That must be a hell of a figurine for 500$. Even for 40cm this is massive.

Both editions look pretty mediocre to me. I'm also hating the art style more and more with each passing game. 500 for a ce with an ugly statue is crazy.

What do you hate about the art style. Everything is based on medieval art style that existed before. Probably one of your ancestors wore those knight armor back the :P

it used to be medieval, now its just one bad enemy/boss design after another. This looks bloodborned out. I mean what are those statues even supposed to be of?

Not too sure about Red Knight, but Lord of Cinder is the final boss of Dark Souls.

Its already up for preorder in the middle east.
I agree with the design getting worse and worse, it seems that theyre greying out everything, how about adding some firey elements to the lord of cinder atleast (epic boss in ds1)
Same thing i felt with mkX, they took the word "darkness" too literally, and forgot about how to implement colors within the element of darkness (its hard to explain, but the characters used to be so unique, now not so much)

Thank you, they also need to evolve these games. I've been feeling assassin's creed syndrome while playing and barely make it through a play through without getting bored.

Why? There is no point to make like 20000 copies with 450€ price tag.

price wise yes. What I meant was: when an edition is very limited, middle east distributors aren't given any, that's why it was strange that the uae website (geekaygames.com) posted it and then removed it. I've used geekaygames a lot, and they almost never get the "rarer versions"
If 2000 are made, priority is for eastern Asian countries, Europe, and America's (sometimes Australia), this is only what I've noticed

If it's made out of polystone or another high end material it may be worth it. Other statues from the likes of Sideshow & Hot Toys are similarly priced.

The guide looks cheap too me, thin "starter" booklet (seems like an instruction manual) - nothing like the witcher guides for the early 2 games. Plus it prima so expect subpar quality =/
Not a deal breaker for me, and imho think the EU got the better of the versions this time around

ps4 edition looks like it got sold out on amazon uk
xbox one and pc still available.
I managed to order the xbox one edition, will switch it to ps4 if they are made available again
a suggestion to those who want it shipped internationally. Put in a fake uk address and then change it later to anyone who can help you? Not sure how much of a hassle that would be
also, the price is high, but both figures are included so its justifiable i think.
EDIT: PS4 Edition is up!
The price is lower than on ES or FR Amazon btw.

The Dark Souls 3 Prestige Edition is now LIVE to pre-order on Amazon.co.uk for PS4, XboxOne, and PC. The price currently listed is a whopping £292.11 for all formats! No telling whether that will be brought down to something more reasonable (could be placeholder price), but with the rumoured rarity of this edition it's not unthinkable to assume that this is the actual price! I would suggest keeping a look-out on Namco-Bandai's social media feeds for more information regarding whether this is the actual price or not...
Release date given is the 12th of April 2016

Good to see it's finally up. Also in regards to international shipping, many times Amazon have done this for a certain period then I guess 'changed the rules' down the track & international shipping is allowed.
Normally by then it's too late & it's sold out. I suggest put a fake UK address in then down the track before release try & change it to your proper address, it should accept it. This has always worked for me in the past with a few CE's I've bought so hopefully it's the same deal now.

It was Amazon.de. It was 336 Euros and I upgraded to Global Priority which came to 360 Euros. I could of chose the cheaper shipping, to keep it under 350, but that was slow as hell.
It translates to around 400 dollars vs if I had got the UK version which was over 600 due to the Pound to Dollar rate.

It's no available to preorder from EBGames Aus...yet. :2cool:
Thanks matrix. I'm asking a member here to help me order it. Since amazon cancelled my order :(
You know approximately when eb games Aus might open the pre order?

