    So, I have purchased a limited edition "Big Boss Pack" and am interested in keeping it boxed. However, because of the way Sony does things now, whenever you buy things like this there will be digital download codes that allow, in this case, a FOX T-Shirt and some cool extra kick butt weapons IN GAME, so, essentially, to fully preserve this since there is an expiration date on the download codes, would you say it is better to leave it boxed, or better to have a MINTY boxed but with the FULL pack as meant - thoughts - on both choices, anyone?

    I though the codes where for use internally (not via PSN Voucher) and they are the same (across all bundles).

    You might want to hit up GameFaqs.com and take a look.

    The codes you redeem are redeemed on PSN for extra weapons (to my knowledge, if not for this game the same things come up for other bundles / games) and are the same across both box bundles, yes. However, neither is really "complete" without the extra guns in the game, wouldn't you agree? I mean the bundle was meant to include those extra items in the game unlike if you just bought the game, so, I am just curious on opinions of boxed vs complete, because when you include limited time redeem codes for these additional game items, you bring up a whole new question - boxed or complete? I know it's reasonably anal to ask, but obviously we have all seen and can understand about people being anal about expensive collectable video games... ; )
