[Solemn_In_Berlin]

This is the most 'complete' collector's edition I've ever come across with. It has everything that makes a CE more than worthwhile, perhaps even sentimental to a collector with no sense of tradition or culture.

The obligatory components that make up a traditional CE are:

- Game
- Making-of/documentary
- Artbook
- Soundtrack

Generally, a CE has three out of those four. Sometimes, a CE has all four but the soundtrack and the documentary are joined in one disc, so it's still practically three out of four. The Sonic Generations Collector's Edition has all four components; and the game, the soundtrack and the documentary all have their own discs. Add the fact that the soundtrack and the documentary are in a DigiPak and not just in some sleeve and everything's just that more special.

And then you have the definitive item, something from the game or in this case, the franchise. And because Generations spans two gens, it is only fitting that you have two definitive items. First, you have a statuette of Classic Sonic and Modern Sonic and second, you have a gold ring, which doesn't save your life if you stab yourself with a stake, unfortunately.

Ladies and gentlemen, you now have a must-have for collectors and fans alike. A love letter to the fans and a satisfactory CE for the collectors.

...

Long story short, this is the perfect collector's edition.
