October 28th, 2008 Michael Pica

Video Game Price Chart’s has an interesting article discussing the average price drop of Collector’s Edition games vs Regular Edition games. The found that while the upfront price of a Collector’s Edition is typically $10 more these editions typically hold their value much better and some even go up in value in the long run.

It’s a good read for anyone looking to help justify the extra cost of the CE games in their collection.

Fable II was released today with many fans picking their games up last night.  Now you can see what the final version of the Limited Collector’s Edition actually looks like.

Kotaku is reporting that someone on the order of 2000 stores with in the US will be hosting “Midnight Mehem” events on the Gears of War 2 launch, November 7th. Those in attendance of such events will receive a code that will give them “an exclusive in-game gold-plated Hammerburst Assault Rifle for use in multiplayer gameplay.”

This should make collectors happy as it will go nicely with the code for a gold-plated Lancer Assault Rifle for use in multiplayer gameplay that will be included with the Limited Edition of the game.
