10 million just rolls off the tongue more easily than 6 million, 4 hundred and sixty thousand, 5 hundred and seventy-two.
I have no idea what the actual value of it is.

that is absolutely ridiculous. 10,000,000 for stuff that sounds like you'd get to do for winning a contest.

Nowhere near worth the amount of money they're asking, lol. More like $100k worth of stuff, if that.
Guys, this is not supposed to be actually sold to anyone (though if by some miracle someone bites they won't refuse it). It's just a marketing piece, meant only for that purpose. Getting all them gaming journalism sites sharing about this outrageous and expensive edition of the game is easy and cheap marketing.

Wonder what it means by
? :/
I'm guessing you do a voice over of Crane and you will get a special exclusive edition of the game with your voice on it :lol

say what now?
That is unbelievable over priced
let do so very rough estimates
a speaking role in Dying Light: The Movie - hard to quantify but surely its the same as what an extra would get paid, so a few thousand? lets say $10,000 (although it should be free since they are saving on paying someone)
professional acting lessons from Roger Craig Smith (Ezio in Assassin's Creed) - lets say $1000 per lesson and i'd doubt he'd give more than 10 so $10,000
stuntman parkour training (or a stunt double) - similar to a speaking role and/or training $10,000
an off-road driving course, $500- $1500 depending on duration/nº of lessons
a personal trailer on set - let be real its a rental so assuming its A list celebrity class $500 a day, or lets say tehy buy a ridiculously luxurious one $250,000 - $500,000
an original copy of the film script, the cost of the print off? $10 or lets assume they arbitrary assign it a value based on other sort after scripts (but not knowing if this will be even sort after) - $500
an FX make-up session, - $500-$1000
a screening tour of the film (complete with first-class accommodations), a tour of a film? good lord they do tours of film sets $100 - $500
10 VIP tickets for opening night where will opening night be? where will the seats be located? lets say $1000 a ticket so $10,000
the role of the voice of Kyle Crane in a special edition of Dying Light again it surely can't be any more than a voice actor would get paid so $10,000 (although it should be free since they are saving on paying someone)
and four copies of Dying Light: The Following - Enhanced Edition. LOL $100 each so $400
So on my figures that's between $292,000 and $552,400
what does the other $9.5million for?
christ lets say i was really under it couldn't be more than $1million there? Its like they are getting your to invest in the project and then giving you the probably normal investor benefits

I'd rather fund my own game with that money.

and when you go to pick it up, they'll still pester you for another preorder.

Lol. In reference to that other thread,
For 10million, I would give up gaming all together.

hey man, dying light is a solid game, movie seems like a terrible idea though.
you record all of kyle's dialogue and they compile a copy for you with your voice acting?

Are these editions real? I mean was this real? Did anyone actually buy it and receive everything? lol

It's Techland- the social media team they have is notorious for humor.
Don't read too much into it.

I don't often spend 250,000 euros on a game. But when I do, I ensure it comes with adult diapers.

There's also some stuff in there that you shouldn't be paying for - they should be paying you to do work on their silly movie.

I love Techland's sense of humour. This and the sponsored water are great.

The twist is that you'll end up being charged 70 million when GAME process your order half-a-dozen extra times.

Will the movie actually happen, or be cancelled like 90% of these things.

I doubt they expect many people to contact them with a legit offer to buy. This just reeks of publicity stunt that GAME is using to try and stay at least slightly relevant.
You realise you are all doing what they want, which is virally marketing the game (and GAME) by talking about it?
Has anyone ever bought one of these and forced game to actually cough up? Do these actually exist (do techland have contingency if someone with more money than sense wants it)?

All I can say is wow. When did they confirm a movie and who'd go to watch it?

I gauruntee you can get an Executive Producer credit and starring role in that movie for less than $10 million.
