How can you tell the Phantom Brave Special Edition?

[Admiral Ackbar]

For the special edition is there a mark on the package. There were a bunch of copies of Phantom Brave at TRU but I didn't look through them or recall any special edition marking.

I'd like to know if it's labeled special edition. If I'm going to pick up one, and they're both the same price, I might as well get the special edition if they have it.

There is a small space on the back near the lower left corner that either says "Special Edition" or it says nothing. There was a scan of it some time ago when the game first released.

 

[Admiral Ackbar]

Okay, thanks! I'll look for it. Small print on back, lower left, "Special Edition"

Not necessarily small print. There is a picture of a creature from the game sitting under what looks like a mushroom. There should be "Special Edition" in red type over that picture, or just the picture.

Here is the non limited edition

Where I circled is where it will say Special Edition instead of that design, hope that helps.

I was bored so I took a pic.

wow...such a big difference is there any difference in gameplay, extras etc. though?

 

[spidey]

Nope, just that music cd.

I wonder if the non-special will be more rare than the special seeing that most people got the speciall... =)

Well, I hope so considering I didn't get the special edition today in the TRU sale. But I don't care, I waited so long to get the game and plus I got the special SMT:n special edition in the sale so its a fair trade off.

 

[spidey]

There's a Shin Megami special edition?

 

[Jrunt20x]

Yeah, the first printing comes with a soundtrack just like PB. Look on the back of the box and if it is the first printing it will say it comes with a soundtrack on the bottom of the box.

 

[craven_fiend]

yeah its got a music cd

 

[spidey]

Gotta find me a SE SMT...

 

[Jrunt20x]

Yeah, I actually forgot about the fact that their was an SE SMT. I was just happy to see it at TRU today cause some TRUs weren't carrying it according to fellow CAGs. Then when I was in the car I was looking at the game and it felt heavier then I remembered about the SE. If you go to TRU make sure you get one of the SEs. I got lucky because I could have been stuck with a regular one.
