1. That is an awesome Deal!

The games are delivered via steam though, so make sure to get Egosoft's no-steam.exe and the plugin manager so you can have a lot of fun with the various mods out there for the games. Egosoft is very good about eventually releasing DRM removal patches for their product after a few months, and steam has a nasty habit of trashing "reinstalling" files for X3 which can make mods non functional.

Also don't forget to download the bonus package from the Egosoft site for a additional bunch of nice scripts.

Probably my favorite of the series is X3 Albion Prelude with the bailout and salvage mods, although the XRM rebalance mod is quite good but a bit on the massive side.
