i cant believe theyre not packaging the official logitech driving force gt wheel with GT5.

[juniordee]

You do realize that wheel is like $150 right? That means they would have to give away GT5 for free and lose over $50 on every purchase.

I can't believe you want a new game + a $150 wheel for just $100...and complain about it.

actually its $130, and when did i ever say i wanted both for $100???? they could sell both for full retail and id still pay it ($190). it just seems odd they wouldnt even give us the option, being its the official wheel of gt5.

Wow, these look really nice. Assassins Creed Brotherhood, GT5, Fable 3, LBP2, Halo: Reach, Fallout and more all look like extremely high quality collectors editions.

[FalconR289]

I was at best buy the other day and they had a collectors edition for the ps3 unless what I saw was a typeo.

[Thepro318]

this alarming each year we see more and more collector edition . I worry next gen game standard price will 79.99 for next playstation an xbox

[dragon82]

I already have these on pre-order and paid for:

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood CE (PS3)
Fallout: New Vegas CE (PS3)
Gran Turismo 5 CE (PS3)
LittleBigPlanet 2 CE (PS3)

Might end up getting these at a later date:

Call of Duty: Black Ops Hardened (PS3)
Dead Rising CE (PS3)
GodenEye CE (Wii)

[Weaksauce1138]

Steelbooks should become a CE standard.

[BX81]

The only one I have pre ordered is the Reach Legendary. It's actually my first collectors edition. I don't like LBP but the CE looks cool as hell as well as the one for A. Creed.

[darren_poolies]

The Halo: Reach Xbox 360 Limited Edition system looks god-awful but the LBP2, DR2, GT5, F:NV and AC:B Collector's Edition look pretty cool, I may consider buying some of them. Defiantly the LBP2 one (for my gf) and the AC:B one (for me). :)

Oh and I'll probably get the COD:BO Hardend Edition for the 4 extra maps, medal and steel bookcase but I may consider the Prestige Edition instead :)
