:O

Why haven't they announced a North American CE yet? >:(

In the UK, it's £59.99 at GAME.

I disagree with those saying that there is nothing special about this. It comes in a flip-top packaging with traditional Final Fantasy cover art as well as a limited edition book of Final Fantasy XIII art and some summon art cards, as well as a special edition sampler of the soundtrack and the L'Cie decal. And for those of you who find this expensive,being a 14 year old with a low paying paper route, I can afford 1 game every 2 or so months and don't have any other disposable income to fund a limited edition soundtrack or a Lightning decal PS3 imported from Japan (no matter how much I want both of those things), so this is my way of showing how much I love the final fantasy series with my low income.

P.S. I personally LOVE the original white background with the Final Fantasy XIII logo
P.P.S. Rant over :-)

agreed, full soundtrack or GTFO. PS all the stuff that came packaged in probably cost Squeenix like $5 to cover materials. The artists were paid beforehand to produce art for the game, so I doubt they got paid any extra for this stuff (as it is just repackaged art that squeenix already had the rights to.)

I guess this si their way of recouping the costs of making such an expensive game, which is understandable.

But I do feel sorry for all the suckers paying an extra 30-40 bucks for $5 worth of junk.

Full-OST or GTFO imo

I'll probably get this.
