Borderlands 2 Special Editions Bring the Loot

[soren7550]

While I like special editions, there just isn't enough to justify spending $150 USD in my opinion (though I admit, I do like that box).

 

[Aeshi]

Wow, that's a lot of stuff.

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wallet,
merchandise don't grow on trees.
I got cards to post,
I got books to store,
There ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't price down,
I can't hold back,
Though you know, I wish I could.
No there ain't no rest for the wallet,
Until the franchise ends for good.

If I had a medal I would give it to you for that.

That was brilliant! You get all the cookies and internets!

OT: I am sooooooo getting that Ultimate Loot Chest Limited Edition!

 

[EHKOS]

I'm buying that loot chest. I missed out on the Pandora's Box thing from GOW. Holy crap that Ultimate edition has a lot of shit. I want it soooooo bad.

 

[laggyteabag]

I don't understand the whole "Gearbox guns" thing, isn't the whole game about finding random loot? And having (Most likely) OP guns that you will never replace until you are max level, kinda defeats the point...

 

[The Great JT]

Lot of bang for the buck, by the look of things, and that's not even including the Gamestop preorder bonus.

 

[Adam Jensen_v1legacy]

That is a lot of stuff. These guys are doing everything right with Borderlands 2. I can't wait to shower them with money.

The first Borderlands had special pre-order guns too, but they got outclassed pretty quickly (about level 7-10 I think). They're mainly just there so you start with something fancy as opposed to having to wait a few levels to get it.

 

[cricket chirps]

so ._. yeah was iffy about getting it and now i REALLY want that replica loot chest. Those are a classic to me. Very recognizable.

Is it just me or does anyone else want all that stuff to actually be IN the loot chest when you get it?

So much win my friend!

OT: I really can't afford to get this... but i think i will

Now that's how you do it!

OT: Holy crap, I think I might actually get the first special edition. The second one is also nice but $150 is just waaay too much for me.

 

[iniudan]

If I had money, I would order the limited edition if the loot chest happen to be large enough, but right now my video games budget that use to be above $1000/year went down to almost zero until September. And even then it will stay limited until summer 2013. =(

 

[Chairman Miaow]

Is the loot box available in UK for pre-order anywhere?I want it...

I bet it isn't, and if it isn't, I shall have a tantrum and review bomb and pirate it etc.

OHO SATIRE!

 

[Vanbael]

I want that, all of that. I'll settle for the Marcus bobble head but when I saw the loot box I just dropped my jaw.

 

[lordlillen]

darn thats the best special edition i have seen in a long time too bad im saving up for kingdom hearts 10th anniversary collection.

And I want it packed in dry ice so smoke comes out when I open it.
I usually just get the regular version of a game (the exception is my Fallout 3 Lunchbox edition which I got as a gift) but I played Borderlands so much I kind of feel obligated to get the ultimate edition. That and the Marcus bobblehead & Vending machine will look nice next to my Vault Boy bobblehead.

See but that makes awesome sense having a gaming bobble head collection so you should def get every special edition from here on out with a bobble head in it lol. As for me i really could do without the bobble head. I dont feel Marcus was as iconic to the game as fallout boy was to fallout. and yeah as of late ._. im starting to get sucked into the special editions a lot. They are just getting a lot better over all. Got screwed out of getting the diablo one because i pre-ordered too late :c i wanted ze art book and angel wings!

 

[CrazyCapnMorgan]

Well now I've got something to save up for come September...

The thing is, I cancelled my Collector's Edition of Diablo 3 to pre-order this. Methinks I made a pretty good move.

Hankman would have been so proud of you. You get a Hankman medal for that.

Oh Gearbox! You had me at 'Scale Replica Red Chest'. <3
