I hate collector's editions! As I have to buy them if they include a "Making of" disc.

That anime is crap. Very slow-paced, not very satisfying either. Dante doesn't hit Devil Trigger at any point, for instance, and at the end he wins while talking about the strength of the human spirit, or whathaveya.

I reserved it, but I might change my mind, simply because the rewards are stuff that'll be available on torrents later. Especially the soundtrack - putting selections from it on a DVD is not nearly as enticing as including a soundtrack CD, and that could be enough to make me not want to pay the extra twenty dollars.

Thats a nice CE! I'm for sure getting it, but it should be $69. I could really care less about the damn anime.

To all who are not sure what system they want to get this on. I'm just going to throw some words out their to get the memory flowing:

1) Capcom
2) Lost Planet
3) Unreal Engine 3
4) PS3
5) Wait
6) Online
7) Read Ring
8) Match Making
9) DLC
10) Lost Planet

Hopefully that helped but if it didn't and you just need someone to tell you... you can't go wrong with the 360 or Wii version (tee hee). For the record, I am NOT a fanboy and before you run off to read my comment history, I just want to say I think it's wrong to judge based on history (disregard the hypocracy).

@Nascar: Duh?!! Probably because it's only on Xbox duche-bag!!!

OMG... I'm just kidding. My excuse? I was playing Halo 3 on live and it kinda rubbed off.

Seriously though, I wonder if this is one of those product shots like the "hard drive required" symbol? If that's the case then it's probably just stock Xbox graphics and probably wont be on the final version. Then again, if it is, then you might want to watch closely as MS spins the issue so fast it'll generate a reverse-spin illusion that'll have a push-line at the expense of the PS3.

there was an image on neogaf of "replicas" of ebony and ivory. the thing is, they looked like real pistols. just amazing imo. don't think i'd spring for the collectors edition unless they included something to considerable to make it worthwhile.

Someone needs to port the Windows PS2 emulator to the 360. PS1 too while they're at it.

That would really make the point about lack of BC on the PS3.

I will admit the anime started out kinda bad but towards the middle through the end it actually turned out to be good especially the lady and trish action. I will get this game for the ps3 but I never been able to beat any of the games. They are mad hard but fun I guess I like punishment and a good challenge.

@Nascar: Because someone failed at photoshop? Nah, I don't know.

A big "no" on the collector's edition, though. Nothing in that pack is worth $20. Maybe if it included all the originals on one disc... Except with BC gone that can't happen. Oh well, pass!

vizion — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 10:33:53 MST

The reason they're only including 4 episodes is because they want you to actually buy the set. Yes I know, that was obvious. Still, of course I'd like it if all eps were included, even as a free DLC.

@Laxe: the UK versions of games are additionally taxed for all the extra u's they need to add into words like colour, and for changing all the "ass" into "arse". :) Still, if you're paying 40p for a standard edition, this special ed. must run at least 60p

Hmm, I just got the special ed connection.

Supertamago — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 09:44:44 MST

This seems like a pretty standard "special edition".
What's this about a "Digital" artbook? What happened to hardcopies? Sure it's cheaper but do I really want something that's gonna be on the net 2 hours after I buy the game?
I'm also a bit bummed about the "anime". I saw a few episodes and I didn't like it (What's up with that loli character?).
Had they filled the blu-ray version with all of the episodes in HD, I might have considered buying it and maybe even a ps3 with it.

y2kenjination — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 09:39:30 MST

Done and done. If only for the sweet ass soundtrack...I LOVE the music they use in the newest trailer. Now the question is: which system should I buy it for? I want to support Sony and all, but Microsoft has turned me into an achievement whore. =( If the PS3 has award trophies by then, I suppose I'll go with the PS3 version.

I like the PS3 case more, they went with a neutral color that pretty much works with everything.

PlaidNinja — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 09:10:54 MST

I live in a small apartment, so all my games are in a Case Logic case anyway. I thought the God of War info was cool and all, but I don't know that I'd buy a special edition of the game just for that.

I'm more interested in which version will be better. I'm still leaning towards the 360 version, with its achievments and control with rumble. Will there be online play? If so, then its all Xbox for me. Well... I dunno, I guess that wouldn't matter.

If the PS3 version winds up looking much better and supporting DualShock3 rumble, then I might hold off entirely until DS3 is available.

I won't play this game without rumble, though.

After this period of an insane amount of good game releases and my wallet being totally out of cash for now, I am limiting my game purchases for the next months to 1 a month...This is defintely going to be my Feb purchase (unless miracles do happen and MGS4 and FF13 are released in Feb, in wich case Devil may cry 4 can wait another 3 months or so...)

The PS3 version looks so much cooler, the case I mean, Why does microsoft have this nasty habit of slapping that big ugly Xbox 360 tag at the top of everyone of their games. Granted they have to let you know what console the game is for, but does it have to be so big?

Kuraudo — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 08:59:51 MST

I wish they'd do more cases like the Lost Planet CE where the console, publisher and other logos are all on a clear plastic sleeve that can be removed. It's definitely one of the best looking packages in my collection and it's a shame Capcom aren't doing the same for DMC4.

The bonus disc is tempting, but the anime was a big disappointment and I'm not paying extra for it.
