Err as in "that's actually one of the reasons I'm buying the CE". I don't need one, but I want one. So there. lmao

And what an ass you are! xD

You've already spent your money on what most people consider a waste...a GAME!

Games are for entertainment... the entertainment value i've had from people.. STILL.. who msg me and say "how do you get those glowy hands"..

YEARS from now those glowy hands will be EVEN MORE RARE!!!..

those few extra pounds spend on getting something unique is worth its weight in gold!

I'll always spend extra money on getting something unique or different.. because....well... it makes me feel special ... because.,,. *sniff* my mother never loved me

3)Ritualist box will meet the garbage bin sooner or later, even if you tell yourself it wont.

4) Backup Dancers and the extra emotes are just as useless as the glowing aura for the Prophecies CE.
(If people asking "what's that aura?" or "why do you have dancers behind you?" make your day every time, you need to concider getting a life. And I dont mean it in a mean way.)
No glowing auras or backup dancers will help you win in HoH or GvG.

Don't worry man, I know your feeling too. We are realists, we don't want to have to pay for things that are unnecessary. I comtemplated heavily if the CE edition was worth it, mainly for all the extras and I eventually concluded the only item worth having was the 'backup dancer' emotes, and we don't even know how that is going to look yet! I didn't have the CE for GW:P, and paying extra for the glowing hands didn't seem like a good idea either, so I was still on the fence. The trailers and other video really sealed the deal for me on getting CE though; because it's Asian-themed and I'm all about that. Good link on that mousepad; I'm thinking of getting it for when UT2007 releases.

Hey me too - I started with my original Playstation I got back when it was first released. After that, I've been keeping all my game boxes for ... just collecting purposes. I can't stand the thought of tossing them, although they are just taking up space.

What trailers? Link me please? Unless these trailers show some CE only bonuses, why would you refer to them? CE or not CE - Asian themed either way.

The CE comes with a disc that contains 2 trailers EXCLUSIVE to the CE. So there are no links to them.. If thats the trailers he was talking about, which im guessing it would be.

Plus, if he likes the art, he's probably picking up the CE for the Art Book.

Frankly, there's more than $20 worth of stuff in the CE (my opinion).

OK, maybe a little sick.

The backup dancers will provide a distraction so I don't have to answer the glowy-fingers question anymore.
I have the CE and I know about the backup dancers but not about the fingers?

I know you don't like to but, do they glow normally, or is the an CE emote?

Plese don't kill me.......

What is this business about the Assassin box or the Rit box (for standard edition)? You do realize there's two sides to the box....? Assassin on one side, Rit on the other....

well the standard came in a small box. the CE was a big box. I like big things, so I guess I was tempted to buy the CE.

I wanted the CE for the Art Book, so beautifull!
As a matter of fact I did not make an assassin or a ritualist, I really don't like either. But I did make a ranger and a warrior!

yes !!! Ritualist is way cooler

Worst reason : so I can do my deadly assassin Kage Bunshin no Jutsu attack against bosses (ok, so that means I'll have start dancing during fights).

Two days ago I got in sync dance with 4 other female ritualists, all with backup. Nice; totally useless, but nice Plus the Divine Aura looks great on a ritualist.
