GTR2 "special edition"?

by j.. » Sun, 01 Oct 2006 07:54:37

I was in my local CompUSA the other day and saw GTR2 on the shelf.
The box cover was marked "special edition" and it included GTL in the
box.  Is this really a "special edition" or are all of the US versions
of GTR2 like that (do they include GTL)?  

(My local BestBuy is one of the ones that hasn't stocked the game yet,
so I'm debating if this is a good reason to spring an extra $10 for it
now at CompUSA. :)

Actually, more to the point, is GTL on the same (Securom-protected)
DVD as GTR2 and can I have a Starforce-free PC with this edition of
GTL?  

(Or is it a separate [still Starforce-protected] disc and there's no
escaping Starforce for GTL?) :(

The best buy version does not include GT Legends, no idea on the starforce.

I believe it is exactly the same as the original GTL release, so
complete with Starforce.

Not exactly the same, Viva Media reprinted the CD and forgot to print
the CD key on them... So you need to e-mail them to get a key to install
GTL (SF protected)
