Yeah I like the fifa +10 one its pretty sweet and you have to give the person cred it is an interesting type of thing to collect though I doubt a better half of those are really rare.

I have a 360 and love it, yet I think that faceplates are the biggest waste of money.

I like the US launch team and Chrome (Chrome - not chromehounds) ones.

I might buy some at $5 each New, but good greif, $20 a shot, I have more ways to spend my money. 130 games for $30, anyone?

$20 is pocket change. Some of the rare ones go for over $100!

I wonder how much you have to pay someone to take a faceplate signed by Cliffy B?

Technically, almost every video game item would fall under that category.

hmm not really, you can get some fun out of playing a game (yes it's true! @_@). Staring at a piece of molded plastic isn't what i call fun, maybe it is to someone else i don't know..

Wouldn't that weigh a ton (not literally)? But you wanna talk about ultimate bragging rights??
"My faceplate, alone, cost me $36,000! So bite me!"

Without the Dead Rising faceplate, that collection is worthless. I have said faceplate, and it is rare![/b][/u]

I've got it too, there's only 500 of them.
Looks like we're a couple out of a select bunch. It's a lovely plate too

Sometimes I hate collectables - some of those are pretty cool, but paying hundreds for a piece of plastic that does nothing but feed my shrunken ego isn't worth it.
Or is it. :evil:

You have to have pre-ordered the Limited Edition Steel Case Dead Rising. The first 500 pre-orders got the faceplate for free.

I have a friend who has a Halo 3 faceplate. I only know of one other. It's be worth a SERIOUS chunk of cash, but there's no way he could ever get away with selling it. Microsoft knows who has them.

Yeah, I think it was a PAL exclusive. Come to think of it, I think only Amazon UK were offering it.
Juganawt: Did you actually receive a limited edition copy of Dead Rising?

I never understood the appeal of faceplates for 360, I mean I guess to me spendind over $20 for a piece of plastic to slap on my 360 is kinda dumb.
However that is the ultimate faceplate collection....I would like to know how much he gets for them...

Yeah I now own 2 copies, one standard (which I prefer), and one LE Steel Case version which I got the faceplate with from Amazon.

Darn! I cancelled my LE pre-order, in favour of the standard release, because it didn't look genuine. I was still able to grab a faceplate, though.
So, why do you prefer the plastic case to the steel case?
