Yeah typical shit from a big dev....Sell the figure as a CE 'exclusive' for months in advance to get us all to pre order, then release it as a stand alone a couple of days before release.

Yeah, it's disgraceful. Ubishop pulled this shit with the AC Encyclopaedia in the Animus Ed for Revelations and then put the book up for standalone sale on the ubishop when the game was due to come out.

Why do we keep buying their shit?

Can't say I'm surprised. It's a Play Arts Kai figure after all.

Never like Play Arts Kai... they look funny to accommodate the joints (although if that's what you like they do the best of making the joints the least noticeable from what I can see).

I like good quality statues MUCH better then moveable figure... to each his own.


As far as why they do things like releasing another stature... because they know people will buy it! At the end of the day the dev can say all they want about how much love and passion went into the design and game but it is just about profit in the end (which is good, if they weren't we wouldn't get many games). Plus it is probably more to due with publishers then devs.

Loving this so far! The intro was fantastic! Feels very Uncharted-like. Great graphics, amazing sound, controls are great and feels solid all round Can't wait to play more.

i couldnt care less if they release the model separatly - i buy the collectors editions because i like the content. It doesnt affect my enjoyment of the item if only 1000 people have them or 100000000 do.

only part i find annoying is when they mislead how rare the CE is so i buy it at full price and then find out that its 75% off in the sales 3 months later :<

This one will be difficult to acquire

Well, at least the dev team one.







Posting says: Official illustrated poster commissioned by Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix to promote the upcoming game for global print, covers, and a special gold-foil variant just for the developers. There?ll be more info soon on when and where you can get your hands on the 18?x24? poster and I?ll have some fun behind the scenes pics on its creation in the near future.

So it might be one of those Treehouse will sell?
