the bonus disc is called Namco Transmissions V1.03, as opposed to the V3.2 disc that comes with Soul Calibur III. And just like SC3, there's no indication whatsoever that it's included. Just when you open the case it's one of those 2-disc cases with the bonus disc in there as a surprise.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon
Gamestop gave me a free Metal Case Mortal Kombat because they could not find the disc. I remember noise had one for sale a while ago, I bought Deception Double Pack from him but not Armageddon. I knew about the PS2 Mortal Kombat Double and Triple Packs. I was curious about how the regular plastic case looked and discovered something interesting! :shock:

Added Lego Star Wars. There is a size difference between the regular blue CD release versus the Greatest Hits DVD version. Both install with HDAdvance, for some reason the DVD version takes up more room. I think its the way HDAdvance sets DVD installs at 1gb blocks, but just maybe additional content in the newer release?

Lego Star Wars (Black Label is 640mb CD / Greatest Hits is 1gb DVD)

Thanks, updated the OP.

Soul Calibur II (2nd Disc Namco Transmissions V1.03 Demo)
Soul Calibur III (2nd Disc Namco Transmissions V3.2 Demo)


Oh crap, I have to dig thru the cases and see which disc I am missing. A collectors work is never done. :D

Look into Ed,Edd and Eddy (maybe spelled wrong) but I remember along time ago coming across a copy with a bonus 2nd disc.
If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.
