    -Yup here it is. My signed collectors edition of Fantasy 13. I got it at the end of a fantastic game launch which I covered (VIDEO HERE) . My friends whom were'nt in the queue actually bought me the game and then handed it down to me so I could get it signed. Not only this but out of this years releases Fantasy 13 has been one of my most anticipated games to look forward to along with Alan Wake and Dead Rising 2.

    And yet I want to sell it. Why?

    YOU GUESSED IT! Cause it kinda sucks.

    If your on the internet for longer then 15 minutes youve probably already heard about what the gameplay consists of - walk down a narrow pathway, battle sequence, press A (X), Walk down narrow pathway, cutscene, REPEAT.

    And its true.

    Screw this 30 hrs it gets better crap, I dont really wana go through that to get to the supposed good stuff.

    Or do I? See Im kinda tempted to see if it REALLY does magically get better. Hence one of the reasons im in this dilemma. Plus theres the fact that ITS SIGNED by the producer and writer/director (not sure), which is a pretty cool thing to have. My first actual signed game I believe.

    So in comes you guys, my fellow gamers. GAMERS OF THE WORLD UNITE! I reach across to you, across the highway of the interwebz for your input. Across four gaming blogs. VOTE!

    EBAY OR KEEP?

    As someone 30 hours in, I can say that it marginally gets a little more diverse and open and challenging, but not necessarily better. But then I enjoyed these 30 hours enough that I did not have to force myself forward (fifth ark excluded, what a horrible piece of chocobo droppings of a dungeon)

    Personally I'd keep it, it's a cool collectable even if you don't like the game.

    I think that's Yoshinori's signature?  That's a pretty cool one to have.  I'd probably keep it.

    I'd personally keep it but you don't seem to value sweet video game loot as much as me. So you may want to sell it.

    I would keep it.
    A signed collector's edition? Even if I hated the game, I would keep it. It's just a cool thing to have.
    In my opinion.
    But I actually like FF13.

    Game is shallow like a dirty mud puddle.   Sell that shit and get what ya can now.   It's not like there will be a working 360 in the future when the game is actually worth something.

    Keep it. I mean, it's been signed and all and it would be a cool collectible. Maybe a long time from now, you can sell it for a decent price.

    I love the game, so I wouldn't, but this is your decision. If you really don't like it and need the money then go for it.

    If you like having a cool collectible on your shelf, then keep. If you want extra money or a better game and don't care about the sentimental value, then sell.

    Theres a signed PS3 copy on ebay going for about £74 right now.  It's the standard edition but has the HMV exclusive sleeve.  Kind of a good indicator for what kind of money you can expect.

    @Random88:  awesome thanks dude, I was thinking around the £100 price point.
    @DocHaus:  youve pretty much nailed it. And im leaning towards selling it.
    @TheGreatGuero: hopefully
    @Lambert:  yayyyyyyyyy, thats the plan! :D
    @chronicsmoke: cool man! im guessing you actually like the game though? 
    @InfiniteGeass:  yes i need the mow-nay
    @C2C:  yeah if I put it up on ebay, im deffo gonna set a reserve price. Prob around £100 But that does seem to be a popular decision to hold back on it. Guess it could be worth loads more laters on.
    @habster3: ^
    @MrKlorox: ^^
    @Newten: Well, it WASNT a gift. I soon paid my friend afterwards.soooooo should be alright. Right?
    @Ninjakid7396: at the moment. not really tbh dude
    @xyzygy:  yeah but dude, you ACTUALLY like the game. I dont :/ hence this could go to someone whom could get the most out of it... LIKE YOU ;)
    @Mr402: lmao!! so true 
    @synysterd: you called me 'boss' hence I shall take your comment into deep consideration! :)

    Keep it.
     
    Then sell it a decade later. Collection items cost more over time, or well that's normally the case.

    If you don't like it, that's your thing.  I love the game, but I'd say keep it regardless.  If it's signed by anyone important (can't read that handwriting), it'll only go up in value.

    Sell it.  I had a few things signed by Cliver Barker and Neil Gaiman that were doing nothing for me, but when they turned into beer and scrubbers I was delighted.

    Sell it if you don't like it, keep it if you do, pretty simple.

    Of course you'd probably get more money from it 10 years from now, maybe..
