So wait? The collectors edition doesn't come with a steel case for the game?

The BioShock Collector's Edition is available for PC and Xbox 360 and contains the game in a limited edition embossed steel case, a Making Of DVD, Soundtrack CD, hand finished resin figurine (14cm height).

The fuck?

EDIT:

Wow, Collectors Edition got hosed!

SEE YOU FUCKERS ON LIVE!

You know you just cursed yourself with the dreaded "3 RED RINGS OF DEALTH" because as you know, MS is still fitting even the Elite 360's with those 90nm chips, not the new 65nm's yet.

Hey there, troll!

 

[Grecco]

Well you got the Big Daddy Doll

 

[Lostconfused]

Does the standard copy come in a plastic case or a tin?

 

[John Harker]

you could do what i do...

pick up your work phone.. call 2K... ask them to mail you a copy...
and then bam, there ya go

 

[Bboy AJ]

Big Daddy doll is prone to breaking.

 

[xsarien]

The only reason I ordered the CE is because I wanted the completely awesome oldies - and oldies-ish - soundtrack.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Plastic.

The only reason I ordered the CE is because I wanted the completely awesome oldies - and oldies-ish - soundtrack.

Word is that the soundtrack is only 3 tracks. Wow, I'm really hoping this is untrue.

What the fuck? :\ I thought the LE case would look good on a steelbook, but man, in the case? :/ Kinda upset.

Ok thanks for the response, damn that sleeve has been throwing me off for the past two days. Sigh, i still want a tin, oh well.

Please do not come back into this thread by backpedaling, and claiming that you were using /SARCASM.

EDIT: Good; looks like you won't be. Thanks Mods!

[Lostconfused]

FUCK IT IM NOT BUYING THIS GAME ANYMORE LETS BOYCOTT THIS SHIT

Hey man, i am considering getting the collectors edition of halo 3 along with the legendary just for the tin.

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

FUCK IT IM NOT BUYING THIS GAME ANYMORE LETS BOYCOTT THIS SHIT

uh, I'm actually gonna change my preorder from LE to regular now honestly because of the fact the case isn't tin (Which I thought it would be). and just gonna put that extra 10 dollars on a halo 3 preorder I guess.

 

[gray_fox224]

FUCK IT IM NOT BUYING THIS GAME ANYMORE LETS BOYCOTT THIS SHIT

after all we went through with the TRU thing? :lol

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

anyone know if the soundtrack included is gonna be indeed the full soundtrack or is it gonna be like a cd with just some songs from the game.

 

[StriKeVillain]

The same guy who posted those pics said that the "soundtrack" is 3 songs.

 

[FrankT]

FUCK IT IM NOT BUYING THIS GAME ANYMORE LETS BOYCOTT THIS SHIT

No can do, I will have the complete package, LE or bust. The soundtrack alone is going to be amazing. AND MAH BIG DADDY!

 

[gray_fox224]

I was just kidding, buy whatever you want ofcourse .

are you serious?

 

[StriKeVillain]

Yeah, an EB employee who got to "test drive" the CE confirmed it. They are pretty dissapointed over there. I would go and get a link but some douche is running around and posting spoilers in thread titles. Apparently the mods don't know what the ban button does. :lol

You have got to be kidding me, ok thats it now i am certainly skipping out on this lackluster edition.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

are you serious?

It's a mini CD, like the one that came with the Japanese import of Belly's 1995 album King, remember?

 

[Lambtron]

FUCK IT IM NOT BUYING THIS GAME ANYMORE LETS BOYCOTT THIS SHIT

I'm going to gladly give them my $70 and tax. However, it's just a bit of a bummer.

I really just want to see that behind the scenes DVD. Irrational is like my new Soul Coughing.

That post had zero sarcasm. My sarcasm metre is working as well as it always does.

Why doesn't this surprise me?

 

[Zozz]

IF THIS SHIT IS TRUE I'M HEADING BACK TO GAMESTOP AND SWITCHING TO THE REGULAR EDITION!!

 

[UncleGuito]

So wait? The collectors edition doesn't come with a steel case for the game?



The fuck?

EDIT:

Wow, Collectors Edition got hosed!

2KGames forum says that Gamespot has a DISPLAY UNIT that's nearly identical to the real collector's edition. That's probably what this is a picture of.

 

[Lostconfused]

Soul Coughing has only one good song and thats because in was in the X files movie, may the that LE that is filled to the brim with disappointment burn for raising my hopes so high only to crush them with complete lack of value.

Because honestly you thought "oh my we are getting so much for $10" well apparently the saying still stands if its too good to be true then its probably some bastard trying to rip you off.

 

[Eric WK]

Same here, actually. I upgraded to the CE a couple hours ago, but I'm going to switch back to regular.

Unintelligability and bald, Soul Coughing-related falsehoods. Tut tut.

And the main differences between the two being?

 

[UncleGuito]

Look at the soundtrack label. There are more than 3 songs listed on it.

There are supposedly 3 MOBY REMIXES in ADDITION to the game's soundtrack.

 

[Stapler Gonzales]

I called my TRU, asking for Bioshock. They said they had them in stock, but weren't allowed to sell them. I told them several stores in their chains had begun to sell them, and he gave a rather enthusiastic and taken aback "oh really?". I might stop buy tomorrow to see if they actually listened.

 

[Gribbix]

Ha. I'm probably the only person who is happy that the CE is a regular case as opposed to a tin case but that's because I'm screwed up in the head and prefer to have everything match when it sits on my shelf.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Thank you kind sir!

I must rile against something and soul coughing was simply caught in the cross fire.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Actually it doesn't even look like there are three tracks on there. I assume the silver writing is the tracklisting. And it looks like it's called "The Bioshock EP".

It's a rough night for the ShockLess. I understand.

;D

heh, I can see that. However I like my "Special games" to be in the tin case. Just feels so right when I grab them from the shelf to put in the box.

ah well...regular edition it is for me. it even has a slip cover unlike the LE. wtf

Actually it doesn't even look like there are three tracks on there. I assume the silver writing is the tracklisting. And it looks like it's called "The Bioshock EP".

yea, it's probably the 3 songs, then 3 remixes.

<sigh>

 

[dr3upmushroom]

Anyone have any luck finding one in Cali?
