Me too... Modded PS1 + Swap Magic for PS2 ! Both work very well to play the US games I have.

I agree with you concerning the "collecting" purpose of the pack. And I'm sure some collectors will be happy with it. No problem.

But I think that the game-discs are a quite poor collecting value. Lots of FF fans already own most of the FF games... What's more in having new copies with a different print on the CDs ? And what about spending 500$ for that ?! That's why I regret the lack of other goodies included.

To me, game-discs are to be played and that's what is coming along with them that makes the "collecting-factor" of a collector edition.

Here, Square-Enix doesn't make any effort... Taking the game-discs with a different art, putting them in white sleeves, adding a poor soundtrack compilation and an (indeed, beautiful) artwork. And there they go: "Come on, FF fans ! It's 500$, kids ! Only 500$ for the finest of FF !!!"

Sorry for bothering all of you with my complaints... But I'm so angry at Square-Enix. I expected much more than that for FF 25th anniversary.

Not sure if its been mentioned but from what i can find out payment is taken when the box is ready to ship

[aizen59]

What do you mean kittychloe ? Guess i didn't get it.

[kittychloe]

Its not upfront payment
Money is taken on dispatch or upto a week before dispatch, like preordering from amazon

[aizen59]

Depends where you buy it i guess. I preordered it and i had to deposit 10k yen. And ill have to pay whats left on the first week of december. But im assuming youll pay on dispatch, atleast nin nin game, for example, do that.

Sorry for the question...but where do you preorder it ??
Because from the square enix shop you can only do that if you are japanese resident .
Thanks

[aizen59]

akiba games, google it, they had some up for preorders, but it might be too late.

[Onyxia]

Holy wow, totally missed out on that. If someone here ends up getting it, I know I'd LOVE to see pictures of it.
.... it should come with a fancy Chocobo statue, ha.

[aizen59]

Whenever i receive it, i'll take & post pictures (should be up near christmas i guess).
