Legality and company rules are not the same thing. Of course he can legally sell it. Firaxis cannot change the law. Their EULA may have rules against it, but that doesn't change the law. The US courts have ruled time and again that a company cannot use an EULA to override your rights under the...

Awesome, simply awesome. I'm thinking about buying another copy for my daughter for Christmas!

I finally got time this weekend to play my first game of CIV4. It installed and ran flawlessly! I was worried after some of the things I've read. I gotta say the game is incredible, definitely worthy of the Civilization name. And I own every version from the originial DOS one. I really...
