5000 pieces doesn't seem very exclusive, really. maybe 1k or less.

It is low. Sonc Gen was 6000 per platform(this is shared) and that was low and sold out. Dead Space Ultra Ed. was 1000 and is megarare. Even PK such as Infamous have 2800 copies etc, resistance 3 PK over 7000.

i remember ordering it before release because i was super stoked about the game. i never opened it because it was offered through like the ea store or something so i thought it might be hard to get a hold of. just checked on amazon and wow, are people really getting that much out of this?

It's worth a heck of a lot.

We're working on something like this. You can see the first prototype marker in Jed's hands during one of the interviews in the video....

Consider that the game will be selling millions of copies, and most collector's editions at retail are editions of hundreds of thousands. We tried to strike a nice balance between having it feel exclusive while not excluding _everyone_.

We usually do it pretty much as they come in. Dealing with the stock isn't my job, though, so I'm not sure if they have other plans this time around. I'll bump this thread when I know more (if there's something to tell).

5000 is quite a good number for a game which will sell for millions of times undoubtly. Hope to see more companies do this giving very exclusive editions to collectors.

Looking forward to hearing more, please keep us in the loop.

Sorry I don't believe for one second you either have one or didn't realise how rare it is/was.
