Well, I think I have seen such talk in EGM before. I'm not sure if the EGM
said "they hope the developer to make new four characters", or "there will be
four new characters in Turbo edition". Anyway, I have heard it before. About
the 'Q' edition I thought the 'Turbo' edition is supposed to be the 'Q' edition.The 'Q' thing is something which would make the sound more 3-D and make the
sounds better than ever. I think I have seen the newest GamePro magazine said
the 'Turbo' edition is going to be the added the 'Q' sound.
