This was the most awesome news ever back in October when I heard about this new game coming out. Have you heard about the founders package for $100 or if you can't afford that the cheap Beta for $40. In the founders package you get the Alpha, Beta, Galactic civilizations 3, and any expansions to the game.
yeah I bought the 100$ packaged... I enjoy supporting games that's not as popular as CoD, BF or blizzards games. scify games has strugled with funding and I drop money on it every time I see a scify game to voice my support. supported nexus 2 even though it got canceled, bought all of the x games, even though the last one is struggling. pre ordered elite dangerous. I even have droped down 2800$ on star citizen.
GalCiv3 will rock the Galaxy!
I hope it will
