Halo3 legendary edition (not sure about the name). The one with the plastic MC helmet for 130$.killerfistIf it didn't cost so much it would of been a pretty good deal. But 130 is to much..

[QUOTE="InsaneBasura"]Battlefield: Bad Company You didn't get anything.Gay-Lord-Perry:lol: you serious , well knowing EA im not surprised Well you got a poster so tiny I guess the intention was for you to wipe your ass with it. But it's all glossy so you can't even use it for that . Apart from that, what you paid for were things equal to nothing. A cheat to unlock weapons and videos they excluded from the standard edition. Were supposed to be eight videos, even says so on the back of the box, but there are only seven. So if you were dumb enough to buy this CE you can mail EA and get a coupon for their crappy, overpriced online store.
I have never been interested in those CE that offer trinkets and what-not. I prefer the CE's with the "making of" features. Given that, I would say that the Ubisoft CE's tend to be at that bottom of my list, as the special features are often too brief or uninterresting to be enjoyable.
My favorite CE's are Halo 2 and Halo 3 (not the helmet edition, which can be had for about $60US new, btw.) These are examples of how CE, or special editions, or whatever you want to call them, should be done.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma CE is the weakest by far... seriously WTF?!

Yeah. The Gold Edition unlocks five rank 25 weapons for multiplayer immediately. It's essentially a worthless cheat.Spiderman 3 PS3 - came with the different box art with black suit spidy and option to play as green goblin... who still had to be unlocked somewhere in the game, wasn't even unlocked at the beginning... worse LE purchase ever.
worth it? nope!
Best SE was MGS4 Guns of the Patriots. The soundtrack. Making of bluray and the packaging were all tops for just 84.99. Worst is hands down GTAIV. Gym bag? Lock box? wtf?Bread_or_Decide
I wanted the soundtrack from that limited edition, but instead I got a stripped-down half-soundtrack. It didn't have the boss fight themes or the in-game caution/alert music.
The best CE was Stranglehold for the PS3, you know, that John Woo game. It took advantage of Blu-Ray by giving you a movie on the same disc of the game.ChrisSpartan117I almost spit my cereal out, I forgot all about this, I bought it for 40 bucks @ BB and thought hey 20 bucks for a game and 20 bucks for a movie, not bad. Great movie too, even if the dubs suck lol
DMC 4, the metal tin was nice, but the extra dvd's blew, especially the "anime" not worth $79.99mmirza23
the anime was good, and name one game what actually comes with good extra dvds in the collectors edition, o wait trick question you CAN"T....The dmc collectors was top notch for the price only surpassed by fallout
PDZ lol its only had a collector card and few pics WTFSyferonikit also came in a steelbook. at least geow le came with an art book that told the story of the pendulum war and e-day. pdz le was just a metal box and a shiny card.
Doom 3. First and Last CE I bought.waynehead895Are you kidding? It came with all of the original Doom games and plus that packaging was just plain BAD ASS :o
The best CE was Stranglehold for the PS3, you know, that John Woo game. It took advantage of Blu-Ray by giving you a movie on the same disc of the game.ChrisSpartan117Not the best CE but it is great.
Bought it over Xmas and it is FANTASTIC Having Hard Boiled (one of the best action movies ever conceived) on Blu Ray...
Oh the game is fun too.
[QUOTE="InsaneBasura"]Battlefield: Bad Company You didn't get anything.iam2greenwe have a winner :D
i think the halo with the helmet. it didn't even fit a persons' head unless they are like a baby or something.
That's because it wasn't meant to be worn on the head.
The worst CE I ever bought was DMC4. All I got with it was a crappy art book.
[QUOTE="All_that_is_Man"] and name one game what actually comes with good extra dvds in the collectors edition,HewkiiWorld in Conflict. plus you got a piece of the Berlin Wall, to boot.World in Conflict's was awesome - You had a History Channel DVD, Making of DVD, Piece of the Berlin Wall and an awesome box - happy with mine
Of recent Medieval Total War 2 is still one of the best. Came in an awesome, large Box too.
One of the most dissapointing:
The best bit was the Box.
The sampler game guide was pathetic, the t-shirt... was a t-shirt.... and it was on DVD in a jewl case instead of paper slips.
Cmon Valve, that was a sorry effort.
