Content list of GW:EN retail package 

QUOTE
Players have asked about the contents of the retail version of Guild Wars: Eye of the North. The box contains the following items:

        * Guild Wars Client DVD
        * Access Key Booklet
        * 16-page Mini Manual
        * Map Poster (11 in x 17 in NA; 600 mm x 360 mm Europe) 



so you won't get this if you buy it online ;-)

it'd be cool if the mini manual and map came as a .pdf in email confirmation of purchase.

I completely agree since there is no packaging or shipping cost...

I do not think they will add any weapons or minis to a non-Ce Edition.

Well, take this into consideration, you may not get all the little things that someone gets who bought it in the store, but you dont have to worry about it being sold out etc, so i'd pay the normal price at the online store to get a copy 100%, but they should reduce the factions and proph prices, i was at the store the other day and noticed that they are like $30/$40 and still $50 on the online store, but meh i guess thats how anet makes some money too. :)

I say no on that. Yeah it won't be sold out but you don't get all the things that most of the gamers want. The online store is only good for people who already have the content packs.

As in making a second account and so forth. If I can go to a store and get a box with like 10 xtra things inside then buy online for same price and get nothing but the code then it is not worth it.

True, but, not only do we get less for buying it in the online store, but anet also gets more money. With the hard copies of the game box, they have to pay the cost of getting it in the stores and getting all the other items. I would rather have the store limited to like 1000 copies a week, and be able to get it for like $10 less, than have to pay full price just to be able to get a copy with nothing extra.

The whole reason they did the online store was to make more money, which makes sense, but they could sell it for cheaper than box sets and make the same amount of money.

I doubt it because theres no new professions, and its not a full campaign, its a simple expansion.

Guys you really think the Bonus Missions Package is free content? Explain higher online store price to me then.

YOU GET EXTRA CONTENT, BY BUYING ONLINE.


THE BONUS MISSIONS.


Stop talking about what you don't get and, talk about you do get. Just me but I look at the map for 5 minutes and flip through the min-manual < 30 minutes.

Bonus Mission at least an hour of fun.

Looks like a no brainer to me.

BONUS MISSIONS FTW

RE: Content list of GW:EN retail package 

Since its an expansion which requires you to have another campaign already, you dont need the manual, disc or trial keys. The only thing that would be new and "usable" would be the map which is basically a prophecies map with a bit stuck on top. In contrast, if you buy the online version, you dont get the worthless annoying bits that youre gna lose or are gna make the place untidy and instead you get some extra missions that people who got the map cannot get unless they buy extra character slots, which is pointless, or PvP unlock packs, which is a waste of money since theyre easy to unlock anyway and itll help u improve more if u mnually unlock them.
In my opinion, they should sell the bonus mission pack in shops so that anyone who wants them can get them but I doubt ANet will do that.
