Saw this in the thread about the US release
"After months of anticipation, Rainbow Six Vegas is out on the Xbox 360 on 11/22! Expect to see both regular and Collector???s Edition in stores by the end of the week"

My question is, is this CE going to be able to find in Europe?(I live in Sweden)
Or is it only available in USA?

I know there's some Frag Doll video content discussing the history of the R6 series but beyond that I'm not sure.<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

Found this on Ebgames.com

"The Rainbow Six: Vegas Limited Edition contains:

The Making of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
Go behind the scenes with the development team of Rainbow Six Vegas.

The Faking-of the Making-of
Designing video games isn't all fun and games. Sometimes it's just FUNNY.

Plus bonus features that show Rainbow Six like you've never seen before!"

Anyone know what the bonus features are? And if its going to be released i sweden/europe..

I picked it up at lunch. The collectors edition includes:

The Making of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas:
About 10 minutes long +/-. It includes general talk on gameplay enhancements for next gen, a lengthy bit on the motion capture system, and the OPA (Observe, Plan, Assault) video posted over at IGN a few weeks ago.

The Faking-of the Making-of:
Basically a comedic version of the above, more or less, with a few of the game designers. Mildy funny at times, though nothing too special.

Rainbow Six Retrospective
History of the franchise with two of the Frag Dolls narrating. Pretty quick history lesson basically.

Didn't find any easter eggs, so the above looks to be pretty much it.

Oh, and the "collector's edition" game box cover. Woo Hoo!

That doesn't sound like anything I would like to collect. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

Think I will stick with my pre-ordered standard edition.<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

I'd just stick to the standard edition, unless you like collecting. It's nice to have, but I wish I would have saved the $10. I was definitely hoping for more.

atm it doesn??t look like I have a choice :P
I usually buy CE, and i have 700 (around 98.66 US dollars) on coupons to spend at the Game store here in Gothenburg, The standard edition cost 600, wich is about 84.56 US dollars (I know, expensive..) and wont get much for the last 100 sek, so instead of having coupons worth 100 wich I cant get anything for, I can spend them on the CE, and get rid of that problem :P

Same here, I have almost only bought collector editions the last year, exept for GoW, I won that. So if the CE reaches Sweden, I get something to spend my last coupon on :P

imo it is NOT worth buying at all. The collectors edition only has a "redish" sleeve theat goes over the orignal game box along with a bonus dvd. Its the same stunt Ubi pulled with SCDA.

Yeah these "collectors" editions really need to be stepped up for the extra $10 you pay for them. The "extras" on Vegas were MAYBE 30 minutes of footage, when put together. I don't have GOW, but the packaging and list of extras seems pretty good for the extra $$$. Vegas wasn't really worth it. I won't even go the SCDA route http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-sad.gif.
