Alien vs Predator (3) buying options - Games

Since there are so many options on buying AvP, I decided to post this thread and ask you all, what would you do/will you do? First thing's first. There are the Special editions : [B]SURVIVOR EDITION[/B] [LIST] [*]Limited Edition Steelbook [*]4 x Exclusive multiplayer maps [/LIST] [B]HUNTER EDITON [/B] [LIST] [*]Prestige Packaging [*]The Survivor Edition (Steelbook + Exclusive maps) [*]Replica Mouldable Facehugger [*]Weyland logo – material sleeve badge [*]3D Lenticular card [/LIST] You can pre-order those from certain sites or buy them from your local PC shop when the game will be released (19 February). The single thing I'm not sure about is if they come for PC too. Since you can already pre-order them for Xbox and Psp3, but there's no pre-order option for PC. The second option would be STEAM. And if you pre-purchase it on STEAM you also receive [URL="http://store.steampowered.com/app/10430/"]Universe at War: Earth Assault[/URL] for free and 3 unique skins for multiplayer play (for AvP). Again, I'm not sure if they will allow you to activate the cd key from the retail box or special editon (whatever) on STEAM (activate product on Steam thingy). [B]So, this brings us back to the original question "What would you guys do?"[/B]

If I had the money, I'd get the Hunter Edition for PC. If only it was for PC :3: Otherwise I'll be preordering it on Steam, Play.com isn't accepting my credit card since I'm only 17. :argh:

I pre-ordered by steam because it was just best option for me. Also i love those skins!

will preorder for steam, wish they could send me a facehugger plushie :3:

Got it on steam

Because all those trinkets make the game better right? Getting the regular edition.

That one with the Facehugger for PS3.

Holy shit. I'm probably gonna buy the hunter edition now that I know it comes with a replica facehugger :D

[IMG]http://images.play.com/covers/10085177x.jpg[/IMG] This one for £18. Screw you and your extra packaging and metal case. The Hunter one is more than double the price

I preordered on steam last friday

Extra Maps what the fuck. Special editions should NEVER reduce the gameplay of or hinder the "lower" product.

[QUOTE=Odellus;19863613]paper maps of the game maps.[/QUOTE] "4 x Exclusive multiplayer maps" I don't think so some how.

[QUOTE=Melon_Mapper;19863648]"4 x Exclusive multiplayer maps" I don't think so some how.[/QUOTE] Which only "exclusive people" who buy the special edition get to play. I don't think there are going to be too many. Besides, if they release some mapping tools we can make some pretty neat maps.

Rules are rules bro.

I will stick to the regular version. Hardly anyone will probably be on the special versions, and if only an SDK was released, someone would make them anyway, along with some good classic AVP maps.

[QUOTE=radu_iceman;19865773]I played AvP2 when I was 10-11 ... so yeah. I'm quite amazed they haven't censored it in Australia.[/QUOTE] I think it is rare now that anyone even pays attention to the rating on the box.

Nah, play.com for me, It's £7 cheaper, comes with the skins still and I don't really care about Universe at War, from what i've seen of it it's pretty mediocre. Normal version btw, I can't seem to find the Survivor or Hunter on PC :(

[QUOTE=LeYang;19867115]wat.[/QUOTE] He means that by getting the 4 "exclusive" maps, they're really giving you the maps that are gonna be in the first DLC pack.

[QUOTE=LtBubbles;19862790]will preorder for steam, wish they could send me a facehugger plushie :3:[/QUOTE]They could just make one based off of the Headcrab plushie hat, except its a mask.
