This is what the UK box looks like (but without the 25% off label of course):
And this is the US version:
Why did they make that arm change? Also which version looks better IYO.

I think the US box version looks best, that arm makes a big difference.

The UK version is supposed to have a better interface. I have US which I think looks much better than the UK box. A game is not a game without that little rating in the corner.

Wow, they completely redid the pauldrons of that guy in the UK version...why would they decide to change the little bit of armor on the guys shoulder?
Anyway, I dont see why people care about the box art...you think that because the box art is different, then things ingame might also be a bit different?
Yeah this thread is kinda pointless. I was just wondering why they bothered to chop off his arm.Wow, they completely redid the pauldrons of that guy in the UK version...why would they decide to change the little bit of armor on the guys shoulder?

i think that they are not actually UK/US versions after all just late and early versions. After a couple of weeks of producing the game they must of decided that it looked better without the arm and chopped it off. So there are some of first editions of the game out there but mostly the latter one. As the UK gets things later we would of got the later edition thats why i believed that they were divided by what country it was made for.

westy you may be right, cuz i too have the "uk" version and I don't live in the uk. Wrong side of the atlantic.

I have the US version, I think it looks better with the arm. It looks like he is commanding, as opposed to standing arround doing nothing. But in the end it really doesn't matter in the least.
