Maybe it's just the Rose Colored Glasses of Tolkien + 1 that I have equipped, but that statue, or the whole CE for that matter, doesn't look bad at all. It's certainly doesn't look as bad as the Skyrim dragon CE at a glance. $300 bad...maybe, but I'll keep mine.

Bout time. I've just committed myself to playing through the first six for the first time. Wonder how far apart Volume 2 will be.

If you like turn based rpg at all you will not be disappointed.Final Fantasy Ultimania Archive Volume 1

I've finished all 6 of these and am up to Dragon quest V in that series. Dragon Warrior was my first NES game other than the bundled Mario brothers.

I hope you like 'em! I find the original 6 to be an extremely mixed bag with more duds than studs. Six sure is amazing, though.

FF4 for me has always been the gold standard for JRPGs. Just pure classical story telling and character development with no bloat, no mini games, no millions of side quests or convoluted customization to distract you from the story (usually because the story sucks in modern games because they put 99% of their budget into graphics), no "filler". Just pure Shakespeare like classical story and journey of good vs evil, redemption, sacrifice, betrayal, destiny, save the world kind of stuff. Simple and effective. Modern JRPGs try too hard to do something new or different and it's really not what JRPG fans care about. We just want unforgettable stories, endearing characters, emotionally stirring music and breathtaking scenic landscapes. The 16 bit RPGs, esp with SNES' wavetable sound, were just the right level of technology to allow this to occur while providing enough restrictions to keep devs from getting carried away with nonsense.

Eh, 4-6 were all good. It's 1-3 that's iffy.

4-6 were always my favorites in the series, atleast until 10, 12, and 14.
Seems most people hate 5, but 5 felt like it was more self aware about not being a super serious game and focused on the Job system and skill mastery more.
1 was okay to me, I never could get into 2, and I hated the combat system in 3 (Nothing like getting hit 4+ times in a row by a boss and having a character get insta-ko'd before even being able to make a move)

Looks like the same as the one from E3.
Yea the same one I bought on Ebay for under $50. thank goodness for those flash sale coupons.
I wonder how low the price will crater. Prolly not too low, maybe ~$30ish. Good news for steelbook collectors that didn't buy on the first round though. Better prepare to pick one up within the next week if you want one.

Lol, same here. Haven't looked to see if the E3 version has disappeared off Ebay. Thing is I like the official SB coming in the CE too so I'll have to decide if I want to keep the E3 one. Hopefully I'll get what I paid for it if I end up selling it again.

Does the $200 CE have a Steelbook?
Both Ni No Kuni CEs have the same Steelbook. They both differ from the one handed out at E3.

Best Buy changed their order history format on their website and it's really bad. It no longer organizes by date ordered, sometimes the same orders repeat more than once, you can't sort by open orders only. It's just a total mess.

I didn't like it at first, til I realized it's always putting my open orders first. Then the rest is listed by most recently completed.

It's not doing that on mine. I've 2 open orders, then 3 closed, then 2 more open, with no rhyme or reason to it.

Not only that but the dates listed are messed up too. For example my open order from the Visa Checkout promo from way back in February is showing an 8/30/17 order date. How in the hell does that make any sense?
Also, all my Rewards over the last two weeks of purchases are not showing up in Pending status on my Rewards history page. They are not showing up at all (usually they show up as pending points the next day after purchase). In fact, my total pending points are now zero despite several purchases over the last two weeks.
I wonder if these two issues are related since they both happened around the same time.

Is anyone getting Dissidia Ultimate edition through Square?
I ordered it incase it ended up being rare. I really loved the shit out of the beta and can't wait for the full game, but I'm like 90% sure I'm gonna cancel before launch. I really just want the Artbook as all of the artbooks in the Square Enix CE's have been super high quality.
