Morrowind - Where did you get yours?

I bought my Xbox GOTY discs used off Amazon a few months ago.

I forgot exactly where I bought my first copy back in 2002 but it was the original Collectors Edition...with all the extra goodies. I bought Tribunal and Bloodmoon as soon as they were released in the original boxes.
Then I bought another Morrowind GoTY edition because my original Morrowind disc got funky and I needed another one. I have never used the Tribunal or Bloodmoon discs that came with the GoTY edition.

Do you still have your pewter Ordinator figurine, Aquan? I've got mine here on my desk. I'm such an Elder Scrolls geek it's kind of pathetic...

Me too... It's typically right on the desk....http://www.flickr.com/photos/25411109@N05/5612365993/sizes/l/in/photostream/ was set up but yes...sometimes when it's really late I'll look at the little bastard and I'll swear I hear him say "We're watching you....scum."

Wow, that's a great photograph. Those letters really bring out an oriental influence in the armor. Very nice!

I pre-ordered http://www.elderscrolls.com/community/collectors-edition/ (first game I ever pre-ordered) and thanks to a mess-up I was one of the very first in Sweden to get it (the nordic shipping got stuck in the danish customs for a while).
Yeah, that's one thing I miss with the 90s, back then large manuals were the norm. Nowdays you just get a 4 page pamplet, if you're lucky.

I bought it in a random store because my mother let me pick a game. I picked Morrowind because I liked the cover.

Polish Vanilla back in mid-2005
Polish GOTY in early 2007, I think.
English GOTY in late 2012.

All PC, DVD boxes, first two new form shop, and the last one used. Cost of them all (together) ~20 USD.

The ordinator figurine that came with my collector's edition still sits in front of my computer screen--right next to the septim that came with Oblivion.

Originaly I bought my game, in a jewel box + 2 addons in seperate casings, nearly 8 years ago and fell out from the real world for quite a time . I gave the boxes to a friend and they were lost to me. Recently I bought the GOTY edition on Steam and i'm happy as HELL I just wish that one day i can revisit Vvardenfell, even if half of it lies in ruins...Damn Argonians

Best Buy. It is really the only store in town that has a decent game selection other than Target, which ours is not that great...

Got it for $20, IIRC. GOTY edition by the way

I voted "Other" because... all 3. Well, sort of. I first bought Morrowind on the XBOX way back before GotY edition was even out, and so lacked the expansions. Then, GotY came out and I acquired it. I've torrented the game a couple times over the years since and played it on PC, but I finally just got a legitimate copy a couple of days ago, because Bethesda deserves it and it's such an amazing game.

You should have added more options. I got mine first at Wal-mart in the year 2004 A.D for 9.99$ (platinum hits) (original version) (xbox) .. i had blast with this game i fell in love with it right away. Best Elder Scrolls ever. Nothing will change it and no will ever no matter what you say. So i stayed like that for about 2 years non-stop playing back then i was like 13 years old. Then in 2006 A.D .. .. i got the ..GOTY (Xbox) from Amazon used for 19.99$ best time evar !!! I had both add-ons .. i was going in a trip .. lol Then at around 2010 A.D i got it for PC (GOTY) (Steam) .. and that day i died with a big smile and i felt so happy. Now i had the option to use Mods, Graphics, Resolution. God it was paradise.

I will never forget that day ..

And that's pretty much also the story of how i became a big fan of the Elder Scrolls.

I won my first Morrowind in fantasy magazine quiz many years ago. There was just a simple question for which I answered by mobile phone and they luckily drew me (and few other people). Besides Morrowind, I won Neverwinter Nights. Both games were quite new then, so it was great surprise And I really appreciate that edition, beacuse it was wrapped in big, solid paperboard boxes. After all these years there are no damages on it.

Then 2,3 (maybe 4?) years later I bought gold edition with Tribunal and Bloodmoon. There was a nice map of Vvarednfell and Solstheim(I love it).

I took it by my poor mobile phone http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8707/zdjecie1219.jpg

Anyway, it is almost the same like this one: http://vvardenfell.w.interia.pl/mapa/mapa.htm (Vvardenfell) and that: http://www.imperial-library.info/content/solstheim-map-official (Solstheim). I have both lands on one map and on reverse there is Mournhold map. Mountains, forests, seas, provinces and few names which can be translated (like Fort Frostmoth, Sanctus Shrine, Ghostgate and so on ) are in polish (my language).

Sorry, I didn't rotate it, but now you know how it looks like in general.

PS I keep my map in card sleeve
