Its the same sad story in the UK, years ago I could not move for EQ1 sales stands, I do believe though that if they treated the games as 30 day subscription cards though the problem would be solved since old unsold out of date copies of EQ2 would be removed from the shelves when they hit ~£10 or so. At least then EQ2 could
not fail to do better then the B-movie style crud that fills most shelves in the local Game/HMV store, like you I'm puzzled quite why they bother even trying to sell some games :P
Or is this the case already with EQ2 boxes? Right now I just assume each one only offers 30 days play on a new account?
