Having recently bought okami and brawl, and both of thse comign with a "limited edition" special sleeve, i was wondering what you all thought of them? do you like special editions of games with extras and collectable things, or do you think theyre a waste of time? the most recent ones i can think of is halo 3 and alone in the dark. personally i like the colllectable things lol

I got a limited one with brawl and to be honest its just free gift to me.

Nuffing special about getting extra postcards and a sleeve. Although i will still keep them.

But compared to the ps3 and 360 ones they are really amateurish.

I think it's cool that they come with limited editions, but will they really ever increase in value? I imagine Nintendo-branded stuff will, but I can't see a lot of it gaining much value over the aeons. But you never know.

Keep collecting!!!! :)

I never specially buy a limited edition game, because quite frankly I just want to play the game. I’m not too bothered about special sleeves as they’re only going to be show on my shelf (sideways) or extras which I would probably neglect to collect dust.

Not saying it a waste of time either; some people just like to collect stuff, while others do not.

Ben, why are 'concept arts' or 'making of dvd' ****? Explanation please?

Take your time with typing dude, you have no reason to rush. Just chill to the beat of the keyboard. Quality over quantity. ;)

Thats where your wrong ben. Thats your opinion.
Some people like me find it interesting on finding out who makes the game and how it was made ,how they designed(graphics,gameplay)etc.

Thats what they put in the extra dvd which is why its good.

And not only that. On 360 they put bonus online things on your special edition bonus disc not just interviews.
