Final set of covers.

Eh, I'd go for the Uncharted 2 cover, overall pretty meh last batch. They had a great opportunity for a vintage cover with RDR but oh well.

It's kind of nice to see a game like Fez and Minecraft get magazine covers, even if it has to be after the fact.

I got the Shenmue cover as hoped for its lovely.

I'm my opinion, the N64 is second only to the PS2 among consoles that qualify for this list.

A bit eager aren't they? One of them doesn't have it's 20'th birthday until Dec 10th!

Is there actually anything about Shenmue in the mag?

Not that I noticed :/

I'm going to assume you know about the characters and stages already announced which is mostly what the article talks about. "Ayano insists this isn't just a case of dropping a failed game's models into the engine of one whose appeal endures five years on from its arcade debut" [...] "The absence of SFXT's universal Boost combo system will certainly mean that four of USFIV's five new characters play differently but they sure do look the same" [...] "Until we see the curtain pulled back on USFIV's fifth pugilist it's tempting to see USFIV as Capcom at its most iterative."

Cammy and Akuma will be toned down while buffing up characters at the other end of the tier lists. They want it to be balanced while retaining diversity. (seems obvious to me)

Thanks for the info my good sir.

For the true Edge collector, buy all 20 special editions in our limited edition box set

Look, I'm very fond of computer games, I'm very fond of collecting things. But I think I draw the line at buying 20 copies of the same magazine. Unless the box is very nice

Edge are doing a readers poll to find the 20 best games of the past 20 years: http://www.edge-online.com/news/reader20/

If you enter you can win those 20 versions of the same magazine that mclem has shown above!

Ahhh shame, I'll still buy just for the cover, cheers

Xbox 360 the 2nd best console of the past 20 years?

WHAT A CROCK!

Glad to see Dark Souls get a 10, even if an Edge 10 doesn't mean much anymore.

iOS version is on sale for $2.99 (half price), and you get ALL the covers.

Has it really been 10 years since their 10th anniversary covers? That's scary... this is the only picture I can find of the Metroid cover I've got of that edition, looks real slick.

Not bought Edge in a few years, not much of a fan of their new size format either but I'll have to hunt down a copy of this issue and hopefully find the Shenmue cover.
