Best or worst, I cannot say, but some worthwhile mentions:

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 NA CE (Nintendo Switch) - It comes with a full size, hard back artbook which you don't see in many CEs of late, a proper appropriately sized steelbook case and a soundtrack CD in a digipak. This ticks all the boxes for me. Perhaps could have been made better by haveing a full OST instead of a Sound selection, but I thought it was a brilliant CE for the $100 pricetag. The PAL version was nice too, but the hardback artbook definitely swung it for me towards the NA version. You did however get a standard game case with the PAL version, which for some is also considered a bonus. :) Some people also say that the PAL edition box was the "premium" box, but I thought it felt flimsy for how it looks. Guess it's all matter of individual taste and opinion. Was still very reasonably priced at £79.99.

Zelda BOTW Masters Edition (Nintendo Switch) - An example of a big, fancy CE to start off a new platform with the console's flagship title. Contents were high quality items. Comes with a nice carry case to protect your new console, based on an item straight from the game world (who can complain about practicale items?), a sound selection CD, coin (I love coins :D), World Map, a copy of the game and a figure to display. What better than a battle scarred Master Sword in the pedestal. Plus I don't think this was overly expensive either. :v:

More to come when I think of them. Those are the first 2 which come to mind immediately for me. :D

I don't have a worst yet... ;P

Worst 2017? Probably the Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite CE:

Worst? I'd vote Prey, simply because they didn't release the CE stateside.

Best? I'd vote Zelda, as it's the only memorable one I can think of from this year. Nothing else really caught my eye and I honestly can't remember any other game that came out this calendar year.

I like the Zelda CE but I wouldn’t say it’s great. For the price, we are getting a small plastic sword that is very soft and bends easily...

I would say my worse has been resident evil 7 in uk as they stopped all orders from original release as too many were broken. Then amazon had it 3-4 months back and each that came were broken also so given up on it... this is just from experience to why I feel it worse.
One of the best is hard between horizon zero dawn, tekken 7 and shadow of war would be my choices

I'll say Persona 5 for best, though I only got a few "big box" CE's this year.

Worst:

Wasn't Persona 5 released last year?

The game was released in Japan in September 2016, and worldwide in April 2017.

Best collector’s edition this year (and all years prior tbh) for me is this monstrosity - Assassin’s Creed: Origins Dawn of The Creed Legendary Edition.

Worst are probably Syberia 3 with this always broken figure and YS Origins from Limited Run Games with it’s poor materials quality.

I really liked the assassins creed CE. Loved the statues and steelbook!

Zelda Breath of the Wilds CE was pretty decent. But nothing mindblowing. It was pretty standard if you ask me. Which isn't a bad thing at all.
