Haha. You've probably posted in the wrong section too http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
Was there not a CD-ROM release ? If you think Far Cry is a big one...Check out the DVD Edition of UT2004...And that damn thing is 5,329MB (5.3GB) to install !

CD = USA only I think
DVD = Everywhere else

Not sure but that seems to be how it is :/

Here in Belgium we got the choice between the 5 CD-version or the DVD-version. The only difference was the language of the cover: the CD had a Dutch cover and the DVD had a French cover (and option to install in French I guess).

I heard somewhere that the French version is really short...Jack gives up as soon as he reaches the island http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Yes all you foreigners....It's on 5 CD's here in the US...they come packaged in a very neat little jewel case.. I thought this issue was moot by now?
