I don't care about that plastic gun that UK had. I thought Saint Row's 2 CE is far more better. Plus I rarely go for any other CE or LE or whatever that is not in a steelbook or metal case.

metal cases are nice, and they're definitely what go me into collecting in the first place, but there are a lot of other really nice cases out there too.

Bioshock and Forza 2... some of my favorite CE cases and neither of them are metal.

one of my sexiest looking DVD box sets is for Speed Grapher, no metal but it's awesome none the less...














and I happened to already have pictures of it online, it's not like I took them just for this

ok.. so I was thinking about this and I was bored, so I grabbed your list of CEs from the other thread

PAL exclusive - Dead Rising ~ (Steelbook case)
PAL exclusive - Iron Man (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
PAL exclusive - Narnia: Prince Caspian (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
PAL exclusive - Kane & Lynch: Dead Men (CE) ~ (DigiPak)

PAL is Better - Battlefield Bad Company: Gold Edition (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
PAL is better - Alone In The Dark (CE) ~ (Box set)
PAL is better - Prince Of Persia (LE) ~ (Steelbook case) (Not shown)
PAL is better - John Woo Presents Stranglehold (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)

Different - based on preference
- Brothers In Arms: Hells Highway (CE) ~ (Steelbook case) - PAL gets steelbook, US gets TIN
- Saints Row II (CE) ~ ('Gun pack') - PAL gets gun case, US gets Tin
- Devil May Cry IV (CE) ~ (Steelbook case) - US gets extra video dvd but it also costs more
- Soul Calibur IV (CE) ~ (Steelbook case) - PAL gets bonus Steel Book, US gets TIN and T-shirt


no difference - Lost Planet (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
no difference - Perfect Dark: Zero (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
No difference - Gears Of War II (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
No difference - Clive Barker's Jericho (CE) ~ (Steelbook case)
no difference - Transformers The Game: Cybertron Edition (CE) ~ (Cardboard slipcase)
no difference - Call Of Duty IV: Modern Warfare (CE) ~ (Cardboard box set)
no difference - Forza Motorsport II (CE) ~ (Box with plastic slipcase)
no difference - Gears Of War (CE) ~ (Jumbo steel case)
no difference - The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (CE) ~ (Cardboard DigiPak case)
no difference - Viva Pinata (CE) ~ (Moulded plastic case)
no difference - Bioshock (CE) ~ (Box set with Big Daddy figurine)
no difference - Call Of Duty: World At War (CE) ~ (Box set with canteen)
no difference - Fallout III (CE) ~ (Lunchbox set)
no difference - GTA IV (CE) ~ (Box set with bag, soundtrack, & metal safe-case etc)
no difference - Halo 3: Legendary Edition ~ (Limited edition Spartan Helmet set)

----

the few that are different and based on preference, I'd personally take a SteelBook over a Tin any day of the week, DMC4 is still IMO the only US CE that I'd rather have over the PAL release

The PAL CE of SFIV discards the soundtrack in favor for an additional figure. Also, the PAL PS3 version doesn't have the anime movie on BluRay, but on some kind of specially-encoded DVD that only works with your PS3, similar to the Xbox 360 version.
I decided to import my copy from the US.
