Spoke too soon. It looks like I have a 800MB patch to DL before I can play.

I might be able to play by 4pm
I assume you bought it from Steam, Captain?
Actually I bought the game and then Megarom burn the installer to DVD for me.

But for us mere mortals, the game is only available to purchase on 5 Feb, right?

well if you want to buy the discs then you will need to wait for BT Games to realise that the game was released today.

Hmmm ... what are the chances they'll actually have it in stock today?

And why can't BT Games move closer to Alberton?

Stuart you will burn in a special hell for that video. ST:TOS is not exactly a stellar example of what Star Trek is capable of.

What a mission that was!!! If it is not people that don't respond, then it is random system drops... hehehehe.. But like you said... atleast the Fleet has now been created...

Makes me wonder though... What has happened to the ever elusive Mr. Norris?

Ah, he pre-ordered with BT Games. We had planned that this weekend I would help boost him but sadly BT games have changed their release date to next week friday. Looks like you and I will have to fight the good fight until then.
