Despite it’s name the “SteelBook Edition” of Sega’s Viking: Battle for Asgard released for Xbox 360 and PS3 exclusively though GAME stores in the UK is actually nothing more than a metal tin containing the regular edition of the game.
Thanks to shakylechner for the tip.
Amazon.com has listing for an NTSC Collector’s Edition release of Bethesda Softworks’ Fallout 3. The Collector’s Edition will apparently be arriving on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.
No details have been released, no features, pricing, images, or even a release date or ESRB rating. We can likely assume, however, that the Collector’s Edition will release along side the regular edition on October 7th of this year.
We’ll post more details when we get them.
The Gamedatabase has been updated again with detailed descriptions and pictures for the following releases:

Kotaku is reporting that Japanese game magazine Famitsu recently published information on the upcoming Special Edition of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
According to this scan from Japanese magazine Famitsu, the regular version of Metal Gear Solid 4 will retail for ¥8,800 (US $91), the Special Edition will go for ¥9,800 ($101) and the bundle will go for ¥51,800 ($534). And the color of the PS3 console in that special edition MGS4 bundle? That would be “steel.” Fitting.
According to PS3 Fanboy the bonus DVD included with the Special Edition is “MGS Saga”. No word yet on whether or not the Special Edition will release in North America, Europe or Australia.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Limited Edition for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 is released today to stores across North America.
Most listed “Release Dates” are actually “Ship Dates” and listed as such to prevent retailers from releasing the game early stores in your area may not receive their shipment until sometime tomorrow.
Two more game have had detailed pictures and descriptions posted:
Collector’s Edition is but a few weeks old. Starting a database with the level of detail here that I would like to strive for is no easy or quick task. Once I got the base site and database laid out I got a lot of feedback about what people wanted to see, and I had a sizable task list in front of me about what needed to be done. Well here is the first major update.
Here are the features that have been added:
All in all the database now has 105 records, honestly i didn’t even know there were that many CEs this generation but every time I turned around I found another one that I didn’t notice before.
I’ve also completely fleshed out about a dozen pages at this point with detailed pictures and descriptions, and I’ll be adding more to that list every day. I hope every page will be at this level eventually. Currently concept art has been put up for most of the unreleased games. There are also detailed photos and descriptions up for the following titles:
I’d encourage you to check out the database and let me know if you find any bugs or incorrect info, if you have any ideas for new features, or can provide me with information about a game that I’m missing. You can shoot me an email at any time buy simply clicking the “Contact C.E.” link at the top of the page.
