Man you must hate 99% of CEs then... that seems to be the standard for CEs. Also the small art book makes perfect business sense... they want to still be able to justify the bigger and separately sold art books.

I too like a good box, but it is a passing and frivolous like as boxes are never being displayed (at least for me). For me it is like seeing the logo on the inner foam... I like the touch of detail but really it means nothing in the way of what it means for the future of the box/foam.

sounds kinky flatty.

I like different items in a CE eg pocket watches, hip-flasks... but in relation to the game, not the standard artbook and steelbook. This is probably why i prefer the actual promo items you can buy instead of CE's now....

And it is unfortunatly the case. I don't buy collectors edition anymore unless the memorabilia inside are crazy high quality and justify the price. but if it comes with a small artbook, I usualy pass.

For me it's about the statue or figure, I like having that memory on the shelf. I do wish the US would get more of the unique CEs that I see across the pond. It's not worth a considerable amount but one my favorites has to be the Japanese Dark Souls CE with the wooden box full of replica weapons. I recently purchased it from Misterunboxers and have received many compliments already. It's very well made and looks great. I really like the statues and figures but the quality and attention to detail in that CE is top notch.
