Thanks to chrominance for the update in the previous thread.

Dang

 

[Jackpot]

And still no actual screenshots to confirm the games are anything more than what a GOG update entails. Gearbox give me bad vibes.

 

[Ubersnug]

US only? Well that's bullshit...

 

[epmode]

That's a pretty nice cat helmet.

 

[Jomjom]

No physical disc version? Laaaaaaaaaammmmmmmme.

Yeah, I was hoping for a disc with the CE too. That and having to having to get a workaround to even get it in the first place means I'll have to pass.

 

[Technosteve]

i need a real picture to make up my mind.

I really hope that's not final...

 

[mdzapeer]

...and, done!

Also hi everyone, my first post here.

 

[kick51]

some kind of rotting croissant on a stick?

 

[Alric]

done, thanks for the heads up. I'd of been bummed out if I missed out on it.

 

[wanders]

Holy mothership of god

 

[twobear]

Would be much better without the LEDs.

 

[Jito]

So far Gearbox are proving they bought this license to fleece fans, not even seen the game yet.

 

[Rosur]

Hope this is not just us only

You seem like a very skeptical person who has chosen not to seek out information about the product. They've got, like, a whole series of blog posts detailing the kind of stuff they've done, been generous with information dumps, etc.

 

[Jito]

Did a quick google search and couldn't find one screenshot or game clip, yet here's the collectors edition ready to buy.

And yeh, I'm very sceptical because A:CM lol.

Yup, I'm still hoping the USB cable is detachable.

Even if the remastered versions turn out to be bad at least they're including the original versions; I'll be happy enough to own the originals on Steam. And we're getting a lore & art book plus a neat statue with this CE. Another thing I'm looking forward to is steam trading cards and steam profile wallpapers.

So it looks like there is a chance we'll see international orders open up sometime down the road.

All they've proved so far is that they bought this license to sell plastic toys.

 

[Tidus_Great]

how can a "collectors" edition come with digital lame ass content.?
screw digital

 

[AzureSkies]

Here's hoping that they don't fuck with the amazing credits theme.

 

[Corto]

Gearbox is allergic to Euros? Ok. I'll keep them then.

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Goddamn, some LE that is, I would have got it if it came out in Europe.

 

[Yasae]

 

[mantidor]

$100!? lol no.

No physical game. No screenshots or gameplay footage. Not anything. Basically, $100 for a Mothership replica that we don't know how it will be, a key chain and a booklet.

Nope.

 

[nded]

I just want a new copy of the Historical and Technical Briefing because some asshole stole mine.

 

[WhiskeyKnight]

...and, done!

[Cameron122]

[catmario]

Well then, I'll buy this through shipping agency instead.

 

[YoYo Switch]

this reminds me of that one $100+ dollar CE that didn't come with the game, but not as bad.

I have a huge collection of digital games in mint condition... most are barely used, and some are 1st print, vga graded and sealed.
