[tristard]

Seems like the console version sells for around $99, but this information is not confirmed yet.

[Matrix6]

Apparently all standard Pre-order copies will automatically be upgraded to the 'Limited Edition' at no extra charge :)

[Solemn_In_Berlin]

Would have loved a physical copy of the soundtrack but oh well.

That replica mask looks amazing in that promotional picture. Hope we get to have the same measure of quality with the real thing.

[The Russian Bear]

F**king digital soundtracks, can't stand that kind of BS.

[Letrico]

bloody awesome mask

[tristard]

F**king digital soundtracks, can't stand that kind of BS.
oh yes, totally agree!

[Matrix6]

Can already be pre-ordered at THQ Store http://store.thq.com/store/thq/en_US/list/categoryID.57907600/

PS3/Xbox360 @ US$99.99
PC @ US$79.99

[jugolicious]

awesome!!

[thefunk007]

No PC version?

[Matrix6]

No PC version?

Yes, there will be PC version.:swoon:

[tristard]

maybe those two "darksiders II CE" threads can be merged or this thread deleted?
more comments in the other thread, so please ignore this one. cheers ;)

[questate]

Is this available for pre-orders in UK?

[Ceohai]

Is this available for pre-orders in UK?

European release and THQ.com store details to follow.

And here I was thinking that THQ wouldn't be releasing any CEs in the near future, glad to be proven wrong.

[Ayiu]

They offer shipping in every damn land but not to Germany.....What's wrong Oo

[Matrix6]

Hey! Australia is also excluded!! I think it's because of both our ratings system :banghead: We don't have an R18+ and normally Germany needs to approve of an 'un-cut' edition :S [even NZ is permitted to order from there]

So we wait for inflated Aussie prices here.

Argh you are probably right.....but the console versions will also be available from amazon.com and gamestop.com and I never had any problems with them even if the german version was censored or indexed :-)

[Matrix6]

It's a THQ Store, so they have to take responsibilities :S
I'm not fussed, we all know we'll get a copy one way or another ;) *internet hi-5*

[thefunk007]

No PC version on the website though!

[vhal_x]

WANT! THQ said they'll be announcing details of the European release soon :) xx

[Matrix6]

No PC version on the website though!
It's in the US site, PAL region will be updated at a later stage.
http://store.thq.com/store/thq/en_US/list/categoryID.57907600/

It's probably cheaper to get it there than the UK site.

[Vikingo82]

The same to Spain...they ship to all the fucking countries in Africa and not to Spain/germany...

Cannot understand.

Any other website to preorder this edition?

[tristard]

I also don't get it... why they don't release all the information at the same time for every country?!

[vhal_x]

Can't wait for the PAL region update :) Will be preordering ASAP! xx

[Raasclark]

Yeah me too. Wish there was someway of getting a news alert on my phone...

[vhal_x]

I get email updates to my phone everytime someone comments on a thread I've posted in :) Comes in handy xx

[Raasclark]

I do get email updates, but they seem to be infrequent. Like I get one for the initial reply, but not there after, hmmm...

[vhal_x]

You'll get an email reply after each time you reply, so I tend to come on again and even just leave a basic reply so I'll get an update again the next time :) xx

[Raasclark]

But doesn't that enter the realms of spam bumping? I've found forums in the past to hate that sort of thing. I myself am happy to do so, so - "reply" :P

[vhal_x]

Yeah I don't mean like just reply for the sake of it on everything haha :) I just mean like if the reply that I received the email for is interesting, I'll reply to it, which then means I'll get another email if another reply comes in :)

Believe me, I post enough as it is, if I was to post after every single reply I'd never get a second to myself! :rotf: xx

[Wheeks]

Definitely looks interesting - it's the mask that sells it for me. I like it when CEs try and do something a bit different.

I always love seeing elements from games brought out into the real world like that.

Is this definitely getting a UK CE release?

[RyT]

cant preorder anymore.. it says out of stock :S

[tristard]

cant preorder anymore.. it says out of stock :S
uuh! now I really hope for a european CE... :S

[twistedsymphony]

*** Added CE and LE editions for USA ***

[Raasclark]

Is this actually confirmed to be coming to europe?

[gurpswoo1]

Just that they will be announcing something soon.

[Matrix6]

[RyT]

ooo nice find Matrix6 :D:D

now to go with Amazon or Ebgames :S

sure viking just pm me whenever

EDIT: one thing though, the death rides pack is already in the CE, wonder why EBgames say preorder to get it again lol??

[Matrix6]

This might help you choose;
@amazon:
Shipping: Currently, item can be shipped only within the U.S. and to APO/FPO addresses.

