Agreed, whats with the down attitudes?

I thought it looked fine. Unless you are gonna be looking at the box 24/7 instead of playing i can see your point. But since I know that's not the case just hush about it. your getting all this Xtra content and you are still complaining....sheesh *throws hands up in the air*

19% here and 30 Dollar more. The normal edition is 40 Euro, the CE 65. 25 Euro difference, ridiculous.

Well after doing a more thorough comparison, the price different between regular copy and collectors edition is $27 after tax. If you remove the tax we pay, the price is $20 more than regular edition.
Okey, time to quit complaining :P
Only wanted to let EA/Bioware know I wasnt totaly happy with that price for the CE considering what we get.

Don't we get a tin CE actually? At any rate, I'll be quite happy with my CE when it arrives (so long as Gamestop actually sends it too me and I don't somehow end up with a standard edition :P ). If you have an issue with the packaging...don't buy it?

Yeah, I know. I guess I'm just pissed our CE got delayed a week here in Europe. Took out my anger on the box.
Sorry CE box. :wub:

Not really.
Bonus DVD? Filled with trailers!
Cerberus Networkcard? Everyone get it!
Artbook? A little bit nice yes
Comic? 3-4 Dollar in every comic shop, not really worth it
Steelbook? An inflationary package, not as same as special like the Anno 1404 box in example BUT it`s still very nice.

So it not really beat`s the **** out of the standard edition. It`s average, absolutly average.

Collectors Edition is no longer something special for loyal fans, its crap made look special and increase royalty. The size of the Comic and art book is a joke costing 20 euro extra.


20 euro extra?  Funny, in the US it's only 10 USD extra.  That is really cheap as far as collector/special/limited editions go.

Not sure what you people were expecting for an extra 10 bucks.

Personally I prefer getting packages like the God of War III Special that has all that wonderful stuff for around 120 USD.

BTW can't wait for the Bioshock 2 Special (100 USD), that brings some cool stuff.

Well no s***.  You get what you pay for.

10 USD extra was never going to bring much at all, and a little booklet and DVD, even a comic is quite a bit as far as that amount of money goes.

You're getting an extra disc with commentary and development diaries, a comic book, an art book, and a bonus downloadable item. You would easily pay around $20 or more for all of that stuff separately. If you don't like the CE, then don't buy it. Speak with your money, since typing about it on the forums is meaningless at this point. The things are already being boxed and shipped.

Well what did you expect? A free replica suit of N7 armor you can wear all ofr the low price of $10 extra?

You can pretty much say that about all CE's...

OP:check out the link greenhelm posted (see below). after i read your post, i checked it out b/c i ordered the CE too and remembered something about a "tin case". it does come with one. 
"Collector's Tin: Featuring custom art on the front and back."

@Crawling_Chaos and SkywardDescent
25 Euro, try to read. Not everyone here is an american

@Schneidend
You forget that we get nearly everything from the DVD already on Youtube, Gametrailers and so on. So it`s no new content especially for this like in example the DVDs for Lord of the Rings.
No one said the CE is ****, but it`s average. Is it to hard in modern times to difference a little bit and stop bring this annoying "don`t buy it if you don`t like it"? It`s absolutly normal to criticize something and I think I and others make it in a somehow objective way.

Are you sure it's not just an European equivalent to $10?



10 bucks is something like 8-8.5 euro. The difference here is cca 20 euro (more specificly, I bought it from Xzone.cz and the difference was 400 Kč which is 18 euro).

Huh. I thought it was a full artbook. Does the Digital deluxe edition from gamestop come with the armor and blackstorm?

Until no other artbook is released it is the full artbook. But it would be definitly very sad if I couldn`t put a second one right by the first.

Ever since the Jade Empire preorder bonus there has been rage about something during a Bioware release so it seems to me.

Looking at the pics in this locked thread social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/103/index/671315/1
The CE does not come in a nice tin to match the ME1 CE,.. instead it looks like it is in the cheap piece of crap case with a paper slip cover.  Don't get me wrong, I am looking forward to getting the game and am happy that I managed to get a pre-order for a CE for the 360, but this will look terrible next to the NICE ME1 TIN.

... also, does anybody know if the retail copy of the comic is larger or are they all small like the one in the CE?


Your life can not possibly be ruined by a game cover.
