Update: Prototype 2 Limited Edition AND Collectors Edition

[Anjelaoni]

Again a "Not So Special Edition". Why? Well, just some digital content. Chances are bad for a Collectors Edition, but there is still time to change that, right Activision?

http://www.gamesxd.com/juegosgratis/2012/02/15/confirmada-la-edicion-coleccionista-de-prototype-2/

Just reserved it right now...!!! Like some artbook and ost with special package...

[Gomes]

Im really looking for this Collector's edition, looks great.

[Wheeks]

Always a little disappointed when CE's just go the default route of Artbook/CD (stuff they produced to make the game anyway) + Digital Content (a slightly annoying trend that has developed in recent years).

Nevertheless, the design looks sharp! Prototype 1 was a fun game, so hopefully this will be too.

[vhal_x]

Is this only available in Canada? Or will PAL regions have it too? xx

Looks like Japan and Asia are getting this edition aswell:

For anyone getting the Radnet edition, having a nose at the ones in work. The PS3 edition is fully sealed, but on the Xbox version, only the game is, not the sleeve. Looks like the entire first batch is the Radnet edition as well.

[Gemini-Phoenix]

The Blackwatch Edition is another one of those bigger-than-it-needs-to-be cardboard clamshell boxes, similar to the MW3 Hardened Edition, albeit not as big. It also has a vertical cardboard slipcover over the top

HMV rather stupidly shipped mine wrapped in one layer of bubblewrap anda grey plastic bin bag, via Yodel. Again. Needless to say, it arrived with every single corner dented as well as side dents. So disappointed right now :(

Ironically, GAME have since gotten stock in, so I could have kept my original order and they would've shipped in a suitable box. FML!

[Pielord]

Or could have ordered it off amazon. I did and its in perfect condition. Plus I got it for £50.

[vhal_x]

I got mine for £50 from Amazon aswell, still waiting on it though, doubting it's gonna show up today xx

It is a similar box in general, but not nearly that big. I completely agree with the comments regarding MW3, but I think this one is just fine (and a nice CE as well).

Yeah I agree with you. MW3 was far too big but I think this one is just right.

[Gemini-Phoenix]

It's pretty disappointing that the retailers still can't get the packaging right for these things. People have been reporting GAME shipping in boxes too small, whereas HMV simply wrapped one sheet of bubblewrap around it and put in a grey plastic bin bag. You'd think that if they're going to sell these items, they'd have adequate packaging to do so...

I also don't see why we should be expected to make-do with what we receive. Such items are intended primarily for the collector demographic, and their condition upon receiving them should be suitable for a collector. What collector would gladly accept a £60-£70 CE which is dented? If I'm paying that kind of money for a single item, I expect it to be in the best possible condition it could be!

Hoping that Amazon have packed mine well - hoping it shows up today :P Forgot to pay for the "Release Date" shipping, grr! xx

That's another thing. Amazon. Why the fuck should you have to pay extra to receive the item on release day? They have their stock weeks in advance, so why can they not send all pre-orders out in good time to arrive on release day? Why should this be an additional service? What is the point in pre-ordering an item months in advance only to have to wait for them to deliver it late, or be forced to pay extra to have it on release?

[vhal_x]

I know, especially as it's a relatively new shitty thing that they've implemented. If I click to receive on release day, they ship it a few days before, maybe between 4 and 7 days before (depending if there is a weekend in the middle) whereas if you don't pay for fast shipping, they ship on the day before release!

Which is obviously so they are intentionally not gonna get it to you on release :( And they no doubt use the same shipping method so it's not costing them any more to get it to you on release, they just ship it a bit earlier :( xx

This is the reason i went for Amazon Prime, with the amount of stuff my family gets from Amazon, their prime service is great - received my Prototype CE 2 days ago

Also you can link up to 4 addresses as well, £49 is a bit steep but worth it in my opinion

[vhal_x]

Yeah, if I ordered more from Amazon, I'd completely go for Prime without hesitation, but I only buy CEs from there if they are a better price, exclusive, or sold out elsewhere - so not very often tbh, well - not often enough to justify the price.

I've just received my Prototype 2 CE now :D Mint condition, very pleased :D xx

I ordered this last Monday morning from a small games company in Slough by the name of Segasykes via Amazon. Here's a pleasant (for a change) online experience that I thought i'd share with you - given all the online bullshit of last year.

I bought this and the Streetfighter X Tekken Special Edition for £46 and £36 respectively, shipped. Got an email on the afternoon confirming shipment and received the SF X Tekken SE by recorded on Tuesday morning.

When the Blackwatch Edn hadn't arrived by Friday I mailed Segasykes who confirmed that Royal mail had, indeed, "lost" it and informed me that they'd shipped out a replacement via fedex on "next working day" delivery which means i'll have it by Monday.

I was really astonished at how quick they acted and i would recommend this company to everybody. They told me they valued return business which is why they moved so quickly.

Can you imagine the farting around with GAME, Play.com, Shopto or Zavvi it would have caused ??

Nice to know that smaller companies actually practice customer service these days :bday:
