III for the same price.
Nice to know there’s options out there.
Civ V, deluxe and non-deluxe, hits the US on September 21 and the UK on September 24.* A demo for the game is to be released the day it launches (http://www.vg247.com/2010/08/28/civ-v-demo-to-be-released-same-day-as-the-retail-version/) as well.
