It has come to my attention that there is an ff12 collectors edition. i searched this forum and found that people were talking about some picture that you can get from it. i was just wondering if there is any difference in gameplay compared to the normal one which i currently own?

Yeah, I heard about this. Apparently it has like some bonus art and stuff like that and it's only like about $10 more than the regular version, I think. In retrospect, I wish I had bought it. As far as I know, though, the gameplay is exactly the same.

It comes with a bonus disk with a lot of art, and some trailers on it. The coolest part is the box though. It's metal and stylish. :O

I suppose a "true fan" would own both versions. Maybe I'll buy it sometime if I can get a good deal and I have some spare cash...

I thought my favorite part was going to be the Final Fantasy through the ages. But I think they could of done a lot more with that....and introduce the whole story and the characters.

and no there is no diffrence in the games at all

is the bonus CD for ps2 or pc?

PS2. I don't know about PC.

It works on PC and any other dvd player :D

:) In other words, it's a DVD and therefore it doesn't matter what you stick into basically, as long as you don't stick into your Walkman or something.

haha great thanks alot!

Indeed - the bonus disc is a "movie" DVD with some featurettes - it does have a nice history of FF with video clips, very retrospective and some very interesting interviews with some of the designers (graphics, battle system, audio, etc.). I had to pre-order the collector's edition from EB Games (Electronics Boutique) in Canada, but I know there's also a U.S. counter-part to EB, just not sure what they're called.

As Eddy Gein mentioned, the two discs are layered on top of each other in a very slick metal case - well worth the extra price. I'll see if I can find a pic to link to somewhere...one sec...here we go:

It's a very slim case - nice and slick - when you open it the two discs are on top of each other (if that makes sense)...right below the case pic in the link you'll see a gray bar with ratings (ESRB) then there's another pic of the inside of the case you can click on that enlarges it - decent representation, though ebay probably has the whole works even bigger...here we go:

Meanwhile the CE of the Game already dropped to the price of the normal game, I got it a EB Games too. It's the same store here as in Canada.
A partner is Gamestop, it's like the same store and they have it here everywhere.

There's a CE of the Strategy Guide as well, includes a nice Artwork book. Is about 10 dollar more, than the normal Guide, but for me it was worth the money.
