I'm disappointed they've decided not to include "DB: Messiah". I thought that was absolutely super, and I'd love to hear it with audio commentary!

I wish they included Messiah and The Gathering; I don't see the point in leaving them out. Unless they have a long-term, moneymaking plan to release the other two at a future date.

meaning that Messiah has been missed out. Amazon's also dropped its price to £17.98, and it'll be released on 3rd November according to them.


Release date and price is old news, but its nice to finally know whats on the set. I checked the other day and I was beginning to feel concerned as to whether it would be out on time given the lateness of detail.

The Heist and Russian Roulette are ones that I really wanted to see so that'll be cool. The system won't be so amazing and the seance I remember watching so its not as exciting either.

Messiah would've been great, im not sure i remember what the gathering was.
I imagine though, that there could very well be another set at a later date. And before then, we still have trick of the mind 3 to come.

EDIT*
It's being listed as one disc which is disappointing, if only because it means there will be little to no extras.
Also, at that RRP, you'd expect a little more than a one disc "box set".

Hmm, I'm sure it was listed on Amazon as having two discs a couple of days ago. And you're right, one disc does not a box set make. (Not in my opinion at any rate).

Surely they are just milking it for the cash-cow that it is?

I'm sure there will be a double-disc soon. And a follow up "box set" of the ones not included. And potentially a follow up set with extras.

Nah. An additional release maybe, but not an expanded edition of this one.

By which I mean they may release the other special at a later date, but i cant see them rereleasing this one with further material.
