  • Spiffy.

  • I wanted a statue of big daddy, biggier than the one before. A book not worthed, posters? Hvae too many!

  • Although art books are cool the ones that have come from games are really not that great.  In order to get a GOOD art book you need to have something a much more substatial size, like a coffee table book or something.

  • pretty cool.

  • must... buy... special... edition... doesn't matter... what... the contents... are... wish... had... $100... to spend...

  • It's very awesome, but something that's going to be $100 needs a little more content than just a couple of soundtracks.

  • Oops, I missed the part about the art book.  I guess that makes up for it... :)

  • i've come to my senses and realized this is a waste of money. $100? thats crazy and nothing here is worth it. i'll stick to my $20 cheaper Master Assassin's Edition which contained better contents. however, if i have had the money, i would have bought it anyways since i love collecting collector's editions of video games.

  • I think the addition of the vinyl LP is classy on 2K's part.  It just aligns with the atmosphere of the game, which by the way, I am so stoked for.

  • Ohhh, vinyl. Don't see that too often. I'm going to get out my turntable.

  • $89.99 for PC. Im glad they didn't follow the Modern Warfare 2 trend of $60 PC games.

  • I will have to sell my left testicle just to afford this... but it's a body part well sold.

  • well poo.  its an okay set and id love to have it, but theres no way its worth $100.  what a shame.  

  • i should clarify, its actually definitely worth 100$, i just cant afford that =P

  • Hmm i kinda want a statue.

  • Nice, the posters and the art book sounds cool!

  • I'll be picking this one up for sure! The contents are very appropriate if nothing else, I really wish they had put the new score on vinyl though, to be honest I can't imagine why they didn't considering they already went to the trouble of pressing one.

  • I'll take the vinyl... that's some awesome effort put into a special edition right there.

  • a soundtrack, and a couple posters. No thank you

  • Big Daddy or Big Sister statue. That is all
