It's the same vice versa, comparing Germany to the US. Since Chessmaster 9000, there is no box&docs conversion anymore, to german language. Ubi Soft does NOT distribute CM there, the same way they do distribute a lot of pc games. Only software specialists have imported it, probably having to take more efforts than usual to obtain it. It's NOWHERE on the shelves in the typical software and computer shops (the last one was CM8000 years ago). There are lots of other flight simulations, but Ubi distributes their's everywhere. There are lots of games from other distributors of any type, and Ubi soft sells their's as well. Why not Chessmaster, which is a major product of it's type?? The potential of the King engine is somewhat wasted, when approx. 50% of the market are disregarded. Steve
