StarCraft II Collector's Edition: The Unboxing

[KwaggaDan]

It's like X-Mas. Only better. Only 2 hours left in Sunny South Africa...

Have a blessed Starcraft II Eve

Were you tearing up a bit at the end there, Funk?

 

[Carnagath]

Quality Collectors Editions like that, with worthwhile extras are sadly becomeing few and far between.

I don't think I agree, having only recent bought the Bioshock 2 CE at a great price which is even better than SC2's.

The original StarCraft wasn't in 800x600, but 640x480.

I know since I still play it and will keep playing it, just 'cause it supports LAN, unlike a certain lazy sequel Blizzard did.

Lmao, I literally laughed out loud at the "Starcraft Eve" thing.

Can't wait for tomorrow. First day shipping!

Also yeah, original was 640x480. not 800x600.

See, that's what I THOUGHT. But a certain cameraman said he was playing it on his mac in 600x800 so I had to change it... Lousy CaptainCrunch.

 

[HarmanSmith]

I'm torn. I really really want to get a look at that art book, but imagine how much an unopened CE would be worth in another 10 years! Must be strong...

 

[Deadman Walkin]

That is what I will be lining up for tonight Boy I can't wait.

I pre-ordered this Collector's Edition the day it was announced. I AM READY!!! I've stocked-up on new underwear, but I still need to figure out how to be good at RTS'es without using cheats...

 

[GundamSentinel]

Now, I'm not particularly fond of Starcraft, but that is one mighty fine looking collector's edition. Wow, a game soundtrack that is actually on CD and not for free download (curse you, Rockstar)...

 

[Eruanno]

Happy StarCraft 2-Eve to you too, John! *slight frothing at mouth*

 

[Elburzito]

John Funk Looks just like my cousin.
OT: My buddy pre-ordered the Collectors edition. I think he will be pleased. I helped pay for it, as a birthday present .

I am getting my collectors edition at midnight! YAY! Unfortunately, won't be installing it till thursday. Damn summer school finals.

 

[Azmael Silverlance]

im so happy i live in australia hehehe ^^

 

[Blow_Pop]

Yay midnight release tonight and i get mine <3 I'm exceedingly glad I preordered it....*jumps up and down in fan girl excitement* and holy cow 12 years......its just now hitting me how long I've been waiting....

The installation has been enabled in the EU a few minutes ago. Judging from the plot recap of the installation screen, it seems that Brood War is considered non-canon. That is....fucking weird. Bullshit detector status: yellow. Let's see how they make up for this.

Well, BW basically ended in a reset anyway...UED gone, Dominion back in place, new Overmind dead...a couple of old characters died, but we haven't seen any Fenix yet, so they might just sorta ignore BW to keep the recap simple.

I am jealous that you have the game and of your sideburns

 

[Chase Yojimbo]

I'm thuroughly dissapointed in the collectors edition. If you are gonna get a collectors edition, the least they can do is give you something gamewise like a special kick ass map or another few missions added to the campaign, I don't need to look cheery eyed at a collectors art book and watch fat sweaty men at a computer screen for roughly 7 hours. Maybe the music that thats as far as my geekdom goes!

So glad i didn't pre order it lol xD

 

[lumenadducere]

That's actually pretty cool. I passed on the Collector's because I didn't have the cash for it, but I kind of wish I'd been able to get it. Ah well, here's hoping for something similar for the Protoss/Zerg expansions. As it is I'm pretty happy to be picking up the game itself at midnight.

And yes, Happy SCII Eve to you too, Mr. Funk.
