Christian Hancock tipped us off to a very nicely done unboxing video for the upcoming Uncharted 3 Drake’s Deception Collector’s Edition. Not only is this a professionally filmed video put up by SCEA but it stars Nolan North (the voice actor who plays Nathan Drake). Even if you’re not an uncharted fan it’s worth watching just for Mr North’s wise cracks about the CE’s design features…

The two editions are as follows

The Helghast Edition seems like the one to get, though the SteelBook packaging for the Collector’s Edition is sure to please some. No idea what these will actually look like or how much they’ll cost. As always we’ll post more details if we get them.
The Playstation Blog recently released details of a Collector’s Edition version of Little Big Planet 2 to be released alongside the regular edition on November 16th for $79.99.
According to the Playstation Blog the Collector’s Edition of Little Big Planet 2 will include the following:
Rumors have been floating around the internet about an even better CE release of Gran Turismo 5 than the one previously announced by Sony. These originated from an interview on Indian Video Gamer where Atindriya Bose (country manager for Sony Computer Entertainment India) stated:
For GT5, there are two collector’s editions. One is the game plus some added content and collectibles, which (has already been announced), while the other is in a really big package with a lot of paraphernalia that goes beyond the game. It’s all car-related, but I’m unaware of the exact contents. That being so expensive, we may not directly order it from Europe, but we could bring in limited quantities from Sony in the Middle East. We’ll also be working with Mercedes in some way around the GT5 launch, but we’re yet to decide the specifics of that.
To lend credence to this news Amazon’s French site recently put up a listing for an “Ultimate Edition” of the game in addition to the Collector’s Edition that was previously announced. Sadly aside from a name and release date it is devoid of details.
Shortly after the official release date was announced at E3 Gran-Turismo.com posted details of a forth coming Collector’s Edition for Gran Turismo 5.
Scheduled for release on November 2nd (of this year) at a price of $99 the Collector’s Edition will include the following:
Those who pre-order will also get bonus cars including a “Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Nissan GT-R GT500, McLaren F1, and more.”
This looks to be releasing in both North America and Europe, most likely the rest of the world as well. They state that “production will be limited” but there’s nothing that really states HOW limited that is.
