2002 had some added scenes, a CG ET and the Politically Correct content.

Perhaps there are 3 versions:
1982
1982a- Altered to a politically correct state, but missing the additional scenes and CG of the 2002 edition
2002


I'm fairly certain that there are only the two versions and that the 1982 version on that set is the original version-- complete with guns and the "terrorists" line. Here's a snippet from Amazon's editorial write-up.

Universal pulled a fast one when they placed both the 1982 and 2002 versions of E.T. on this standard DVD release. The result is an excellent two-disc set that contains nearly all of the material on the higher-priced ultimate edition (minus the handsome packaging).
