Wherever there's something desirable, there's an opportunity to make money and the more enticing the product, the further the envelope is pushed. Never has this been more appropriate in gaming than with collector's editions and premium content. Standard charge for access to the main game, but for those with deeper pockets, more coin equals content in the form of miniature sculptures, postcards, artwork compendiums, maps and other assorted material. That's not to say these additional accessories are worthless trash with there being excellent releases by certain developers, and that's the reasoning behind this thread.
You can submit a maximum of two collector's editions, preferably that you have purchased or have experience with. Those which you felt were worth the extra cash and worth keeping. You may also submit an additional two which are either collecting dust in your mother's basement or are still burning a hole in your wallet/conscious, but this is optional and based upon personal preference. Submissions must be physical releases only and premium editions that offer more content than the base game. Compilation packs, limited editions and everything else associated is allowed, although they must be physical releases as stated prior.
Mine:
Second Place: GTA IV Collector's Edition
Highlight: Safety Deposit Box
You don't seem to get much for the money, but that safety deposit box with the GTA IV logo is bitchin! Plus the Rockstar keychain an excellent addition.
First Place: Fallout: New Vegas Collector's Edition
Highlight: Playing Cards
Actual playing cards with custom artwork pertaining to the multiple personalities and characters in the game? Absolute winner all around.
Worst:
Second Place: Dead Island: Riptide Collector's Edition
Highlight: Torso Statue
Did anybody buy this garbage?
First Place: Fear 3 Collector's Edition
Highlight: Alma Statue
Glow in the dark statue that's absolutely hideous.
