The pre-order CD contains:
Shadowbane Desktop Wallpaper
A Shadowbane Screensaver
A Shadowbane Video “Trailer”
A one-time-use promotional code to unlock three Shadowbane Restricted Races: Minotaur, Aracoix, and Centaur.
YES, for a mere 10 American dollars (refunded when you claim the actual title, of course), you too can be a minotaur the instant Shadowbane goes live. This is an outright betrayl of anyone who ever wasted time anticipating Shadowbane. What was supposed to take months of effort now costs literally nothing. I distinctly recall devs saying that it would be along time before anyone say minotaurs and birdmen running about. Now the "secret" races are a marketing ploy.
