Robotech Battlecry Limited Edition for $19.99

Fry's has the Robotech Battlecry Limited Edition for $19.99 for Xbox. I did not have any intent of buying this game, and actually do not know much about the game. But the package extras was too good to resist. Exclusive tshirt, game soundtrack, original concept art, numbered dog tag, lenticular art (whatever that is : ), and oh, the game, of course. Anyway, just grabbed it and was thinking of checking out reviews before I open it, if at all. If nothing else, I get myself a $20 tshirt. No, will return if reviews say it sucks.

PS 2 version is $29.99. While I'm at it, I also price matched the Shenmue 2 from Circuit City for $19.99 as well. Only because of the shenmue DVD? Well, we'll think over the next few weeks if these are good buys or good returns ; )

Thanks for the heads up.

The game is definitely worth at least $20. Beware though, it's a tuogh game and will frustrate you at times. I snagged one yesterday too....

I believe that's one of those pictures that looks like one thing from one angle, but if you change the angle, it turns into another picture.

I feel sorry for the people who bought the LE version when it initially came out for $75+...

Did a search at Outpost:

PS2 Limited Edition

http://shop3.outpost.com/product/3451253

XBox Collector's Edition

http://shop3.outpost.com/product/3451263

The bonus contents are identical, except for the version of the game.

yeah, you're right... i see that. it is ambiguous. but i think that that is the regular version. i had to read the description several times to sort of get to that conclusion.

if you look in the "also recommended" box on that same page, it lists Xbox Robotech Collector's Edition - $29.99

anyway, you could be right. frankly, i'm having my brother pick it up for me at fry's in LA :crossesfingers:
