Here's a first for me.  I got a notice from steam that they are now selling Sacred II.  I decided I prefer using Gamersgate for my digital purchases so I went to them to buy Sacred II.

What do I find when I click on the game link on their site.  A block notice telling me they do not sell to my country.

I emailed their support with the situation and got back the following:

Hi.
We are sorry, but we are not allowed to sell this product to your country - sometimes we are not allowed to sell a product/game to some specific countries. Please do understand that it is not our pleasure. But still you are welcome to download other games at GG.

That is the first time that I've ever been told that they don't sell a game in the USA when other retailers obviously do.  Obviously I've heard of games not being offered in the USA all together, but never heard of one seller saying they can't sell to the USA while other sellers ARE selling to the customers in the USA.

I guess it's time to go steam powered instead of Gamersgate for me.

That is just STOOPID.  I wonder if it is an issues w/ Ascaron and contractual stuff?  Is there a difference between the US and UK release?  Very weird!  Enjoy that title, CB, I know you've been waiting for it!

later,
pat!
