Default Re: extremely rare Dead Island Limited Treasure Edition for PC, PS3 & Xbox 360

I've fallen for this three times, and really should have learnt after the Sniper: Ghost Warrior farce (where everybody received different items)

I'm all for these things being unique and all, but I don't like the feeling that they've been cobbled together in a hurry by the retailer in a vain attempt to cash-in on the CE craze.

I especially don't like the fact that we were mis-sold these on the promise that they were supposed to be extremely rare and limited, and initially supposed to have been numbered with a certificate of authenticity. For all we know there's tens of thousands of these! At least the Sniper: Ghost Warrior set had a certificate which stated that there were only 200...

I think in future I will be especially dubious about any apparent "limited exclusive" which game4game.at list. I would be very surprised if these things are actually officially licenced by the publishers, and if these did actually come from the publishers (doubtful) then that's even more cause for concern!
