Resistance 2 Collector's Edition to be simply irresistible
Do you feel confident in saying that you despise the chimera more than anyone else that you know? To be more specific, would you say you hate them twenty dollars more? You can prove your disdain for those yellow-eyed jerks by picking up the collector's edition for Resistance 2, recently unveiled by Amazon.com, which is quickly becoming one of the most comprehensive (if not somewhat unlikely) sources for video game news. Seriously. We're worried.
Included in the bundle (which, for the mathematically challenged, is currently priced at $79.99) is a behind-the-scenes making-of documentary, video commentary from the game's developers, a "Twisted History" chronology video, an exclusive multiplayer character skin, a double-sided art book, and a preview of the heretofore unannounced Gathering Storm novel, which is based on the game. There's also a five and a half inch tall Chimera Hybrid action figure which, due to your unreasonable chimeric hatred, you'll probably just end up microwaving in effigy.

I really wish more collectors editions would come in Steelbook cases. I'd be a lot more inclined to drop the extra $20 for that than I am for a couple videos that I'll watch once each, and an art book that I may or may not look at.

I thought the Halo Collector edition videos were worth it but that was about it. ALl the other content on the 3rd disc was such a disappointment considering how good the first disc was.

All this making-of/behind-the-scenes stuff should be on the blu-ray anyway, like Uncharted had.
Paying extra for this stuff is like paying for DVD extras, its ridiculous.
Shmil @ Aug 31st 2008 1:45PM
they do make you pay for some dvd extras

Damn. I think I might miss on Resistance 2. I'm getting SOCOM, LittleBigPlanet, and FIFA 09. Not to mention I'm too busy as it is already, I don't think I'll have time for Resistance 2... I'll see how it goes, but the Collectors Edition looks really sweet.

"an exclusive multiplayer character skin"
As in "a skin for a model" or as in "a model"?
The first is a nice addition but the second could give them a bit of backlash just like it happened with Gears of War 2 linked achievements...
Aaron @ Aug 31st 2008 1:31PM
Does anyone even watch making-of videos?
Vincent @ Aug 31st 2008 1:33PM
Nope, can't say I do.
WhoMe @ Aug 31st 2008 1:35PM
Yes.
Also, again this probably ain't available where I live...
elmersglue @ Aug 31st 2008 1:50PM
The internet has basically ruined bonus features like this. You'll probably be able to find it all online the day the game comes out.

Rarely. The only stuff like that I have watched recently was for Uncharted. They had some cool videos for the cut scenes that showed a split screen op the cut scene with the actors actually acting it out. They were actually very interesting... of course, they were also free with the standard game.

The 5.5" Figure and the custom skin is all I care about, but that's just me.
j.howlett @ Aug 31st 2008 1:47PM
i want to see the figure first but i might want it. i really only use one skin now in resistance but i switch up when i unlock something new, so i want to see that before i make up my mind.

Lets be honest here. This is a good deal especially compared to most limited editions. However, I only purchase a LE if it is one of my favorites like MGS 4. This is just a waste of $20.00 for me.
Haggard @ Aug 31st 2008 4:18PM
There are only some games I'd buy limited editions for, I agree.
On the other hand, here in the UK we can get Far Cry 2 (when it releases) in a special steel case for no additional cost. So I'm gonna be going for that ^^
masterchef @ Aug 31st 2008 11:33PM
all limited edition are worthless. there really is no resale value for them and whats added to the original is worthless crap. people are stupid. people will buy anything. thats why the 360 was invented.
Moony @ Sep 1st 2008 1:45AM
not sure if u ever heard of them or not, but there are people who like to collect rare stuff... they are called collectors? also there are people called fans, ever heard of them?
LAZoftheTamarinds @ Aug 31st 2008 4:59PM
One of the best CE's I've seen.
Eduardo @ Aug 31st 2008 5:49PM
this special edition looks really looks nifty
DesertPyrate @ Aug 31st 2008 8:38PM
The game is gonna be great but I dont care for the whole extra thing unless its like exclusive content that can be used in the game, the action figures are cool and all, I'll just pop for the regular addition
