Yeah, a ripoff! I also bought a jewel-case "Special Edition" of Deus Ex after original had been out less than a year and turned out to be only a few levels too. And I had asked store clerk too if it was full game and he assumed that it was. Should have known the rule to assume makes an ass out of u and me.
Also, Redneck Rampage: Possum Bayou and Redneck Rampage:The Early Years were only half the levels of original game though Early Years had some patch on cd that could unlock rest of levels.
yup they make this for more money like HOMEWORLD : Pirate moon - its a homeworld oem version with 5 maps , or FreeSpace 2 : Collosuss - yet a another oem version that only has 7 levels or the first chapter
well they are more and more Episodic games arround but they do it only in poor countrys split a game into two games and sell them for half the price
