The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Collector's Edition Revealed

Having an Xbox One, I am (obviously) happy they did this. It's unfortunate for those who purchased the Playstation 4 because they're missing out, but lets be honest, Microsoft has way more money to just throw around for promotional things like this.
Video games are a huge part of the entertainment business and I can't think of any other sector that even comes close to generating the type of money that gaming does. My point is that it makes sense from a business perspective for any company to accept a bucket load of cash to add minor physical (or even digital, in some cases - like pre-order DLC) content for a specific version. Just look at the trend of video game making companies over the past few years that have gone under due to a lack of funds generated by their game.
I know it's easy to blame CD Projekt Red and say they "sold out" but have they really? They're not putting a new creature in the game called the "Microsoftus" that can only be slain using the silver "Playstationic Trap" or filling the game world with Coke or Pepsi billboards. They are a company that wants to keep making awesome games for us, and they need money to do it.
