That's a picture of the Ultima Ascension Dragon Edition, which cost about 120USD at the time it was released.
you are wrong, the picture is from the normal version - that i bought. it costed 70sFr. at that time in switzerland (80 DM or 40US$). now talking about the dragon edition pal... Normal Edition:
-Ultima IX install CD
-Ultima IX play CD
-Ultima Online: The Second Age Game CD (with one month free membership)
-The "Journal" booklet (all about the ultima universe, the avatar, history and so on)
-The "Book of Magic" booklet (all about the magic in the ultima universe)
-The Install booklet (the regular game booklet)
-8 Virtue Tarot Cards
-40cm x 40cm Cloth Map of Britannia (i guess made out sinthetic fibres, because it looks and feels very silky)
-"Gobelin of Time" (a mirrorfinish piece of paperboard, with the gobelin of time on one side, and help about the game controls on the other)
Dragon Edition:
-all the content from the normal version
-the "journal" and "the book of magic" have a sinthetic leather cover
-an ankh pendant that can be attached to a necklace and worn
-the ultima collection CD that contains Ultimas I through VIII, including Ultima VII add ons: Forge of Virtue and Silver Seed
-The Ultima IX Soundtrack
-A high quality illustration reprint of the ascending avatar
-a certificate from richard garriotwhat do you say eh?
I wasn't aware of that, guess that's for the US version only. I saw a "Normal Edition" a friend of mine bought, but it didn't have anything like the stuff in the Dragon Edition I bought - probably the usual "European Version", sigh. However, the trend towards cutting distribution and manufacturing costs by the publishers remains. Most games in europe come in DVD boxes already, while the US market to have settled for those smaller cardboard boxe for now - not much space for anything special in there (unless you create a special edition).
