    [​IMG] My Planescape: Torment finally arrived from an online retailer. However it came in a massive box WITH Fallout 2 and the original Baldur's Gate (which I sadly already have) all for just £10.98!

    Anyone who would like to find out where I bought this private message me, getting 3 games when I only bought one was a real surprise.

    (Tal- I'm not double posting this I just think that more people will read it here... the Planescape: Torment forum has never exactly been a hive of activity has it)

    Was it pirated? If not then what a bargain!

    [​IMG] It is totally irrelevant whether it's a hive of activity or not. You can't post IWD1 topics in the ToB forum just because you feel the IWD1 forum isn't lively enough for you. But in this case since you also got Fallout, this topic fits in here more than the Planescape: Torment forum anyway. Oh, no PM nonsense. Post here where you bought it and what the package's called. (If it's legit, that is.)

    It's was definitely legit. The site is called Gameswire.com and they have the cheapest games I've seen on the net (esp. if you are in U.K.) I just ordered Torment but three games came through, I reckon that it is because they do not have Torment on its own... it's probably akin to trying to buy Monkey Island 2 on it's own. So if somebody wants all three games it's a scoop.

    This is nothing special. I have seen it in shops all over Britain for under a tenner. Nothing special.

    Amazon sells it, but not packaged with Fallout or Baldur's Gate.
    Amazon page
    It costs $14.99, a bit steep compared to the bundles.

    [​IMG] No, they don't sell it any more. The page is still there for used copies, but you can see there's no "buy" button there, so you can't buy a new one.

    I found it at C&B though! Packaged with Baldur's Gate and Fallour 2 for $38...

    It has been updated in the SP Games section, but here's the link anyway: http://www.chipsbits.com/cgi-bin/order.cbi_home?source=84943&add=INTETP.IR

    Iv'e got that box too.......not that big a deal, imo.
     
  10. Soul here. Interplay's official site sells a Dual Jewel set that comes with Planescape: Torment, as well as Soulbringer. (forgive me if the name is wrong). I'd have ordered it myself, but since I live in the great north, the UPS shipping charge is an arm and a leg, so I just wandered bargain bins till I found Torment.
