Wow... people are actually going to pay a 42% markup for a worthless bonus CD? You can't even listen to the soundtrack in a CD player because it's on the freaking bonus CD. This has to be one of the most ridiculously blatant ripoffs I've ever seen.

Point taken, but I would rather have bonus materials I would actually use than a stupid helmet. I can't believe so many people bought that with Halo 3...


No argument there... I just think special editions in general are blatant ripoffs designed to sucker idiots into shelling out money for things they'll never ever ever use. I have similar feelings about people who actually purchase DLC.


Agreed, if I do buy the special edition it will be the first one I have ever bought. I am going to wait and see exactly how much sexier the casing is. That will make it or break it for me.

I feel the same way about DLC, though I have bought one Folklore expansion (was worth it, though buying all three definitely wouldn't have been) and one Warhawk expansion (was definitely worth it, and I would compare it to an expansion like Brood Wars on the PC). If I had Rock Band I would definitely buy some of that DLC.


 It will be my second, after the battle for Middle-earth II Collector's Edition.

Not including the Nintendo SEs, but those generally cost the same as the regular editions. I like Nintendo's method.  If you pre-order, you get the goods.  If you don't, then you don't.
