The only version available from PoliticalMachine.com is the $29.95 version. 

The game should be at stores tomorrow or Friday, I'd be just as inclined to just go to the stores and buy a copy there. But the only version that can be downloaded (presently) is the one on Politicalmachine.com (the $29.95 one) and that's only until the boxes arrive, after that, new buyers will get the box but not be able to download it as we're only making it available for download to ensure that those people who pre-ordered the game months ago can at least start playing the game before it's on store shelves.

Once you have download access to the game you can always redownload it.  But we will only be allowing new purchases to download the gmae until we get the boxes in (we're doing this so that people who pre-ordered the game aren't in the position of having been better off just waiting until it was at the store i.e. riot prevention! <g>).

The two versions are the same except for the 29.99 version comes with the operatives kit.
