Skyrim Collector's Edition Requires Enormous Box

apparently theres, like, a figurine and a map in it? thats whats stopping me from pre-ordering it. so i spent my money on my Halo combat evolved anniversary, battlefield 3 and AC: Revelations pre-orders instead!
OH. Shiny.
I think the nicest box would be the PS3 one, of course. The black bar always adds a bit of class.
That said, I might just throw the box out.

Yeah, but that was just the regular edition, And i was thinking about that too, until i realized Guitar Hero existed, and took the title easily.Steve Lovell said:

Ooh. I dunno if it's just the eternal child inside of me, or some sort of a more primitive instinct from our gatherer ancestors, but something about massive, bulky things really appeals to me. At least in this case. Some collectors' editions I've seen have been kinda lame, what with small packages that really don't say "I'm such a huge fan that I went ahead and purchased the more expensive one, simply out of love for this thing, possibly after already buying it once!" And then there's the massive or otherwise awesome boxes that come with all kinds of great goodies. Both of the Witcher titles had great collector's editions (at least if you managed to wrap your head around the behemoth that was the cheatsheet for what which edition in which country contained).
Then again, this I find somewhat underwhelming, despite the undeniable quality of massiveness. It's a cardboard box, unless I'm sorely mistaken, and I can't help but feel the goods are kinda... lacking. I mean, it's all nice, but it's still just a statue, a book and a map. Nothing all that clever or cool. Cookie-cutter by the standards of CE's, even. I'm sure it's all of good quality, but I can't help wondering if there should be something more in a massive box costing 150 bucks. I mean, someone already mentioned Bioshock 2 with the record, which is actually cool and clever, and have you SEEN the stuff in the Witcher CEs? I probably wouldn't get this, even though I'm sure someone will get some joy out of it. Might get the book when it inevitably appears on eBay in a bit, though.

So we're not allowed to complain because you have it worse?not_you said:
The fuck kind of logic is that?
I am, because it's not being sold for ?150 in Ireland. In fact even if it was I was going to get it. I love art books, I love TES and the dragon statue looks amazing to my eyes.SmashLovesTitanQuest said:
to be fair i was more pissed that the standard edition is £35 and the CE is £95 more... unless it comes with a free whore or two i'm not sure i'll even bother with the CE!not_you said:
My main concern is, why is there a bell on her desk?
All seriousness if can manage to find one, I'll most likely buy it. I do get obscene pleasure from collectors editions.
Though for me its always harder to get PC collectors edition than console...

Umm, am I missing something here? How have Bethesda ripped Europe off? I live in Europe and I want to know why I should be feeling ripped off!SmashLovesTitanQuest said:
I am gonna assume you should feel ripped off because apparently it isn't fair that you should pay more to cover the costs of shipping giant dragon statues around the world... if you want to buy said statue. (but seriously I have no idea where these things are being packed and shipped from, probably China)Proverbial Jon said:
OT: I pre-ordered mine and am very much looking forward to it.
PS: When the promotional picture has a DELL in it, I would say that looks troubling for PC gamers.
You mean...Steve Lovell said:
OT:Fucking hell,you could build a fucking fort out of that box!
Ahh right, I see. Well I haven't seen a price for it in the UK yet, so I'll base my decision on the overal price and whether or not it's good value as a... LOL like hell I will! I'm buying this whatever the cost!Dimitriov said:
Your Euros mean nothing to me! For I live in the land of the United Kingdoms where we still cling desparately to our native coin. They'll never take it from us, they'll never take the precious...SmashLovesTitanQuest said:
