Suikoden V: Free artbook AND LE soundtrack preorder at ebgames (B&M, no online yet)

[quote name='Ecofreak']Sweet - I love artwork. Is it on par w/ that found in the LE Art book from GS/EB?
[/QUOTE]

Yes, it is... its the same style but alot more of it. From what I glanced through, every one of the 108 stars gets a pretty nice sized drawing, and there is even another section of art in the back of the book.

Sweeeet. I am so picking up this guide, maybe even two. One for usage and one for collection. Now if only the blasted thing would ship...

[quote name='Starky27']I know the Wal-Mart and Target sites typically discount guides pretty well. Though this is from experience, I haven't checked the actual cost for the Suiko V guide...[/QUOTE]

Not this time, guide comes in at $15.87 before tax and shipping. :whistle2:?
 
You guys just gave me a good idea. If I preorder FF:Advent Children from amazon, I'll just pick up the Suikoden V strategy guide to bring me over $25 for free shipping. Works out perfectly. Hopefully the guide and Suikoden V go rare.. I'm not even going to open my guide. When it comes to guides, gamefaqs actually has some use.

Sure, if you're waiting until late April for both of them to ship.

Well think of it this way, Suikoden 2 came out a week before Final Fantasy 8 and didnt get much of the spotlight due to FF8. Suikoden 5 came out a week before another big name Square title, Kingdom Hearts 2.
 
[quote name='Ecofreak']Sure, if you're waiting until late April for both of them to ship.[/quote] Yeah, I wouldn't care when the guide comes in. I'm not even going to remove the plastic.

Yeah, everybody keeps talking about that, but I don't think Suikoden V will ever be rare like Suikoden II was/is.

Of course not but i doubt it will be as available as 4 was and still is. Hell youd have a hard time finding 3 these days

Really? I don't look for it, but I see III at plenty gamestops/ebgames. A bunch are up on eBay also it isn't priced very high.
 
[quote name='Zennousha']So is the art cell worth picking up for the 15 or so shipped it seems to be going for on eBay?[/QUOTE]

If you can get it for $15 shipped you're a lucky man.

Most auctions are ending in the $20 range before shipping now. I paid $25 shipped for mine. A friend who got it said the art cell is reaaaaaaaaally nice, though.

The art cell is on a flat rate priority envelope if that helps you get an idea of the size. Looks great. Shocked there hasn't been any on ebay yet :)

Based on the picture, I'd say, "Heck yea!" I've been most fortunate to find someone on CAG who sold it to me for $15 shipped, but think it'll be worth more in both collector's value and sentimantality should the game really be on par w/ Suikoden II.

Look into getting it before long, otherwise, prices may go up even more.
 
I was fortunate to acquire a copy of the artwork cell without preordering the game. Quality of the artwork cell is exceptional. I think the characters are actually printed on a transparent plastic cell superimposed on the background art...thus the name "artwork cell", I guess.

With the thick, black border, you can just frame the thing in a standard photo frame :)
