Can't see America being left out on this one. They could have done so much more though. A steel-book would have been good with a figure but the extras on offer are just standard stuff. Little disappointed to be fair, just waiting to see what the US gets to decide where to buy from, or there is always Japan....:think:

did Japan get a CE? I thought they just got the "Lightning Edition" Console bundle...

I also am disappointed, especially considering what you get for the price.

a SteelBook like they did with FFXII would be best IMO.

I know Japan are getting a limited edition soundtrack released next week & they also got the console. I'm just waiting for them to announce something special. Maybe I've got my hopes up through disappointment of the lack of quality on offer with the European collectors edition.
