See the Nominations for the Spike TV video game awards made me start thinking... we should hold our own awards for the best Collector's Editions.

Ideas for categories:
-Collector's Edition of the Year
-Best Packaging for a CE
-Best Bonus Item included with a CE
-Best Console CE
-Best Portable CE
-Best CE for a new franchise
-Most Surprising CE Release
-Most Disappointing CE Release

---------
I'm thinking 2010 should be games released in Dec 2009 through Nov 2010, then we can announce the winners in early December

Comment if you have ideas for categories, if you have ideas for nominees etc.

I love this idea.

CE most likely to increase in value/rarity

I'll try to think of more later.

Best value for money
Worst value for money

I'd rather not... I think it will have more meaning if we've got US CEs competing against UK CEs, etc.

That reminds me; maybe we can create a thread projecting the rarity/future value of upcoming collectors editions. That would be of great help to everyone, in my opinion. I can only purchase so many CE's a year, and I would hate to miss out on another gem like the Demon's Souls CE. I think it would be in everyone's interest to know which CE's need to be purchased immediately.

Nice idea. Will there be a poll where we'd vote or are we just gonna bicker amongst ourselves until everyone gives up and grudgingly accepts [insert game name] as the winner?
