Final Fantasy Xiii-2 Crystal and Collector's Edition announced

[Fitzgera1d]

So does anyone have an extra copy of ffxiii-2 for ps3 that's SEALED? Please let me know as I was disappointed in buying a couple of unsealed ones. Yes, im a little finicky with these things. Judge me if you will as i am saddened either way.

Fitzgera1d, since there is no official such thing as a sealed version for AUSTRALIA, it won't have a detremential effect, if it is clearly maked australian version with the warning decals, granted the UK version will be more desireable, but no 1 can negate the value based on the australian edition because yours aussie version is unsealed, since a sealed version "never existed"

You are technically correct Twisted, but there also happens to be no "real" Australian version either as they are all EU versions...originally.

What EB did was unseal the package and just placed the Australian ratings sticker on the slip cover of the outer box [to cover the PEGI ratings], but the game case is still an EU version because the ratings decal printed is PEGI [which was left sealed inside the package]. What EB could have done to amend this was if they re-shrink wrap it and perhaps also leave a note to inform you of they did??]

If they're not going to make copies of the packaging specifically for Australia, they could have had the decency to repackage it before sending it out to customers/retail stores. /rant

I know it's a bit off-topic but didn't one of the big American retailers open up all the editions of . . .Deus Ex HR CE, I think it was . . .to take some DLC out. Presumably all those who ordered it from there got an unsealed copy.

Bloody disgrace

Fitzgera1d, i know that BestBuy has the ability to re-shrink wrap games, and one time i was at Gamestop, and i was buying a "new" game, and the box was unsealed, so i asked for a sealed copy, and they said.."this is our last one"..but,.."i can shrink wrap this for you, we have a machine in the back, and it's pretty quick and easy once i set it up"....so i'm wondering if this "shrink wrapping machine"..is in the back of every gamestop store?..maybe if we asked nicely ..they could do us a small favor, and reshrink wrap our Aussie editions and at least we'd feel better . and pretend it's the real deal

i have one more final fantasy coming in... hopefully its perfect or near... that will be for sale though...

Yes wasn't sure it was the CE but it was Gamestop who open up all the Deus Ex to remove a free trial of their rival company and then for those who pre-order it they try to label the game as "new"

Also I have a question if I play the UK FF XIII-2 and use the UK DLC pre-order code for it on a US PS3/PSN account would it still work? Also if I buy a US DLC for FF XIII-2 would it work on a UK FF XIII-2?

I'm not sure how it works on PSN, but i tried to reedem my XBL code on my European console, on my American account and it didn't want to go through. I had to make an European account. So even if it does work, chances are you will still need to make an European account and download it from the store there.

PAL DLC code = Requires a PAL region PSN. Either use a UK or Australia PSN, codes will work on almost any PAL PSN unless otherwise stated.

US DLC code = US game disc only, it will not work for PAL game disc unfortunately.

Aw dam I wanted to keep my US FF XIII-2 sealed too because I was planning to use my code from the UK FF XIII-2 and play that one =S. I guess I might have to ask someone to trade codes or buy the others x_x
