Starcraft 2 digital version now available at Battle.net [UPDATE]

Costs 60€ in Europe. Costs as much as a console title only this is the digital version. I guess I’ll just wait until the price drops to a reasonable amount of money. Amazon has a boxed version for 40€ and I don’t really get it why they set the price so high for a download. See, no transport and manufacturing costs and yet the digital version costs as much (or even more) than the retail box. This, friend, is a rip off. Anyway click here to buy it now.

UPDATE

The Collector’s Edition at Amazon UK costs 59£ (70€) while at Amazon DE the same box costs 86€. People in the UK: Don’t buy the digital download. Buy the Collector’s Box and get all these:

  • The Art of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, a 176-page book featuring artwork from the game
  • An exclusive 2GB USB flash drive replica of Jim Raynor’s dog tag, which comes preloaded with the original StarCraft and the StarCraft: Brood War expansion set
  • A behind-the-scenes DVD containing over an hour of developer interviews, cinematics with director’s commentary, and more
  • The official StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty soundtrack CD, containing 14 epic tracks from the game along with exclusive bonus tracks
  • StarCraft comic book issue #0, a prequel to the comic series
  • A World of Warcraft mini Thor in-game pet that can be applied to all World of Warcraft characters on a single Battle.net account
  • Exclusive Battle.net downloadable content, including special portraits for your Battle.net profile, decals to customize your units in-game, and a visually unique version of the terran Thor unit

UPDATE 2

You can buy the CD-Key for 38€ from ibay24.
