I’m not a fan of Collector’s Editions as they usually contain a lump of plastic tat at a stupid inflated price. Poker chips, art cards, naff statues, who needs that? Special editions need to have something unique, something cool, something like – ohmygod is that a freakin’ Plasma Cutter?!?!

The full contents of the Dead Space 2 Collector’s Edition:
If you pre-order then you also get Dead Space Ignition for free and with the inclusion of Extraction with the PS3 version that’s a hell of a lot of Necromorphic dismemberment for your money.
Now the bad news, this collector’s edition has only been announced for the U.S., the EU version contains all of the above – except the Plasma Cutter.
Epic fail EA, epic fail.

I’m sure if you really wanted this plastic piece of tat in Europe then eBay would easily accommodate

Plastic piece of tat?!
Call it that next time a Necromorph is chasing you down a dark corridor.
Happens all of the time in Birmingham.

You’d be surprised what people in Birmingham are frightened of!
Bright lights, work etc…
I should know, I am one!
Oh, and apparently I am four years older than the average gamer.

I assume that the PS3 version of Extraction is going to be on the store anyway?

What are the odds that the EU version will still cost the same as the US version? Stupid EU….

The game is an 18, so only adults can buy it, coupled with the facts that the average gamer is 34 years old… then they include a crappy piece of plastic tat kids plaything?
Rubbish, with stuff like this it’s no wonder my missus thinks I’m a sad twat for spending hours on a kids toy

It would appear that opinion is well and truly split on the concept of Limited Edition Wants against Limited Edition Tat, a subject for a more lengthy discussion perhaps…?
Just when does something become desirable as opposed to just expensive and impulsive? And is it all just personal opinion?

Gah I want this nearly as much as the replica Lancer! There is no point me getting them though as my misses gets angry when I accost her with them. Oh and the whole EU thing. I also really want the facehugger that came with AVP!

You can get the Facehugger AvP pack in HMV for about £15 atm.
