Default Does anybody specialise in current gen variants ?

Apart from Collectors Editions I also collect variants - mainly for PS3. Just wondered if there are any folks here who specialise in variants so i can compare notes.

I assume he means different versions of the same console(s) whether it be regional (PAL vs NTSC etc.), version (I.E. 20 gb phat xbox all the way up to new 320 gb slims), and more importantly limited edition consoles and packages (i.e. GoW xbox or infamous PS3 bundle)

Granted I doubt anyone collects all of those variants but I think that's the general gist of it

Could be wrong of course

No sorry guys, I didn't explain myself very well.

I should have said game variants . . .e.g. an exclusive sleeve or a dlc variant, different cover - that sort of thing.

Obviously all Collectors and Limited Editions etc are variants but i'm mainly concerned with more subtle game variations.

Ah wow total swing and a miss for me then

For some odd reason I thought you were talking about consoles

But yeah people on here most certainly collect different variants of CE's/LE's for the same game

An RPG Fable
A racing Forza
And Assassins creed
