Super Special Limited One-of-a-Kind Edition – The Last of Us Gets Your Last Penny

Over the last few years, the sheer number of special editions to come out has pretty much ruined the meaning of the phrase, as each game that hits retail gets some form of limited edition or a special item to justify its price bump. With that, the Daily Reaction crew of Seb and Dan discuss how the changes in the market are pushing developers and retailers to find new ways to generate profit, and if this trend is ultimately hurting you, the consumer.

I wanted it to include apocalypse survival gear and a Joel-beard

I thought it would of basicaly Joels rucksack from the game with supplies in it and the game. Like a first aid tin with the artbook in, a diary with the dlc codes written down inside, the bits and bobs found in painkiller jars and maybe the steelbook wrapped in bandages

[doctorstrange]

Now that would be awesome

Now that would be awesome, a real survivors rucksack.

Right first of all apparently ND has said that the statue by it's self cost them $199 so if true count yourself lucky

Number 2

I'm so p***** off this isn't coming to Europe, I said something on the SCEE blog, all of us complaining about this by the way and my response was typical, SCEE worming their way round the question.

"Many factors come into play when making these editions. There might be opportunities for everyone to get the contents of the editions in other countries via promos and contests in the future."

So basically we Europe/UK fans have to compete in a contest and rely on luck to win one

ND have said that SCEE are the ones who decided what to release in their region so I would love to know what the many factors are....why the hell would they give us a smaller artbook, comic, no steelbook and no statue.

At least there's stickers...

I have no idea how this article is related to all your tags. "(Call of Duty, Forza Motorsport 4, Industry, PS Vita, PS3, Resident Evil 6, The Last Of Us, Wii U, Xbox 360)"

Really?

[Y_5150]

The only tags I think that I'll questioned would be "WiiU" and "PS Vita". If you have read the article, he mentions all the rest in his piece.

[Kingdom Come]

Why are people so adamant on commenting without reading the article?

[TheGrimOfDeath]

Hm, my mistake sorry.

Thinking about getting one of the Last of Us editions but I don't know if I really want any other than the standard with preorder bonuses. These collections sure get me sometimes haha.
