I bought a copy of Theatre of War from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Theatre-of-War-DVD-PC-GAME-Authentic-NEW-fromStore_W0QQitemZ320212790515QQihZ011QQcategoryZ62053QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
It says that the supplier is New Era. In checking New Era's site, I couldn't find any mention of Theatre of War. It says that it is completely legal and is not pirated, so then who is the publisher of this version? Maybe someone from Battlefront could answer this?
My main concern is that I'm not going to be able to apply the patch to the game and I'll be stuck with a vanilla copy. Oddly enough the region says US/Canada, but it is from Thailand.
I'm going to ask for a refund if the patch can't be applied. It looked legitimate and I looked at the feedback and no one mentioned patch problems, but because Theatre of War has different companies doing the patches..well I'm thinking this could complicate things. So, any idea if this is legitimate and can the patch be applied?
