Chuck's really been digging Auto Assault and NCsoft has released details on the limited edition. For $10 you get the HS-150 headset from Creative, a soundtrack on CD, access to a remote control car, and all three starter packs for the trading card game. There's no pricing on the subscription yet but I wouldn't expect it to be any different from City of Heroes/Villians. I've been following this game for a while now as I'm a big Autoduel fan so I'm excited to know the game's near release.
