Assassin’s Creed Revelations will get a Black Edition. Well it is not that great as the one for Assassin’s Creed II but it is also much cheaper. The Black Edition of Assassin’s Creed will come in a lavishly designed, handmade wooden box including unique Assassin’s Creed metallic branding.
The Edition is available at Gamesonly.at for PC, PS3 & Xbox 360 at a price of €49.99/€59.99 – The PS3 Game also includes Assassin’s Creed I.
Assassin’s Creed will be out on November 15th, 2011 for PS3 & Xbox 360 and in December 2011 for PC
If you pay close attention to the news you’ve probably caught wind of the Limited Edition of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection that has been announced for the North American market. I’ve received dozens of emails on the subject so I figured I better post up the news.
Available for the PS3 and Xbox 360 the Limited Edition includes the standard edition of the release along with what looks like a fairly substantial hard-cover Art Book. This makes for a fairly simple LE release though the large box that will house the two items was designed by Yoji Shinkawa.
While this wont be nearly as sought after as the very quickly sold out Zavvi exclusive SteelBook variant of this release, it would make an excellent pickup for any fan of the series.
Slated for release on November 8th you can pre-order through Amazon.com [PS3] [Xbox 360] or pretty much any other game retailer for about $80.

Apparently GearBox is planning to offer a Collector’s Edition for their upcoming game Borderlands 2 (due out sometime in 2012). Not only are they planning to offer a CE they’ve asked the community to help them decide what to include!
You can send them your ideas on the official GearBox forum.
Me personally I told them I don’t care what they include for bonuses as long as the packaging is high quality. I figure I spend more time looking at it sitting on the shelf than anything else, so it might as well be worth looking at.
As most may know already there will be a decent Collector’s Edition for Sonic Generations for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation3. Well, better late than never.

Many of you wrote it to tell us about a wired article showing off leaked advertisement info for the upcoming Hardened Edition of Modern Warefare 3.
The photo shows the BBFC rating logo meaning this is likely information on the UK release (although if past COD CEs are any indication all versions internationally are the same). While not specifically mentioned it seems that again, like past COD releases, it will include a SteelBook case for the game disc itself.
Explicitly mentioned is the following content:
1 year of Call of Duty: “Elite” Membership
Special “Founder” status, which profiles you with exclusive:
in-game emblem
player card
weapon camouflage
clan xp boost
other benefits
PSN animated timeline theme
Xbox Avatar Special Ops Juggernaut Outfit.
A Field journal with 100+ pages of authentic military sketches, diagrams and written entries chronicling the Modern Warfare saga.
What seems most peculiar to me is that Activision has waited so long to mention details on this release and the inevitable Prestige Edition, even after this leak they refused to comment. Most likely they are simply waiting for the Call of Duty Convention occurring this weekend. We’ll post up details once they’re available.
Christian Hancock tipped us off to a very nicely done unboxing video for the upcoming Uncharted 3 Drake’s Deception Collector’s Edition. Not only is this a professionally filmed video put up by SCEA but it stars Nolan North (the voice actor who plays Nathan Drake). Even if you’re not an uncharted fan it’s worth watching just for Mr North’s wise cracks about the CE’s design features…
