With the rise of the Xbox 360 and PS3 and the arrival of a number of games that seemed to have the word "Blockbuster" pre-stamped on them, it's probably not surprising that we've seen a sharp increase in the number of titles that ship with special alternate versions. Generally sporting names like the Limited Collector's Special Totally Awesome Edition (or some variation on that theme), we saw these released with high-profile titles like Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4. Although they are generally hit-or-miss, we can't help getting excited by the thought of getting bonus discs or useless swag (gotta love that Septim coin that came with Oblivion!).

Given its status as one of our Most Anticipated Games of 2008, it's probably not surprising that the folks at Ubisoft decided to create a special edition of a highly-anticipated FPS that will be landing on store shelves on March 18th. The Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 Limited Edition will have an MSRP of $69.99 ($10 more than the standard version) and will include a number of special features. Be sure to check out our exclusive video for more info, including a sneak peek at the equally anticipated Tom Clancy's EndWar!
