I know it's called the Signature Edition.

...but the Signature Edition is nothing more than some DLC Bull-Sh*t in a standard case; which is similar to all the crappy Limited Editions that EA puts out which is why I wrote it as "Limited Edition"

we're not getting any kind of real CE so far for the game which I find very VERY disappointing.

Disappointed. That makes two of us. Now, without a doubt. If Gamestop won't carries any other CE's for AC: Revelations. Then I have a couple of choices to make.

1.) wait it out until the last month and see if Gamestop have a change of heart. Plan un-changed. (Limited Edition/Signature edition + encyclopedia book.)

2.)Someone offered to pre-order for those wants the CE's. I'm seriously looking into that.

here's just a question: why don't Ubisoft offering the Animus Edition here in the States for those who wanted it for a very brief window of opportunity to pre-order like say...one month only and that's it?.

P.S
the guys at my Gamestop will have a fit when i'm canceling my ACR ordered. So far i haven't disappointed them yet.

A while back there was an announcement, posted on all the various Game News sources, that there is a "Collector's Edition" for North America and an "Animus" edition for the rest of Europe and Australia. Now, has anyone got official word that the "Collector's Edition" they announced for the US has been canceled? I haven't. I see this "Signature Edition" but most likely they will be offering that contained IN the CE for the US.

Unless someone shows me proof in a link that the announced "Collector's Edition for North America" has been canceled, I know it is coming. Right now it is July 9th. November (which hasn't even a set day yet for the game) is still roughly 4 months away guys. 4 months. I am almost 98% positive that as it gets closer to that date, you will see the announced "Collector's Edition" appear for pre-order at US retailers.

Do we know yet whether the Animus Edition is going to be available from any of the major retailers here in the UK? Or just going to be an Ubistore exclusive?

[themidlandmaster]

I'll help people out if they want the aniumus edition from Australia.

No retailers in Uk have the pre-order up yet, judging by past Assassin creed collector's edition, it will be a Play.com exclusive.

Have to wait and see.

[themidlandmaster]

Gamestop have it as an exclusive in Ireland

I think so too, but I sincerely hope not. If that is indeed the case, then I would rather deal directly with the Ubistore, as I have had good service from them so far. Not even going to waste my time with PLAY.com unless I have to.

I'll wait a while and see which retailer gets it. If GAME gets it, I will order from them, but if PLAY get it, then i'm ordering direct

So I guess I was wrong. I member of the ACR staff commented on their facebook page telling me the 3 editions so far announced (Collector's, Animus and Special) were all either AU or both AU/EU exclusives. Nothing except the "Signature" edition for US customers. (Ubisoft, you can stick it...)
