Doesn't seem so bad in that unboxing.

I just don't know if I should snag it for 20% off prior to launch via Amazon Prime or hope that a sale on it shows up soon for more than $40 off. Decisions, decisions.

I am not convinced still seems as bad as in the pictures.

If you are banking on the Amazon discount, then hold off until ordering until we gets some more unboxings and reviews. Also, the discount works up to two weeks after the release; I don't see this being sold out so you would be fine.

I wish there was a steelbook only edition though.

Oh, I didn't realize it lasted that long! I shall be waiting for good unboxings and comments from fellow members.

Bear in mind that video is by GameStop who are trying to sell it so whilst I don't want to be overly cynical, I wouldn't doubt for a second that they'll only show you the absolute best views of it to shift more units.

You can still see the derpy (easiest way to describe it) faces closer to the end and it still doesn't look great in my opinion from the other angles.

I've been thinking about it a lot lately and I think I'm going to cancel mine. The statue is an absolute joke and I can see it hitting sub £100 in Game before too long. (Just like bloody Halo 5 getting down to £80...)

I cancelled mine... I am 100% convinced there will be a huge price drop on this one....

Fingers crossed

I sure hope so!

Another unboxing.

I'll be waiting for a price drop at this point. I did order the The Art of Mirror's Edge: Catalyst Limited Edition Hardcover set. Supposedly, it is limited to 200 pieces. Thinking about ordering that controller and maybe that set of three mini figures (both are limited in quantity produced).

I love the way they blatantly tried to mask how awful the statue is with all the flashy effects and jumping between shots!

Cancelled mine the other week and I'm so pleased I did.

I hope the game does well but the CE absolutely crashes and burns. I'd only consider it at about £80 due to that statue; it's is an absolute embarrassment, whomever had any part in making that needs a good firing so that they don't ruin the CE of any other games in the future.
