I mean give the customer something worth the extra 10,70 dollars. Like for GTAIV, how about, oh I don't know GTA 1, 2 on a disc. For Halo I'm not sure.

If there's one for Mass Effect or assassins creed I'd get it. Otherwise I think they're a waste of $10.

I don't pay for something that I won't use. So, regular editions all the way, but if there is something worth spending a extra 10 dollars on then I will probably get it.

A disc of video about the game isn't worth $10 to me because I'll only watch it once. I prefer more tangible things, like the Halo Legendary edition helmet or the Prey figurines (even though I didn't get either). I think if there's a poster, a t-shirt, a CD of music, or some other kind of reusable, TANGIBLE item, it may be worth it. I bought the special edition of Splinter Cell: Double Agent, and I still haven't watched the extra disc...

I don't know about you but it turns me on... :oops: RAWR... [spoiler] But seriously, if it's worth getting the special edition, I'll buy it. THat's what I did with Jade Empire and I got a new character and weapon. [/spoiler]

ya. i generally don't get special editions. i take the discs out and put them all in a disc holder with my other games. i never see the box, so i don't care if it's plasitic, metal or even cardboard. usually any behind the scenes footage is pretty boring. it would have to be a pretty nice perk for me to spend an extra 10 bucks. i might consider it for in game items or something.

Depends on the game. Halo 3 "special edition" = wack Bioshock "collectors edition" = sweet

They're kinda useless to me unless I am REALLY hyping a game, if San Andreas had a SE I probably would've bought it but that's the only game I can think that I actually would've spent the extra money for
