In France there is a pre-order bonus ring if you buy the standard edition.

WTF?

So first of all the "big" Freedom edition doesn't come with everything that's in the Join Or Die, and then to get every bonus you still need to buy the standard game?!

Plus there are like 2 or 3 more editions all over the world.

I'm getting seriously tired of the AC franchise.

Well I bought every expensive edition fro RE5 : US at high price when it went out, Asian edition (with the USB key) and the E-Capcom (although I got this one relatively cheap, 80€ in excellent condition, including the wallet, bonus content still sealed, 48h code unused, the guy just opened the game) but well I would have liked a sealed one.

I just need the Korean edition or whatever country it is from, I recently discovered it, the one with the movie.


And for AC1 my uncle offered me the Limited Edition with the statue, I had no idea about this game and I really loved it, so I bought other editions like the US one and the Euro metal box.


And now they're releasing like 4 collector's editions for each AC and RE game!

But well I made my day anyways, found the Borderlands 2 Loot Chest for regular price!
I didn't want this game at first but since it's a big collector and I found it at regular price I ordered it. :D

Dont forget the Ubisoft Workshop edition. Theres 4 litho art works now included along with the new encyclopedia,the game(of course)a special graphic novel & from what i have found so far a fancy box made to look like a Abstergo Industries file box. More is evidently on the cards to be included. So far i have three different versions pre-ordered & everytime i look theres some other bonus i need to have,i have the pewter figures sorted,i may have a ring lined up,now i find i need a bloody bear claw & two more steelbooks:banghead:

If AC3 wins some award about how many copies they have sold, I'll call it bullshit. So many collectors buying multiple editions just for the bonuses.

For me,it worked out at US$90 inc shipping for just the new encyclopedia or i could buy the Ubiworkshop edition with the Encyclopedia,game etc for US$99 inc shipping. So,that to me was a better deal cost wise. I dont plan on buying anymore editions just for the bonus items but,looking around i see a few of the new steelbooks already listed for $40-$50 each,which is bloody stupid. Especially when these things are normally freebies anyway

Dr_Jengo
09-19-2012, 05:13 PM
Yea the ubiworkshop edition was a good deal. Had to get it too.

Steel books look to be in demand at the moment. Probably why prices are going up. Considered collecting those as well but I'm too much of a perfectionist that I will be depressed if they don't arrive in mint condition.

i refuse to buy into pre-order bonus buying no matter how good they are, i will stick with join or die, seperate connor statue and us steel i have had for a while.

i think its wrong how they have gone about the freedom edition and us equivalant should of had everything the lower editions had.

on that note i would say well done to gearbox and hitman makers as both have 3 versions of borderlands 2 and hitman absolution all includeing what the edition below had.

i suppose there will always be people to buy, but its nice to see when some games have teired editions including all the prior content, that was my biggest gripe that the freedom edition did not include the medallion, hence i went with join or die.

I really need to set rules for my collection : do I buy all pre-order bonuses, do I buy all editions, do I buy all figurines and merchandise?

No really I can't, especially with the AC franchise.

Just for editions, I still need all of these :

AC II Master Edition US
AC Revelations CE (there are some items that are NOT in the Animus Edition!)
AC Brotherhood US Jack in the box (x2, I NEED both versions!)
AC III Join or die
AC III Ubiworkshop
AC III Freedom US version (not the same as Euro!)
AC Ezio Saga Japan

UWS edition will be the rarest I think, but obviously the items in it aren't as "cool" as what is included in the Freedom/US LE for example. So it depends what you're after, rare-ness, or cool-ness for your shelf :) xx

ubisoft claims there version is pre order only..meaning come release day...it's pretty much a presold day 1 package...the impression is no more will be made available if you don't preorder..which indeed makes it sound the most rare and exclusive version of AC III.

10-11-2012, 10:11 PM
See I can see the preorder box, don't know why it didn't appear in my screenshot, must've disappeared before I clicked, but this is all it says for me:

Amazon.com Exclusive Bonus Offer
Pre-order Assassin's Creed III for Xbox360 or Playstation 3 and receive two Amazon-exclusive unlockable items: the Boarding Axe single-player weapon and The Captain Of The Aquila single-player character. The code will be emailed within two days after your order ships. Offer valid when shipped and sold by Amazon.com. Limit one per household. Amazon reserves the right to change or terminate this promotion at any time. Offer will be extended to all existing pre-orders Please read the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live terms of use.


I highly doubt if there is two physical items that they'll be the ring and tooth, just as I highly doubt that the Encyclopaedia edition will be the same as the UbiWorkshop one xx

Was using Allan's Amazon account to contact them, hence why they called me Allan :rotf: xx

Thanks for staying on hold Allan.

I'm actually quite happy that we don't have midnight launches since I never attend such events so I don't miss out. In the worst case maybe just pay some school kid to queue for 24 hrs. :rotf:

I completely agree with you there should only be one version as it makes sense from a business point of view
it makes more sense to have 30 unbranded steel books per store then 15 Xbox and 15 PS3 because if they go with unbranded then the left overs can be used for WiiU preorders

and if its a digipack and branded then how come people who pre order join or die online are getting the steel book also

I can get some of these versions if people would like - they are only for the PC and have the following items:

• The game disc in a special package
• Double-sided map of Boston and New York
• Comic Assassin's Creed The Fall (in Russian)
• A single-mission of "loose ends"; the in-game item "Pirate silicon musket.

The cost would be around 30 to 35 GBP + shipping costs.

Yeah, it's really easy to miss information. It is revealed as you are reliving memories of Subject 16 (Desmond is/was Subject 17) in "The Lost Archives."

And also we thought maybe he was sent to rescue her since her excommunication from the brotherhood

Hmm.. is the controller the official PS3 controller with a design or a custom-made controller?

Twisted
10-30-2012, 05:32 AM
that controller does'nt look official to me at all...plus there was never any "press release" for it...usually a big franchise like this,..when they do special controllers, etc..it's all over blogs etc...when it's the real deal.

Thanx!

Yes, no dents at all, not even at the corners! I'll open it for sure, and eventually I'll post detailed pics. Maybe I'll even do an unboxing video (not very usefull for you guys here cause it will be in Greek and you all gonna say "it's all greek to me" :whew::whew:). However I won't do anything till later tonight when I get back from work!

In the outer package it says that it is 2.35 kgr.

The steelbook from the freedom edition is different from the us preorder...there's no art at the back, it's just silver...

I got my freedom edition yesterday and I compared it and it looks different...

So four different steels...

This edition is awesome in quality-price comparition...

Totally kick ass...

No. Freedom Edition is exclusive to EU regions and US have their own Limited Edition.

There are plenty of post and videos about the different between US Limited Edition and EU Freedom Edition. But I think you are asking the difference between US Freedom and EU Freedom if US Freedom exists.

Freedom Edition is a very quality CE. I just opened mine and I was very, very impressed with the packaging. It's a fantastic package, along with the contents of course.

What I didn't like, is the fact that PS3 versions include a G1 steelbook, with two BD/DVD holdings. :(

Other than that, fantastic CE as usual for the franchise.
