    Thats an absolute steal especially considering that the game is all patched up with direct x 11 support.

    Standard or enhanced edition? I assume this is only for Amazon US and not elsewhere?

    It was for standard edition, but the price jumped back up to 39. Don't know if it's US only. US Boxed copies for Standard and Limited are 36 and 39 dollars respectively.

    A shame then, I'm looking for the limited edition with the extra faction but that will have to wait it seems.
