Final Fantasy XIII-2 Collector's Edition (Xbox 360) $26.98 @ Amazon

This was a great CE though. I got my $$ worth out of it and listened to the OST a lot on my ipod. I you don't have or only have the base edition, this is highly recommended.

Tell me about it, I brought the regular edition for $35.
I loved FF XIII, but I hated FF XIII-2.
The endings was just ..........&*$(#
On well...in for one at $25!
(only bc I have a bunch of Amazon GC in my account)
 
I got lucky at my local GS with this. They sold a complete used edition for $17.99 plus it was B2G1 free so ended up getting it for like $11. I need to listen to some of the soundtrack.
 
I don't think the ending theme song (New World) is on the soundtrack. You can either import the CD (Charice - Infinity) or you can buy the song on the Japanese iTunes store.

Gah! Exactly the same thing I was thinking! Bah, bugger all! BUGGER ALL I SAY! fuck
 
I lost interest in the series after FF X. And only pick the regular version of XIII.

Should I even bother to get this? I'm tempted by the price.
 
[quote name='Blaster man']Will it go lower? They must have made TONS of these.[/QUOTE]

I'd guess yes, or at least hit this price again if you're not in a hurry to play it.

I barely beat XIII and I played the hell out of XIII-2 and got the final secret 100% ending. Loved it (the game, not the ending... GRRRRR TO BE CONTINUED IN XIII-3).

FFXIII-2 fixed a lot of the issues that made FFXIII a snooze. Battle system is updated, less pointless end-game grinding, fewer "hallway" levels, branching cool / interesting story line, time travel and alternate reality stuff, ability to replay levels... a bit of a Pokemon aspect to it since you can capture enemy animals to use as team-mates and you can level them, which is actually pretty cool. Side stuff like Chocobo raising & racing also kinda cool.

Bah, now I'm tempted to pick up the DLC just to play this again, even though I heard the DLC didn't actually add much.
 
Yeah, I enjoyed XIII-2 more than XIII for sure. The pokemon aspect to your party was pretty fun, although I found myself sticking with one monster for the last chunk of the game :)

The soundtrack included is worth it to me - I liked the music quite a bit!

As for the DLC... it's mostly worthless, but I do recommend at least the Lightning story DLC. The Sazh DLC is basically a new card game in the casino, and then you can use him in your party. Same with the Snow DLC. The Mass Effect costumes look pretty neat too
 
Awesome, thanks op! I had given up waiting for this to hit my price & bought the standard version used this past Sunday from GS. Well within my week return period tho, so it's going back & this has been ordered! :D

I got it when it was $40 too and I feel the same way. The CE isn't bad but man, the game is mediocre or bad on so many levels that it just wasn't worth it.

This will probably go even lower, seeing as how Amazon is still showing more than 999 copies in stock.
 
Bought one. I'm still kicking myself for not picking up The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Limited Edition when it was on sale below $20.

Noel's theme and Yuel's theme are two of the best game soundtracks, IMHO.
 
[quote name='skoomadiver']I picked up one, but if i find one at best buy with the book would i be able to exchange it?[/QUOTE]

They are different sets, so no.

The set BB had was just the game with the novella, and a slipcover to hold them all.

Only showing 520 left now.
 
[quote name='DarkSageRK']This is the last time I'll buy a CE from Square at retail.[/QUOTE]

This happens with most CE's. There are a few that hold their value, but for the most part they all drop in price.

Besides, if you bought it at release this is almost 10 months later, what did you expect?

Soundtrack sells seperately from Square for $35 so it's worth it just for the 4-disc soundtrack.
 
fuck it, I'm going to go ahead and buy it. This is really reasonable. I won't bother waiting to see if it goes cheaper. Got it for 23.27. It could go lower but the way they're inching the price down tells me that they're trying to clear them out now.

And if they're already down to 520 from the more than 999 copies in one day they probably won't be in stock for much longer.
 
Gotta love me some Amazon Prime, ordered this yesterday and it arrived today at 10:30 AM. It was packaged in a box and is in perfect condition. Might order another one to keep sealed now that the price has dropped $2.
 
I already have the standard edition, but I almost want to pick it up. I really enjoyed XIII and XIII-2 so might be worth about $25 for just collector purposes.
 
It dropped $2 to $23.27.

[quote name='sixteenvolt420']Only showing 520 left now.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, it was on the front page of SD. People there will buy anything if it's cheap enough. To tell you the truth, I'm surprised that this hasn't sold out yet.
 
[quote name='sixteenvolt420']Only showing 520 left now.[/QUOTE]

Where do you see the number left?
 
[quote name='bshirk']Where do you see the number left?[/QUOTE]

Just try adding 999 to the cart and it'll show you the actual number left available.

It usually doesn't actually show you how many are left until a much smaller number on the item info.

I thought BB also had the CE with novellas.
