Any hint of a special edition?

[Hitman]

I think I heard that once

It sure came with a printed manual, because I have it

I meant that I'm not sure today if that was a limited edition or just the first 500 copies, or whatever....

I seem to remember it was going to be the first few hundred, then it was extended to... I think pre-ordered copies from Ubisoft directly? I know that there was no special 'boxed edition' as the Jiffy bag came from Ubisoft France with the recognition manual as a seperate item.

I hope it comes with a manual. My Sh4 was disk only.
I had to use my Sh3 manual to figure out fleetboats?

Do you have any links for that? I'm interested in a collectors edition, but if it contains crap only then they can keep it.
And a gamepad is crap to me...

YES! EB Games shows a listing for a collector's edition - AU$108. No indication yet on the inclusions, but still, it's a positive indication that one will exist.

Anyway, some quotes from the features list that may help answer some of the issues that have been argued here lately...

WAR STRATEGIES: Choose your own strategy and select your targets with a new objective-driven, dynamic campaign.
NEW USER INTERFACE: Prowl the waters with a brand-new user interface. Now, every beginner can successfully command a sub while remaining free of confusion. In expert mode, experienced players will be provided all the necessary information and controls to command the sub completely on their own.

And one sure to please mookie:

CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE: Experience the most realistic and immersive Silent Hunter ever created. Improved environment graphics create a powerful level of immersion as you operate authentic, highly detailed U-boats and fight against surface ships.

Sorry mate, couldn't resist.

Will the 'Special Edition' version be the version that actually works ?
