Should have charged $450 to make up for the lost PS4 TitanFall sales.

 

[ultron87]

I'd expect a mini motorized Titan for that price.

 

[Blablurn]

You forgot the price. 250 bones yo.

 

[CrazyDude]

Why are people complaining about the price? If this is a well-made statue it's well worth it. Quality statues sell for like $250-$350

No video game statue is worth that much no matter the quality.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Holy shit they just swapped the $ sign for a £ sign.

UK press release says it's £249.99 O_O

 

[Camwi]

$250?! Holy shit. I was excited until I saw the price.

Hopefully they overprint and you see these being clearanced out at GameStop or Best Buy or something.

 

[Tsundere]

Xbox One + TITANFALL Collector's Edition = $750

 

[DrFunk]

It also requires a $100 deposit: http://t.co/olWGdJ2TgB

next gen cash money baby

 

[Lambtron]

$250, lmao.

This comes out on my birthday. I guess I'd accept the gift of an Xbone and this game.

 

[Kacho]

Very cool but too expensive for my tastes.

 

[Hubble]

$250. Yeah right, they must be high.

 

[Ephemeris]

Shame on you all gaf no "Have you seen Titanfall's CE" post anywhere

I rather get banned for something else, that's why.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Probably isn't even made from decent material. Some cheapy thing yeah? No resin or polystone?

 

[dancrane212]

I'm just happy the artbook is going to be sold separately, it's the only thing that I'd really want from that edition.

 

[Mr.Marston]

PS4 owners tears

Looooool

 

[Omega]

No video game statue is worth that much no matter the quality.

because it's a video game statue?

 

[VanWinkle]

Okay, so $60 for the game, $50 AT MOST for the art book (The Art of The Last of Us is $30, and has 184 pages, so it's comparable length), we'll say $20 for the poster even though that seems kind of crazy. Add those together, for $130, which means $120 for the statue. That just seems insane to me. I'm sure it will be good quality, but you know it won't be like those amazing really high price ones.

 

[Marvel]

At that price?

 

[Shadow780]

No video game statue is worth that much no matter the quality.

This thing is awesome and I bought two of them.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Holy shit they just swapped the $ sign for a £ sign.

It's being sold separately?

 

[GuitarAtomik]

I don't buy collector's editions or statues, but that statue is particularly boss.

 

[Donny]

And I thought Brazilian PS4 price was ridiculous....

 

[Sword Of Doom]

The statue is 18" though. Pretty big. But yeah should at least come with a season pass, no?

 

[Nibel]

For $250 bucks they could have at least included these tight badges

 

[IronRinn]

PC version up on GameStop already.

 

[border]

I don't know why, but I honestly can't stand it when the owners of a brand new completely untested IP think they have the clout and the right to introduce some mega-overpriced collector's edition or multi-media campaign.

It always makes me want to see them crash and burn hard.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

No video game statue is worth that much no matter the quality.

Maybe for you.

But there are some quality statues out there.

 

[dancrane212]

It's being sold separately?

Yeah just saw it on Amazon.

[giantsx6]

You don't have to buy the collectors edition, who cares if it costs even a 1000 bucks.

 

[Emerson]

the Titanfall: Collector's Edition (SRP $249.99)

u wot m8

 

[Sword Of Doom]

EA makin that chedda

 

[CrunchinJelly]

"The retail price in the currencies we will support are €299.99 EUR, £249.99 GBP, and $399.99 AUD."

 

[VanWinkle]

You don't have to buy the collectors edition, who cares if it costs even a 1000 bucks.

Probably the people who want to buy it.

 

[OSHAN]

It seems like a hard sell for a collector's edition, when you're working with a game that has no history. Why would I want a collector's edition for a series I have no experience with? Just seems odd to me.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Does it come with a Steel Battalion controller?

$250 is laughable.

 

[jbug617]

Prototype of the statue

 

[FTF]

lol exactly. That price is ridiculous.

 

[dugdug]

Hardly a surprise it's that much money. It's an EA game.

 

[Derpcrawler]

Holy shit they just swapped the $ sign for a £ sign.

UK press release says it's £249.99 O_O

100 more and you can buy a PS4! That's just crazy if you think about it, when a game with pretty average collector's edition cost almost as much as brand new next-gen console.

 

[Nibel]

That thing is huge

 

[HariKari]

Prototype of the statue

Does it come painted? Or are they pulling a Forgeworld/Games Workshop here. Take out the game and art book ~$80, and the statue isn't a bad value. Nice piece for a game room. 18" tall is pretty damn big.

 

[Visualante2]

Worse value than the Spore Collector's edition. A new record for EA?

I'd expect a mini motorized Titan for that price.

If I can't put a small animal inside it, I just don't give a damn.

 

[Kuro]

Anyone notice how tiny the PC logo is on there in comparison to the 360 and ONE logo?

 

[Can Crusher]

Gotta ask Titanfall about dat price.

 

[NotSelf]

$250 for something that will end up collecting dust.

 

[Shadownet]

I don't know why, but I honestly can't stand it when the owners of a brand new completely untested IP think they have the clout and the right to introduce some mega-overpriced collector's edition or multi-media campaign.

Exactly, look at Infamous Second Son.


It's going the subtle route, the most expensive collector edition for Second Son is only $80.


They must be crazy charging $250 for a brand new IP

 

[E92 M3]

no steelcase book?!?!

Yes, they should have definitely included that. I am curious to know what the markup is on this edition.

 

[Tapejara]

Was totally in until I read the price. $250? Jesus, that's half the price of the Xbox One alone :/.

 

[Devilgunman]

You forgot the price. 250 bones yo.

lol

Just put it into perspective, here what $250 can get you

- Titanfall LE
- 5 years subscription of Live/PS+
- 3DS + 2 games
- Vita + 1 games
- 20 Chinese buffet

EA makin that chedda

Yeah, it was also really off-putting when they launched Dead Space alongside toys, comic books and a friggin' movie. I've still never played Dead Space as a result.
