    Anyone have a copy of the Limited Edition? Is it worth getting the boxed copy rather than just downloading the Steam version?

    Jeff said it well once.  It was along the lines of "It's not about whether or not it is worth it, but if extra content has enough value to you."  So it really is up to you to decide.

    Well considering it's all in game stuff, I just wondered if any of it made any difference to the gameplay. But in the end your probably right, considering it doesn't seem like a lot of folks bought the limited edition.

    @HadesTimes:  As far as I know the limited edition is the only one available on store shelves. So if you don't have the limited edition, you have a used limited edition. All you get is some multiplayer XP, some scenarios and some armor for your avatar.
    Edit: I didn't read the question very well apparently. It's not really worth it though, IMO, that is assuming it costs more. Actually, it is worth it, just to have the box.

    Personally, I don't find anything appealing about the Limited Edition: a ninja, some multiplayer armor and xp, and an extra "historical scenario."

    You also get another clan to play as: The Hattori.

    You can find the limited edition for €20 cheaper than the steam version were I live and then just activate it on steam, best of both worlds.
