Resident Evil 6 Collectors Edition announced

[JRoX85]

What a balls CE, at least you guys in Euro get a steelbook. Across the pond I just watched the anthology edition unboxing (thats all we could get), and man what a load of crap. I am canceling my preorder and putting it towards my AC3 CE. Capcom your CE's stink..

Hoping my No Hope Left edition shows up from Gamestop today. Not holding my breath though :/ xx

I managed to pick up a free 'no hope left' edition hoodie at Eurogamer last weekend. Gotta say it's definately worth getting. Really good quality and worth a good ?30 - ?40. I decided to just order the steelbook after snapping that up. Money well spent Vhal, enjoy!

Eff me, vhal . . .that's 1100 quid's worth of pre-orders just for November alone.

Are you a secret heiress . . .

(That's about my yearly budget . . .jeezus, I'm a cheapskate )

Just received my NHL edition. Very nice contents. Piece of shit outer box. Outer box is brown cardboard, typical brown box. With a slipcover over it, that looks like it was printed and stuck together in two seconds (mine is badly aligned) going to message gamestop and request a replacement slipcover. I'm sure they could easily print another out, and glue it properly this time xx

The review is mix between good and bad. So I am glad I didn't bother with the preorder. I wouldn't mind getting the European version, but I will wait until the price drop.

Gamestop have only just dispatched the NHL ED which I'm forwarding to somebody. >.< Can we have some pics of your's please Vhal?

[vhal_x]

Yup, uploading now xx

Outer box image:




box inside the slipcover is a plain brown shipping type box and slipcover is thin shiny paper, and badly glued together.

Close up of just how badly glued together:




I unstuck the slipcover after that picture was taken, and restuck the slipcover properly... but now the damn thing doesn't fit over the brown box So they obviously made them quickly and haphazardly, not realising they wouldn't fit, and that, plus rushing, caused them to be glued badly.

Grr xx

Shoddy to say the least... What's the quality of the contents like?
