With all the maps and manuals in the DVD box set (something you downloader people won't get which baffles me why someone wouldn't want everything that comes with a DVD version), I think I was intimidated by that. But since W3 got a perfect score at GameSpot, and recently upgraded just about everything in my PC, I was curious how it would play and look on my "new" PC. I am only in the early training tutorial part of it but it looks fantastic and runs fine so far. Okay - am I missing something with these games? After all the work that the developer has done with all the impressive goodies (reminds me of what the Ultimate series from way back when did), why do I have to go into W2 and W3 and manually write down all the keyboard commands? Why isn't there a keyboard layout chart on some nice reference sheet? Maybe there is one on one of the DVDs. -pw
