Ya, and you can buy all kinds "attachments" to simulate sexual intercourse on line. No one buys these sex toys, yet they had a billion in sales last year.
If SE IV had more sex in it, think of the sales it would have.

Re: SEIV Deluxe spotted on the shelf
I bought the game at Game Stop a couple of months ago. You're right about the manual not being very substantial...there is not a manual at all; only the CD.
The packaging is not very impressive but I think they tried to avoid misleading new buyers as to the age of the game. I think this release was partly to prepare potential customers for Space Empires V. A customer might think,"Space Empires V?...oh yeah I remember seeing Space Empires IV a while back. This one looks alot better. I'll try it."

Re: SEIV Deluxe spotted on the shelf
Wade's right, Space Empires IV has most likely reached about it's peak in sales by now and everything from here on in is to plant the brand name into brain-meats of unsuspecting folk with real lives and families.
And Atrocities.... uhm.... Why do you know so much about the playboy game and it's attachments? lol

Re: SEIV Deluxe spotted on the shelf
I do block them, now. But only a year or so ago I was using IE and not FF.

Re: SEIV Deluxe spotted on the shelf
I wonder if I formed my own internet store if I could get a dozen copies of SEIV Deluxe at cost... cost being $5.55 a game box.

Re: SEIV Deluxe spotted on the shelf
Locally I spotted it at the Burreau en Gross store (Staples to the rest of Canada) Only 2 copies left on the shelf, so they might have actually sold a few.
When I get the chance I'll check out EB Games. Usually if one store has it the others do too.
