yea it has a paypal option on GoGamer.

I finally got it to accept my card..cancelling EB games order..its BULLCrap the way they keep changing dates.. I understand why they prob are doing it so the U.S. release has 2 patches worth of fixes ect but anyway...they should be upfront about it instead of this.

Yeah, I called EB as well since they said it should be in today. Guy said that it's still not there even though the date says today. Told me to call back tomorrow for a update. -sigh- This is getting really old...

Anyone know if Pre-Order refunds are cash or for store credit?...

I'm gonna go post a thread... You all should join - should be fun.

I also canceled and went with GoGamer
I got it and played since yesterday

Screw ebgames, lately they've been heavily leaning on console games anyway. Little by little they're starting to ignore pc games, except the usual heavy hitters

there enlight forums and if you want to get somthing done atlest post a reply there! EGOSOFT HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE SHIPPING DATES!

Thanks for the link. I posted my 2 cents worth there. I wish everyone would post a message to their forum also asking for an answer for the North American release.

I gave up on EB for X3. They will continue to be the first place I look for ordering US games online, but I grew tired of waiting for the manufacturer to ship to EB and other US retailers. I cancelled my EB order and ordered the import copy from gogamer. I expect it tomorrow or Thursday at the latest.

I got cash back on my cancelled pre-order for X3. But that was at Gamestop.

I just got an email from Newegg saying that my pre-order will be shipping in 24 to 48 hours. That's kinda weird because when I checked on it yesterday the game wasn't even listed anymore!

I'll let you all know if I hear anything more.

Another problem is those of us who don't have enough scratch to buy a DVD player for our computers are stuck with CD-ROM and have to wait for it to be given to us in 6 CDs. I say if a game is going to be delayed, fine, but don't keep pushing the day one day at a time, make it to like 11/31 or some later date then have everyone pleasantly surprised when or if it comes earlier than that instead of causing everyone frustration after frustration by making people call every single day to see if this game has come in yet.

I just posted this on another thread, but thought I'd repeat it here:

I just got an email from Newegg saying that my pre-order would be shipping in 24-48 hours. I find this rather odd, because when I checked yesterday the game wasn't even listed anymore! I do have a lot of faith in them, as I have done a lot of business with Newegg; so I hope they are right!

I'll let you know what else I hear from them.

Not 6 CDs bro, 7.

I got fed with the horrible way Gamestop and EBgames was handling the info on this game (Gamestop had 3 different versions of when it was releasing at one point). Today I went to gogamer.com and decided to just buy it from them and just paid the extra couple bucks to get overnight shipping so it will be here tomorrow afternoon. I suggest anyone else who is fed up with this crap do the same if you still want the game.

Egosoft should be pissed with Enlight and Enlight should be at least explaining to people why they are pushing things back. It's just common practice to tell you customers why they aren't getting what they pre-ordered in a timely fashion.

Man, I'm gonna have to change CDs faster than my shorts during a monster movie marathon

I ordered mine through gogamer.com yesterday and got my copy today. It is the US version (6 disks) and it came with a tee shirt!

EB games SUCKS! I will never order through them! I told them if they cannot be honest about the shipping date, then they should not post one at all!!!

SpatryX · Post by **SpatryX** » Wed, 9. Nov 05, 00:01

If you are in a hurry to get a hold of this game order it through GoGamer.com I ordered mine yesterday and opted for fedex overnight and got mine this morning with a free teeshirt!

This version is the US version on 6 disks, and yes, it uses starforce. Hopefully egosoft will release a nocd patch for us registered users like they did with X2. Whenever I am not playing X3 and I want to use my dvd burner I have to uninstall starforce otherwise it does not work!

I just bought my copy at Best Buy today for $39.99. The first store I went too didnt have any and they where scheduled to have them in stock tommorow. But the employee looked it up and another store had 9 copies. So I went there and didnt see them on the shelf. So I asked an employee and he went to the back and got them out. I got the first copy right out of the shipping box

I have lost count of the date changes at gamestop they claimed that no question it would be in store today... needless to say I am posting so I am not playing so I don't have it yet.

I ask the guy and he says he wouldn't blame me if I got it someplace else... I said to him that I would if I didn't have to work like most adults and I wondered why a company that has my business on a regular basis wouldn't be more helpfull in order to keep me as a client.

Oh well this is rather frustrating I am not holding my breath shrug