BTW for fellow aussies,
RRP is $799 AUD. JB Hi-Fi preorder is finished and only EB games left.
$799, what a rip!
$200 Australia tax included... :swoon:

We've been hard at work here trying to figure that out, using algorithms and magic 8 balls but with no such luck :hammer:
We have a few theories though, one of them being, EBGames making a huge dramatic announcement on social media and only available online with the new and improve 1 per customer "restrictions". :1:
Be very aware the shipping cost for these will be astronomical for standard people like us, and will need an extra box within a box with a blanket to make sure the goods are good! :)

Damn.. sounds like you will need some luck to even score one in Aussie.. on top of that crazy taxes!
But I got no choice. Since amazon cancelled my order... and I have been wanting to get this one since it was first announced.
wish i knew a way to have it imported from UAE http://www.geekaygames.com/

Try to ask him :)
I have my order from amazon.es and I am surprised to learn that people who managed to grab one from amazon.de are paying over 100 euros less. What the hell? I am in a very bad financial situation and I'm not sure if I will even keep my order and but knowing the spanish website sold it for so much more doesn't help.
And this is really strange. Even the Amazon UK had it cheaper when converted GBP currency to EUR. Doesn't Amazon have something like "Lower price guarantie"? At least shoudn't be the price across Amazon sites on the same price level? :hammer:

Each Amazon is it's own separate company in a sense (from country to country/region).

I think that the shipping limitations you mention are a big hindrance and the market is probably small where they sell. Plus, when you preorder from somewhere like Amazon, you know you will either get the game or if you don't, you are not charged and their return policies are pretty cut and dry.
With larger sellers, as long as you get your order in reasonably quick, you also generally get what you order, not a "we are sorry" email the day before when they find out they only got 5 instead of 50. Overselling stock happens at all levels, but I have had more issues with small sellers not getting what they hoped for and having to cancel.
They may be completely legit, but it wouldn't be a purchase that inspired confidence in me.

Pretty sure they charge the full amount up front as well, which would also hinder mass buying..

Also, the reason why it "doesn't sell on geekay"
1) online ordering of video games is not a common thing in the middle east, collectors from here already use other western or eastern websites.
2) Geekaygames are not very smart or game savvy, it's a business for them
3) it could be a lot more common than we think (if this store is selling it haha)
Edit: 4) their online housekeeping might be bad and allowed people to order more than what they have in Stock (but I really think that not many people use their online system)

THISSSS :taunt:
I check my email every once in a while to see if they canceled my order. I don't know why I think they are incompetent, maybe because they leaked the pictures for the prestige and after being official they didn't update the prestige's picture.
My ultimate nightmare is that, they may cancel my order the day of the release. :suicide:

I think the worst thing is that every division of Namco Bandai seems to run itself and there really hasn't been a clear communication from the parent company about it. A simple press release saying "how many/where it will be sold/when" would of been nice, but if there is one, I haven't found it.

I know that I'm new and everything, but should someone have a spare PE (especially for PS4), I'd be more than interested.
The same applies for any advice on how to successfully monitor the various Amazon pages and get that sweet 3 second gap of "Product Available" that some seem to have seized somehow.
Venger
12-16-2015, 11:24 PM
Yes, Prestige is limited to 2000 copies worldwide.
Surprisingly, I don't think many of these got scooped up by scalpers. I only saw the one "Buy It Now" for like 765 USD and that was it. I expected people to be trying to flood Ebay with them, even if Ebay was cancelling auctions and looked to see people asking like 1500 or so. Maybe the initial price may of run off the scalpers?
It will be interesting to see how they track in price. I remember the Signature Edition of Amalur selling for 2500 USD a couple times after release, which sank a good deal after 38 Studios imploded. (Though there is one on Ebay now for an ambitious 3000 USD, lol) That was only a run of 300 (give or take since they oversold a few) with big name signatures on it, but it was a non proven IP. The Souls series is established with a rabid fanbase, but if there are 2000 of these, then it isn't near as rare.

First of all, I'm bumping to ask if anyone here has any news regarding the Prestige edition availability. Namco-Bandai seems to have conveniently forgotten about it on its various twitter accounts.
Secondly, even though I'm not counting on it, I'd like to point out to anyone that was able to preorder more than one copy and that has not cancelled it or passed it to someone else, that I would be more than willing to get it -which seems to me a little better than feeding scalpers on eBay-.
