[XBOX] Halo 2 Limited Collector's Edition has Arrived!!

Welcome back gamers and collectors!

To yet another addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have Halo 2 Limited Collector's Edition. I managed to grab this along with the High Performance Pack I got last weekend. If you've missed that you can check it out on the XBOX Wiki here. This is by far one of the nicest steelbooks I've seen in a while, I'm not that much of a fan of Halo just let me get that out there.

It's quite difficult to grab this edition with the slipcover and without any rust spots. If you saw my unboxing of the High Performance Pack, I mentioned the system looks hardly used. The games were the same, and I'm happy I grabbed the bundle quickly, has this collector's edition of Halo 2 can reach around $40-$50 EVEN with the slipcover missing. So what's this edition have?

This edition comes with basically just a DVD with some Halo 2 extras.

More games to come during the week, see you there!

King of Fighters: Collector's Edition Arrived today!!

Hi gamers!

Another great auction won, with King of Fighters: Collector's Edition. I'm quite stunned I got this for $7.50! Best buy yet I reckon, I should mention it was a last minute bid too ROFL.

It comes complete with both discs, slip cover and art book I don't know if you can call it an art book but it shows some renders so I'd call it an artbook. ;) The condition is just amazing, I bought this from a collector the case and box doesn't have one scratch on it! This just has to be the best auction won for me so far! ^_^

The last of the amazing Bayonetta news!! Well, maybe..

Hi gamers!

This will be the last instalment of Bayonetta news, but it's great news! I received my Climax Edition Bayonetta along with the gun, soundtrack, and game box. It looks a lot better in person than people's images of the gun.

Unfortunately the gun has got the sight chipped off on the left, apart from that it looks near new.

The boxes are in great condition and so is the art book, My only complaint is that I'm disappointed with the art book there are not many concept images or many pages for that matter.
I couldn't really complain though, I only spent $50+$20 shipping in total $70 which is really good considering that there are only 1,500 made in the world.

I already owned the game for XBOX 360 so it slips into it's box nicely and now the complete set is all together in perfect harmony... nawwww.
Now I can sleep without worrying about this being lost or damaged during transit, I had to go pick it up from the post office though.. Stupid post man!

In conclusion I'm very happy with the set, it looks very cool and got it for an amazing price.

Batman Arkham City collector's edition. US vs EUROPE Taboo.

Hi Gamers,

Today was the day that many Batman fans have been waiting for, everyone who pre-ordered the collectors edition went home without the animation DVD that was included in the US release, but not anywhere else. The empty space under the statue of Batman was for the animation DVD. Many european buyers were puzzled when they opened the draw and found nothing. Along with a download code for the soundtrack, not a physical copy. This is rather beyond me, it's the same price as the US release (ignoring exchange rate), yet the extra CD and DVD were left out they could of at least include a download code for the movie as well, nah that was the right thing to do. Instead they give the European players extra DLC skins, ohhh how collectable are those!

Even though the collector's edition is rather detailed and pretty damn awesome, the cost cut was rude towards the European buyers especially if they wanted the animation DVD and a physical soundtrack. Usually that's the point of a collector's edition, is the physical stuff that it comes with, and not just pieces of paper with codes on them. It's pretty debatable to say the European players were completely disappointed as the statue looks great, and the box for the lot is very well presented. I can surely say, I'd be pretty neutral... if it was a neutral price.

This edition got released here in Australia with the statue, but I'm not aware if it included a physical copy of the soundtrack or not. Which is very confusing as Australia gets European releases usually, some stores are offering the import which happens to be the US version I couldn't say the game is region free. Another thing to add to the crap factor this whole epic edition with the awesome box is that it doesn't even include a case for the game nor a manual. What you do get is a art book and at the end of that art book is a DVD tray, who designed this? Have it separate, so collector's can have the game on the shelf!

I won't go too far into detail about the inconvenience about this edition, as some fans will agree and disagree about the points I make here. Overall the edition is rather cool and interesting, the art book and the statue is what you're really paying for. Consider the game as a throw in extra.
