Default Re: The Worst Collectors Editions you have ever seen

^^^Yeah, At my local Best Buy I've seen the Batman CE go from 79.99 to 69.99 to 59.99 to 49.99 within a matter of weeks. I want to pick it up but every time I see it it's $10 cheaper so I keep on waiting.

You would think developer will know that cheap cardboard collector edition just doesn't last as long as the normal plastic edition. Here are list of CE games only came with cardboard as your disc holder. Here are few of the CE that fits that description
  • DC universe vs Mortal Kombat
  • Oblivion
  • Two World
  • Prince of Persia: Forgotten sand

Every CE varies from region to region. One thing I always hate is one region pay more or equal and don't get nearly as good stuff. For instance, N. America Resident Evil 5 CE came with badge, bag, small figurine while Japanese version, which cost the same, came with chainsaw 2GB USB thumb drive and other cool stuff. Other perfect example is Assassin Creed CE Europe gets big figurine while N. American got small little figurine.

Also God of War ultimate edition in euro got the first 2 remastered edition inside aswell. unlike the US version.

However I think Japen gets all the super edition, especially the hardware ones.

not only that they over-produced them, there are stores near me with new Batman CEs in the bargain bin... it's sad
When they over produce the so call limited edition, this really annoys me. Good exmaples:-

Halo 3 Legendary edition
Bioshock 2 Special Edition
Blazblue limited edition
Final Fantasy Xiii Collector edition

It depends on region. Blazblue LE in N. America had a limited run. It was sold out on the first release. As for Bioshock 2 & Halo 3, we get the same thing. Over produce and sitting on shelf longer than usual.
