Do you care for 'Limited Edition' games?

And when I mean is for Games that include extra stuff such as Art Books, Extra DVDs or Figurines, maybe more. Are you are gamer who goes out and pay an extra $10 for the Limited version of a flasgship game?

well, I do. I like watching how a game is done, specially since I'm gonna be in the future a Game Art Designer(making a Bachelor in Game Art and design), watching the future process I will work with. And I do love getting those Art Books. They inspire me.

I wanna hear your opinion on this matter, as many people find these 'Limited Edition' version of games pointless. Do you think the $10 extra is worth it or not?

Discuss.

Not since games went up in price. They wanted an arm and a leg for the Special Edition of Halo 3.

But if it is worth it to you then why the hell not !!!!!

I'm a sucker for Limited Editions. Halo 2 & 3, Jade Empire, those are just some of the games I purchased with a LE version. I don't know why I'm willing to pay extra for a few pieces of concept art and behind the scenes videos. Maybe it's because the DVDs I get are usually 2 disc (If available). So case in point, I pretty much enjoy watching how certain productions are made including games. Plus it's nice to have something to look forward to after completing your experience.

However, the monetary question to this is, does additional content justify an extra $5-10? In my opinion, it really depends on whether you'll be knowingly satisfied with what game publishers offer in that particular package and the total price attached. To me, $5-10 doesn't seem like a huge deal when you talk about the last generation, but the $10 increase of games in this current generation, as well as $10 more with Limited Editions, it can be a bit steep for people on a budget.

No 60$ is already too much for a game.

Yes it is, but thank goodness Wii/PC games don't have to have that rediculous price point.

After buying that horrible worthless FFXII Limited Edition from Gamestop, I will never buy limited editions ever again!

But artbooks are cool...IF it has a lot of content. But sadly, the games I got with artbooks (forced to buy it) like Ar Tonelico (can't believe I bought that game) or Suikoden V, the artbook is a cheap, throw away worthless manual. No art in it.

So no, no more limited editions from now on.

If it's a game i really want i will buy the CE if not it's the normal version

I've only bought one before (Halo 2) and boy was that crap.

I've pretty much sworn to never buy a CE again, except for Stranglehold, since a real movie which is relevant is included.
