This took me some time but you all know if it comes to studying everything else is more fun
Being a Xbox 360 only collector it’s hard to fill out all the points but I also know there were some great PS3 and Wii Editions too.
1. Collector's Edition of the year
Sonic Generations CE. It has everything a collector desires:
Something numbered, a figure, an art book, the game itself with a special packaging. Everything comes in this neat fancy box for a reasonable price.
2. Most likely to appreciate in value
A definitely vote for the
Dead Island Treasure Box. The last one on ebay sold for around 600€. Only 266 of these were made so it’s just a matter of time until this will increase in value
3. Best CE for a New Franchise
Dead Island has nothing to do with Dead Rising (It was developed by Techland a polish video game developer) so this should count for the new franchise award:
Dead Island Survival Kit (Gore Edition which was exclusive to Poland)
4. Best Box Art
This is a hard one….
The Batman: Arkham City CE and all four Steelbooks were really nice.So let’s say Batman Arkham City
5. Best Bonus Item
The
rainbow pig from the
Monster Hunter Frontier Online Anniversary 2011 Premium pack – I am still trying to convince my boyfriend that he buys me this edition. It’s so adorable!
6. Best Unboxing Experience
I am also a sealed collector but I watch a lot of unboxing vids. So I think this award goes to the
Catherine Love is Over Deluxe Edition. I really like that they put the content in a pizza box and the boxer shorts were also nice. I really had to laugh when I saw the unboxing for the first time.
7. Most Unique Package Design
In this category I vote for the
AC:R Collector’s Edition. The box is fancy and you really think that the developer thought about what they are doing and not just putting items in a random box. The
opening mechanism is just great
8. Most Unique Bonus Item
Nothing real unique I can remember for one of the Xbox 360 releases…So I leave this blank (well, more or less ^^)
9. Best CE guide
Owning all guides from the AC franchise I will vote for the
AC:R guide. It’s high quality made and looks awesome
10. Best CE system
My only PS3 related vote: When I first saw it I fell in love with it. The lovely:
Ni no Kuni PlayStation 3 Magical Edition
