Nice, the DVD sounds just like the one you get with FFX and it just cost the normal price of a PS2 game. Maybe because this one comes in a steel box its $60.

Since i am a FF geek i will be picking up the special edition.
What i dont get is that the strategy guide will also be available in a 'special edition' too.

FF 12 - $50 reg, $60 special
FF 12 guide - $20 reg, $30 special

Thats $90 for me... WOWZERS! :eek: :choc2:

if your spending $50 anyways on the game, then basicly you get the extra stuff for $10 nd thats really not that much.

personally i was mad that North America didnt get the special edition of FF7: AC that Japan did, but it was worth around $300 and probably wouldnt have sold very well in NA.

Those don't really sound like great extras, better than nothing i guess

Yeah, somebody else pre-ordered this for me as a favor, and they got the special edition without asking me... And since it was a favor I couldn't be mad. But the extras don't excite me, and they'll just be on the internet for free within 3 seconds of the game's release.

But now I have the words "COLLECTOR'S EDITION" on the box, and I'm proud to be a fanboy.

There's already a thread about this, but yeah the case looks pretty sweet and it'd be cool to have that other stuff and not feel guilty for downloading it. :D

What's in a special edition guide anyway?

for me is worth the $10 measily dollers to get the special edition. cuz otherwise id just spend $10 on somthing lame like chips and Soda or pizza.

I like shiny things, I'm getting it. Already have it pre-ordered and hope its worth it. It's ten bucks more, but sure whatever, it comes in a steel case! Collectors item it is. Hopefully it is not just any old random steel case.

I don't like the extras much, I'll probably get the regular edition.

You're probably smarter for doing so too. You save an extra ten bucks while people like myself waste for a steel(shiny!) case.
