Default Re: Last CE/LE/SE you purchased or got

Well, maybe its different in the US than other places. I know a lot of people have preordered the CE from places like Gamestop but have no intention of picking it up. In particular as GS offered a bonus % towards trade-ins for it, and with the high price people could trade in a lot of things towards it. They do this and GS certainly can't keep them in their stores -- look how quickly they reduced the prices on Batman AO and SC:Blacklist just to clear some space. This CE is at least twice the size of those. Perhaps the demand will be so much that random people will jump on these right away, but I have a feeling we'll be seeing them drop significantly within a month's time if they don't move. Retailers just don't have the space for something like this.

Also, there's no other exclusive content besides the Statue in this CE really - no steelbook, no DLC, and the artbook is available separately. (Unless you count the "full-size schematic of a titan" but I mean c'mon, really?)

Agreed, in fact I think im going to let my local gamestop store manager know that if he can keep one that doesnt sell in good condition I will pick it up.

Are you sure that its the "Ultimate" edition? Is it for the 360? If so, let me know what store its at - I may be interested. I'm pretty sure they converted those to a USED SKU quite awhile ago, so you should be able to get it for the used price of a regular game now.

Yea its the ultimate and its 60 as far as I know unless its dropped more since ive last been. The box is kind of beat up, they also have blacklist ce as well fairly cheap. Box pretty beat up once again. If I find out dan can only get a limited number of signed ff from the gallery then I will probably pick those up myself lol. When I go in next ill double check and let you know for sure though

Edit: and yes its for the 360

Yeah, at the VERY highest, the Ultimate Edition should be $29.99, but I believe its even cheaper than that. Even their website has it for the $30.

Yeah, I would've grabbed one when they got converted to used SKUs but none of them in my area had stock, even if the game was horrible I really wanted one of these -- they are definitely used though if you're sure your store in MA still has one because its not showing up on the item finder as in-stock on their website.

Okay, well, I've got some things to post on-topic too, so I'll post that a little later. Haven't updated in over a week or so

Right click the image on your computer and click "rotate".

Or did you do this exclusively on your phone? If so most image hosting sites offer a rotate option as well.
