Well, as I understand it the box set still to come has stuff that's not in the two disc package that's out now. So you would want to get both anyway, right?
I'm not exactly sure of everything that's in it, but I got the impression that the extended edition will have pretty much everything that's on the 2-disc set...only with lots and lots of other stuff. If so, then it's the current release that is the waste, not the extended edition. It's a pretty sharp marketing strategy, granted ("Hey, let's release an earlier Version with only some of the extra stuff, and people will buy that thinking that it has all of the bells and whistles!"), but it still kind of stinks. I would have happily waited until the extended edition was all finished; I didn't need to be "tided over" for a few months.

Hey, you gotta spend your money on something.
Heh. Too true. I'm currently upgrading my computer now, and it's always fun picking and choosing what new computer goodies to throw my money away on. It's not enough that I waste all of my time on games, I have to throw away my paychecks too. I've just upgraded to 512MB RAM, and now I'm trying to decide if the GeForce 4 is really necessary right now. Then there's the optical mouse I want to get...ack!!
