Killzone 2 | Collectors edition will arrive, but why bother Sony?

Sony announce a while back that Killzone 2 would not be getting a collectors/limited edition. One of the biggest PS3 games of 2009 with no collectors edition. Personally I thought this was a crazy idea, I was sure many other collectors out there were just a perplexed.

But, Sony has now back tracked… and Killzone 2 will get a limited edition released in some geographical regions, mainly Europe. However, there’s a catch. The so called limited edition is my personal pet hate, a Tin box. Just a tin box… ok so it’s not going to be much more expensive than the “standard” version but it appears you do not get any other extra’s. No making of DVD, now art work, nothing.

Sorry Sony that just plain sucks! Halo Wars CE for me this month!

Interesting blog post over at VGPC.com regarding the resale value of collectors editions, seems they do offer better value for money….. and some may even reap you a handsome profit in the years ahead!

Well worth a read.

Collectors Editions are a good deal for gamers
