I bought the game from Atari's online sales thing. I'm not in a supported country, so I chose "USA" but it worked like a charm and the download was fast. They don't use a "launcher" like Steam, only a self-downloader that you can delete once you have the game. Just click BUY NOW:

Edit: Note that, by default, it lists some extra charges in order to have the game available for download for two years or some such. I keep backups on my multiple hard drives so I disabled that to save some money.

Alexander or anyone else,

Do you know what version the digital download from Atari is?

D2D is not the best at keeping up to date with patches and from what I've read it'd like to get 1.65 if possible.

Is there any U.S. digital download 1.65 available?

[Al3xand3r]

No clue what version it may be, I'd imagine the same thing Atari sell on disc. patch 1.65 worked fine for me, I don't remember where I downloaded it from but the file name is KB165.exe.

The download itself would be 16b7 or 164... but there is patch 165 already which should work (even as I read/heard some issues)

I would advise Metaboli instead Atari - just my advise.

1.6.5 is an Atari version. (equivalent of 1.7.0). Strange that it's 1.6.5 download 0_o. Patched already?

It is 1.6bf or whatever, but the 1.65 patch does install on top without issue (it specifically says that it's the atari patch).
