  • Got this last year..had some pretty cool games

  • MA15+ Rating. I got a feeling Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition will be in this.

    • Hopefully this and not one of the Kane and Lynch games.

      • Hopefully neither, as I've already got all those :)

        Ideally it'll be something I don't have.

        If not, would I be able to keep them as 'gifts' or would it be rendered null as I already own them?

  • What's the bet that Life is Strange is part of the collection… and I had just bought it last weekend.

  • Sleeping Dogs DE
    LiS Complete
    LRFF13
    FFT0HD
    Lara Croft ToO

    or i might be dreaming HAHAHA

    • I'm betting they'll have:

      • Life is Strange Complete
      • Tomb Raider
      • Dungeon Siege Collection
      • Just Cause 2
      • Deus Ex: Human Revolution

      All the Square Enix games I got on Steam… just to spite me.

      But it'll probably be more like:

      • Life Is Strange
      • Sleeping Dogs DE
      • Final Fantasy 7
      • Lara Croft: Temple of Osiris
      • Thief

      Would be cool to get Rise of the Tomb Raider though.

      • Dont think thief will be in it. That was just in the xmas surprise bundle.

        Actually xmas one also had temple of osirus and life is strange ep 1

        • wasn't that the christmas surprise 2014 though

        • Hmmm, in that case, I'm really hoping for Rise of the Tomb Raider and 4x $10 games.

        • @Mugsy: That would be great but its pretty unlikely. I can see Hitman Episode 1 making it into the bundle (because current public perception of this game is pretty low and it would be a good way to improve that) but ROTR is SquareEnix's current AAA flagship title which is selling well at its current price point (and it still hasn't been released on PS4 yet) so I dont believe there's much of a chance.

        • @shadowx:

          Sounding like it's Sleeping Dogs, Hitman Episode 1, maybe Life is Strange Complete, and a few cheapies to round off the $120.

  • If anyone has problems buying the game, make sure you enable SSL 3.0 in your advanced internet options (inetcpl.cpl) and to turn off your adblocker for this site.

    • This site is one technical problem after another.

  • Maybe they will pop Hitman Episode 1 in there? Would be a good way to improve word of mouth and get people into the game.

    • For $9 + other games that may be good? Heck, at this price - why not?

      (FYI, Episode 1 of Hitman (2016) is $15)

  • Seems like a strange deal… if we like the games we'd probably have some or all of them already!

  • Will it be for sale after the games are announced?

      Reading that, I assume not.

        Yeah "preorder". Doesn't say it won't be available for "order" after.

  • +4

    Seems most people aren't too familiar with these. Historically, they've been good deals, but the last one was absolute trash. Included 2 repeat of previous boxes, and FF14, a subscription game.

    That said, as an AU customer, we have a right to refund for any reason. So I suggest preordering it on the last day and refunding if it's shit again.

    • +5

      What do you mean we can refund it for any reason?

      • +4

        If the stuff in this box suck, you can ask for a refund within 14 days.

        http://eu.square-enix.com/en/documents/tnc. Ctrl+f for "refund

        I refunded the last box, so it should work

        • +2

          Wow that is really awesome, although I'm not sure why this even falls under cooling off rules.

        • Hope this works if it doesn't have Life Is Strange Complete. My $8.99 is in your hands.

        • @ChillBro: Hell, if it has Life is Strange for the 3rd time, my 8.99 is coming back from Squareenix's hands.

          Anyways, the bottom of your confirmation email should've also mentioned the refund possibility

        • @sblash: the past two times only had episode 1 though? I'm talking about the complete edition with all 5 episodes. And yes, I see the bit about cancelling within 14 days through the online form.

  • I'm a bit confused,
    1.are all 5 games they give made by SE?
    2. what if I've gotten duplicate games(I have owned some of them) among those 5 games?

    • +1

      to answer q2

      Since they´ll be delivered as individual games, you´ll be able to spread the Easter cheer by gifting them to your friends!

  • And now we play the waiting game…

  • I signed up for this, I'm really hoping for rise of the tomb raider. Don't really care about anything else!

    • +2

      I think it's highly unlikely they'll be putting a 2 month old game into a $9 bundle with 5 other games but I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

      • I havent been emailed yet. Does anyone know what the games are?

        • FINAL FANTASY VII

    Righto, refund time.

    • +1

      Ditto, just did my refund claim.
      Unfortunately I already have every one of these games.

      • Yeah I had 4/5 but I would have kept it regardless of how shitty the other 4 games were if it just had Life Is Strange complete. Any progress on your claim?

        • Yeah, I've had a response saying:

          We are sorry that you wish to cancel your order.

          We have forwarded your request to be processed. When we have a confirmation that this is completed, we will write back to you.

          I would have kept it just for Life is Strange complete too to be honest, or possibly FFXIII Lightning Returns

        • @KeeperX: Got the refund.

  • I had none of them. Woot woot

  • pretty sure i have deus ex, anyone got something they want to trade for it?

    How does one apply for a refund? i cant find anything on the square enix eu site?

      Found this in the FAQs:

      Requesting a refund for a digital game?
      You have a 14 day cooling off period in which you can cancel your contract with us. However, once a product has been downloaded/the code has been activated; the cancellation right will be lost.
      For further details, please view the Terms of Use. Section "2.9 Cancellations and refunds".
      To request a refund please contact us via the online form.
      Note: To help us deal with your request, please give details as to why you are requesting a refund.

      I filled in refund form at https://store.eu.square-enix.com/apac_au/help/request-refund…
      It told me to expect a response within 48 hours.

      Refund just came through. Nice.

  • +2

    Damn it I bought this for life is strange complete

  • Pre-ordered this and got the Final fantasy series like I hoped for. Been wanting to collect them all haha. This will be my first 2 and hopefully will get the ball rolling :) Thanks

    Anyway, anybody want the 20% discount codes for Rise of the Tomb raider
    and Just cause 3? Don't think I need it. Lemme know which one you want

  • I didn't have the Sleeping Dogs and I think that alone is worth my 9 dollars so fine by me :D

  • Glad I didnt take the bait with this. Like others I would have taken it if life is strange was on offer.