So, you would need someone to forward it to you or order it yourself at gamestop?!

[RyT]

:S i might just sent it to forwarding company :S.. gamestop too expensive for expedited.. :D the fc i used charge 25 USD using DHL.

[RyuShinEX]

maybe singapore is getting it too.

[Wheeks]

So has the US CE now sold out and we are waiting on an update re Europe?

[zhaff2004]

I think I'm the only one who doesn't like that mask?! :swoon:

[tristard]

seems so... I like the design. :P

[Monstermug]

Will THQ ship to the UK? I tried to register but got stuck on the payment page as UK is not displayed in the registration page.

[Viridius]

[Dymblos]

[Legendhawk]

Can someone help me with the preorder with this one :) ?

[euphoriapt]

Mine CE is already ordered !!!

[Viridius]

I hope the mask looks like this!

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7177/6956159695_a088066e1d_o.jpg

[Letrico]

isnt that the real picture from darksiders 2 studio?

[Viridius]

Its the promo mask THQ sent out to the media earlier this year.

Looks very similar to the image in the CE though, so heres hoping!

[Dymblos]

the CE Mask is just hard plastic

[Viridius]

yeah, I'm expecting it to be plastic too, however if it looks awesome, I don't really care what its made of.

[Lemur]

They should have used real bone. Now that would be totally unique! :beer:

[Saturn]

It will probably just look like overpriced crap like the Saint Seiya Head Gear Edition. I bet my life on this.

[rapister]

seems like i can only find this on gamestop US and EB games AU

[TheVoidDragon]

Is there no place in the UK to get the Collectors edition? I haven't seen anywhere that has it.

[NoScruffyNo]

[jasonwall]

It looks very cool.it must be very interesting.

[thefunk007]

Can't seem to order from Germany 'says sign up to when it's available on all platforms'

[vhal_x]

That means it will be sold out on all platforms in Germany probably, especially if it was available to preorder before now (which I'm sure it was) xx

[Ayiu]

Yeah but even on Amazon its 109.99 plus shipping, so 97 is a better deal for me

[eva_pro]

i love this edition but i miss a steelbook.

[TMM]

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,

Poor THQ... One of my favourite developers, hopefully Darksiders will find a home...

Check out my photo unboxing here of the Collector's Edition. (http://manmountaindesigns.co.uk/index.php/games/unboxing/111-darksiders-2-collector-s-edition-unboxing)

Death wears a mask!

Hi guys,

That's correct unfortunately. IGN did a good run down of events with some updates from the heads but also a breakdown on where some of the assets were heading.

Can be found here. (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/23/thq-dissolved-saints-row-company-of-heroes-darksiders-devs-acquired)

On top of that though there have been further updates, Darksiders (and more specifically Vigil Games) haven't found a home yet... but there is still hope, as can be seen here. (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/24/platinum-games-considering-buying-darksiders-ip)

It's basically looking like Platinum Games are showing some interest in the guys from Vigil and the Darksiders IP.

So Crytek does have some of the THQ guys, but they've been spread all over the place and unfortunately a good 200+ people have lost their job - very sad and, as mentioned before, one of my favourite developers!

Regards
TMM

I saw theres two versions. One has that clear plastic to see the mask and second has mask hidden in box. Is there any other differences?

[Saturn]

Yes, the one with the plastic window is inferior to the Premium Edition in every single way, from the package to the quality of the mask. The Premium edition is numbered individually and exclusive to France.

[Platfus]

Thanks guys. I will hunt for UK one no since its still available somewhere and will try to get french later. Thanks :)

[Vikingo82]

And the quality materials... The one with plastic window is plastic made...

The premium is like 400 gr. More or less...very high quality materials...

And just the package is a whole world in difference...

[Vikingo82]

Thanks guys. I will hunt for UK one no since its still available somewhere and will try to get french later. Thanks :)

I bought one new in amazon.fr for ps3 just for 60 euros mate!!!

Keep an eye on amazon.fr couse sometimes they used to appear...

You won't regret for the wait. Don't waste your money on the other one...really don't deserve it for more than 35 euros...

I would wait for an amazon.fr madness deal...

[vhal_x]

I got the French one on release, so glad I did as they rarely pop up for a decent price nowadays xx

[Platfus]

Theres one premium for 35 eur used. I'd like a ps3 though.
Theres ps3 new for 60 and 75 from amazon itself

[Vikingo82]

Theres one premium for 35 eur used. I'd like a ps3 though.

If it's premium that 60 CE, get it. With no doubt.

You won't regret. Trust me.
