Well, I just unboxed my Halo5 LCE. I really like the statues/book-ends. They're not the best quality, but it is by far one of the largest models of Master Chief that I own, and I like it.
As far as the CE over all though, I'm pretty disappointed. The box is huge and I intended to have a few things to look through/open/enjoy but there was really just a jumbo steelbook
(oh how I hate these things) and the statues. Nothing else really. The little metal piece of junk is in the "steelbook" along with a bunch of pamphlets and such. This thing REALLY needed to have an artbook with it! I think I'm spoiled after spending only $120 on the Witcher3 CE... even the $180 I spent on this thing still seems $50 too much.
I'm sure other reviews will likely end up saying the same thing and so we'll probably see these things cancelled and end up for pennies on the dollar on amazon near Christmas time (as they'll be looking to clear up needed warehouse space for sure).
Edit: Oh yeah, and to top it off, there's not even a disc tray in the LCE "steelbook". So when I exchange it for the game I still can't put my disc in unless I order the CE separately?
I do like the packaging though. It's pretty sweet. Just wish there was more underneath the hood. I'll give it a 5.5/10 (for comparisons sake, I'd give Reach Legendary CE a 8.9/10)*
Summary:
*lost points because no Steelbook
