Uuuuuughhhh.

Do I grab it now, or import from the U.S.? :(

This probably is the worst cover I have ever seen. The only good point is that the tiny picture of Ico's cover is the euro one.

It doesn't. =/

And the cover art is even uglier because it has both french and english even for the title (La collection/ The Collection, Remastered in high definition / maintenant en haute définition)

I'm french-speaking and I wish I had received the US version, which is -slightly- better... Oh well...

That's brutal. I knew I should have hopped on that NewEgg deal.

I got the LE, but should I import from the States now too? Decisions, decisions.

7 hours really isn't that bad, especially considering my typical runthrough of SotC only lasts 2-3 hours, and it only takes about 20 minutes total to kill all of the colossi.

The instruction manual that come inside both ICO and SOTC are so good. I'm not talking about the Brutus booklet. I mean the manual inside each game. It looks unusual.

Trophies are in English so I don't think I'd bother buying the English language version. I'd just play this one.

My copy shipped from Amazon today. Should get it tomorrow or Wednesday. Still immersed in Xenoblade but perhaps I'll start it this week.

mine, too! 2 colossi down after 2+ hrs, most of which was spent: ridin' around, locating save temples, & gathering lizard tails. iow, exactly the same way i remember playing it originally :) . i'm finding that not understanding a damn thing anyone's saying only serves to make the experience even more dreamlike - were there ever 2 games where language was completely unnecessary/irrelevant, it's these 2...

downloaded the bonus stuff via my japan account, but i'm not seeing anything (theme/movie). unlocked when you complete the game(s)?. &, yeah, the manuals were a nice surprise :) ...

From what I've seen, they appear to be the same as the Japanese PlayStation 2 booklets.

$35 on Ebay. Yikes, I know, but I love DXHR.

That's weird. You should be able to see the themes in the themes area right away. Just download it again. It should be on your download list in JPN PSN. If not, it means you haven't downloaded it.

I have no idea. I never bought the PS2 version from Japan.

Uh, my Amazon order still hasn't shipped...Should I be worried?

I suppose it wouldn't be too bad if it showed up late, because that would force me to actually get some stuff done tomorrow that I need to do, but I still hope it gets here tomorrow.

Does Newegg offer release date delivery for games like this? I've never used them.

No. I usually get my shipping confirmation email late the night before release date delivery.

No because it can shipped later today and expedited. What you should take into account is the time/route if your delivery person

I always get packages in the afternoon/evening

Freaking 2011! I got an amazon email, I knew it was for a game but I could not remember what the heck came out this week. It's all running together! Can't wait to play these games once more.

Ahaha, yes! I was half-asleep when I redeemed that and I went "Man, why is the items list going on and on and on for ages? How many items are they giving me?!" They really need a "download all" button or maybe there was one but I just didn't see it.
