Scour all the second hand video game stores around your locality. I got BfME II Collector's edition for AUD$5 at the 7th store I went to.

It's definitely not worth spending 200 bucks on :p

 

Nobody is making money off of the game anymore. You should just ...get it another way...

Agreed with Mathijs, but MtL... how?! When did you get it?

Yeah, I thought so. I got mine a few weeks after release, £20 Collector's Edition, but since then I've never seen it. You won't find anything in stores now cause even the standard editions are ridiculous. Amazon has used for £30 and new for £70 though, which honestly is cheap nowadays.

You can just torrent the game, it's not really illegal imo because EA doesn't sell it anymore.

I can't really do a torrent, I'll probably have a friend over to help me out. Will mods work with a torrented one? There's a couple mods I want for it.

That depends on the torrent, usually it is just the original game cd/dvd and therefore yes, it will work.


"To know what question we may reasonably propose is in itself a strong evidence of sagacity or intelligence. For if a question be in itself incongruous and begs for uncalled-for answers, it holds, sometimes, besides embarrassing the proposer, the disadvantage to seduce the unguarded listener into giving absurd answers, and we are presented with the ridiculous spectacle of one (as the ancients said) milking the he-goat, and the other holding a sieve beneath."

Ok. I was just making sure because with some other games mods wont work with a torrented copy of the game.
