Different Versions

[Guest MachineDoctor]

I'm curious, does anyone know how many different versions/releases there are for Gen/ZH?

 

Does it simply go by language or does area matter as well?

 

For example, I have the English, USA version. Do the New Zealander's also have this same release because they speak English?

 

Would someone from NZ post the Bar Code # on their box?

In all, there are 9 language versions:

English

Spanish

Italian

French

German: 2 versions, the original version and a modified version (to avoid certain laws). Zero Hour only has the 'modified' version in German.

Korean

Polish

Chinese

Brazilian

The NZ version (EG mine) would most likely be the USA English version, same for Aussie to I guess. Although it does have small sticker on the back saying "For distribution only in New Zealand". Meaning is can't be exported to other countries.

 

I wonder if this works the other way round though. I never paid for games like Emperor, Red Alert 2, Yuri's Revenge, Renegade or Generals. I got copies for free from Westwood/EA and they are all the USA release versions.

I still have 2 spare copies of Generals and 1 YR sitting in my cupboard
