Default Re: Last CE/LE/SE you purchased or got

Got my Bioshock 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition today and I am sorely disappointed. This was purely a cash grab. You would think for $200 it would at least have a steelbook.

- No steel book

- VERY cheaply made statue (My Bid Daddy action figure from NECA is half the size and weighs twice as much)...this thing is CHEAP!

- AND; no optimization. You would think with a second re-release (they just released the Bioshock Collection less than a year ago) this would be optimized for Pro and Scorpio but nope...it's literally the EXACT same game you can grab off the shelf for $20. Doesn't say 10th Anniversary or anything on the game case; it's the EXACT same thing but with a cheap ass hollow PVC statue.

Sorry to hear this but I knew it was the case. For future reference, any statue that has batteries and a spinning part is probably cheap plastic.

I'm glad I didn't have the money ready in time to order it! Sorry to hear it is a cheap piece of junk.

Maybe when it goes on a sale, I'll see if I can pick it up cheap.

Even the game box is cheaply made (with taxes it goes to 300$ Cad here), they don't make CE like the old days

I honestly didn't even know it did that (my fault). I assumed it would be better...still doesn't excuse the rest though. I mean, that's just inexcusable. They seriously just stuck some leftover games from last year in a box with a $30 toy and marketed it as a 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition.

Yeah it is really disappointing when they do this. They have yet to realize the people who buy these want quality.

Probably the best idea.
