lol.."limited availbility" :D...if i had a dollar for everytime somebody said that when it came to video games collector editions...it's a nice piece..would like to know how many will be made?..50,000?..250,000 worldwide?...i think there should be some sort of consumer protection laws in place..that limited edition cannot be more than lets say 20% of total production of this game title etc.

Oooo, Resin! :D Hand-painted too? :P Think I might just have to pre-order it...

[Saturn]

I wasn't impressed. And when somethign like this is very limited it basically means there will be several 1000s, sometimes 10000s.

[kennyrh]

Yeah, but you've gotta buy it.

Can you imagine a serious CE collection without this :thumb:

not even for a Scooby snake?

Shirley you can't be serious
60 for a statue
Yea I'm not getting it new
I'm waiting for game to slash the price on this
Or maybe they'll see the error of there ways and sell the statue seperately for 50

[comaamen86]

depends how it sells retailer exclusive an all, the resi 6 six ce is going down quicker than audley but i think the bio will be more limited methinks , depends how fast children can paint these days

[LowlyAssassin]

I don't think it's a game exclusive I think they just have UK retail rights
But thats just a guess

[comaamen86]

yep other countries have it but uk is game only would be expensive to import without free shipping if game sold out

[LowlyAssassin]

Damn you game and your apauling customer service
Game sell out of an item don't make me laugh

i speak only for my local game and webstore as i am sure there are many good game stores and staff, but they are a bunch of fucking chimps who wear the pre-order shirt at the same time as telling you they run out.

Manager

Couple of weeks later

Manager looks away and continues working

Yep. Same thing happened with my local GAME, formerly Gamestation.

Me: Can I have a Halo 4 steelbook please?
Store Monkey: They're for display.
Me: What if I pre-order the game?
Store Monkey: Yeah, OK then.
Me: OK, I'll pre-order a copy.

-Pre-orders Halo 4-

Me: Can I have a steelbook now?
Store Monkey: No.
Me: Why not? You said I could if I pre-ordered.
Store Monkey: They're point of sale display items and are not for sale.
Me: But you have loads.
Store Monkey: Yeah and they're for display for customers to see to entice them to pre-order the game.
Me: Even the other ones which are behind the front row of steelbooks?
Store Monkey: Yes.
Me: What do you do with them after the game is released?
Store Monkey: They get thrown away.
Me: So why can't I can't I have one?
Store Monkey: They're point of Display...
Me: Fuck off you prick... -_-

-Leaves store infuriated-

The end! :beee:

Also got a LBP shirt, Halo Reach shirt and Dragon Quest! :D

Got quite a few posters too, but I'm not too sure where they are! lol

[LowlyAssassin]

I want to have a job there so I can get paid for being mean and rude to people

[comaamen86]

Weird that . . .although the website customer service sucks, I've always found the store people friendly and helpful by and large.

I had a similar story but in reverse to yours. Saw the Medal of Honor Warfighter steelbook in a store prior to release and enquired about it. "You can have one now if you pre-order" I was told. Pre-ordered knowing full well that Forza Horizon was out the same day. Changed my pre-order to that and nobody asked for the steelbook back.

Now all I have to do is wait for the inevitable tumble in price on the MOH Warfighter. Nice !!! :rotf:

Very nice! :D Is that going to be printed on a steelbook? ;)

[SwiftDeath]

Very nice! :D Is that going to be printed on a steelbook? ;)

If so, imagine it without all the logos :drool:

[Matrix6]

Hasn't grown on me yet. The female character is more appealing to me though :barsong:

[vhal_x]

Yeah, I really hope we get a steelbook of that artwork :drool: xx

[Lemur]

Who's that guy on the cover? If there's a steelbook it'll be better if they put a big daddy as the main art. I haven't played any bioshock games but at least I know what a big daddy is.

[toxicatom5]

Got to admit, she looks remarkably like the character (Elizabeth). Love to see stories like this that the developers are actually tuned into what is going on among fans of their games; and even more then they are rewarded for their loyalty/efforts.

Does anyone know where to pre-Order this item at the normal retail price ??
I've been searching ebay and amazon.com just to find people selling their pre-orders with Almost twice the Original Price -__-

And does anyone know, if pre-ordering it from Amazon.fr, does the Items inside is all in French ??

thanks :)

This is very - very sad for me :(
been waiting on Infinite for a long time since I last saw the Trailer back in E3 2011

And when they announce the Ultimate Songbird, I pre-ordered too late @__@
Wonder will the price for the Songbird will be back after 3-4 months after release ??

--

regarding the amazon.fr item, can anyone confirm it :) ??
will the manual or the physical item on the Songbird will be in French or English ?
Because I can't find an official store that sells the Songbird with the regular retail price that can ship it to my country .__.

[Letrico]

There are tons of stock at EBgames AU as well but it does not ship to overseas.

Even though Indonesia is just besides Australia .__.

The Only Option that I can buy the Ultimate Songbird Edition (for PS3) are only through European Amazon Store (French, Germany, etc)
Which even I don't know will the content is in english or can it Ship to my Country (Amazon can probably ship to my country) .__.

[Letrico]

Maybe try requesting someone to forward it to you? Might cost a little more for shipping than big company like amazon but you can be sure it's in english.

Actually I am Considering using a Forwarder :|
looking trough the Marketplace and in the Group Buys & Exports subforum, seems there are members that can help with Forwarding the Item from UK and AU

I probably trying to ask around if anyone can ship the item from UK to ID :beg:
and Hopefull doesn't cost more than the item being sold on ebay :|

[Letrico]

Considering the price of shipping will be the same and you can buy it at cost price. It will be better than getting it on ebay.
