I have 3 issues of EDGE magazine presents FILE, 3 thick issues (red, blue & yellow covers) each has the "best of" articles from the 1st 3 volumes of the UK EDGE gaming magazine (1993-94, 94-95, 95-96).

Wondering if any further EDGE presents FILE similar compendiums exist? An eBay search gave no results.

There have been a few EDGE specials over the years. There's two issues of 'Retro' that I have, also the 'Essential Hardware Guide 2000' and four issues of 'Equip': PC, Gamecube, PlayStation2 and Xbox.

I'm sure there's others, like a collection of best game reviews or the such.

Edit: In fact, here's a Wikipedia entry on EDGE and the special issues (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_(magazine)#Special_issues). I'm certain that list is incomplete though.

Hopefully there will be 'Equip' issues for Wii, PlayStation3 and Xbox 360. I also think DS and PSP are quite deserving too.

youre an awesome human being. thank you.

(sorry for the thread jack)

for what its worth, the EDGE special editions are all excellent, overall EDGE is one of the (if not THE) best gaming mag out there.

I don't believe a 4th one came out. I picked up 1-3 and "Edge Presents The 100 Best Videogames" (2007). I almost picked up "Edge Presents The Art Of Videogames" (2007), but I don't recall it being that impressive.

1 copy to Rest of World: £12.00

Wow, and I thought $13 USD at Barnes and Nobles was an okay deal.

Isn't there a new EDGE special just released that was exclusive to WH Smith (Newsagent here in the UK)?...

Hmm, wait... that was for Retro Gamer Magazine...
