I really liked this title back in the day. It was a fun - albeit not so polished, micro sim game. A great game to play while drinking Captain Morgan Private Stock!!!

Last time I played Tropico 2 it hard locked and permenantly froze a bunch of pixels on my LCD. I've been too cowardly to try that again.

Love Tropico. Still have the first and it's expansion on disc, but this deal including 2 and having it on Impulse(I am so sick of digging through discs)  = Buy!

I'll just wait for the new one to come out.

yep, Tropico 3 is coming out pretty soon I think. I still play paradise island from time to time. Probably my favorite city builder type game I've ever played. I could never get into Tropico 2 very much...I just could never...EVER make both my pirates, and captives happy lol

Just had this reccomended to me and for the price my mate paid for it i went looking to purchase. Except i get two different prices, and i dont mean my AUD conversions.

My mate, in the US paid $14.95 for game, yet when i fired up Impulse i get $21.30USD ($26.04AUD)

What gives? Here's the screenshots to show.

My mates....

From my Impulse...

USD 21,30 = EUR 14,99. 1 dollar = 1 euro. Apparently Australia has joined the euro zone.

Ohhh...Well that sucks. Ty dman.

Any help, thoughts..or other musing's SD?

As opposed to you having a defective LCD that happened to crap out while you were playing Tropico?

Seriously - do you understand how computers and monitors work???

Sadly, you don't have provided the screenshot giving the detail of the "*" near the price ...

And that matters how?

The * tells me price set by publisher. Still does not explain why, or why i am being given the Euro rate.

Telling me the what is no good without the why.

So that's why the rum's gone!?

Yes, that is really strange. And since an AUD price of 26.04 doesn't make any sense as a price set by a publisher, something must be screwed on the impulse site.

US price converted to Australian based on an arbitary exchange rate (not sure how often it is updated...)
