I was hoping for a map of Ireland :(
[QUOTE=Inconspicuous;30656949]I wish limited editions went back to having loads of great stuff. The last good LE I saw was Halo Reach. [img]http://levelupnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/halo_reach_LE.jpg[/img] That journal had incredible detail and it came with a little sleeve full of cool stuff like patches and the likes. Remember when all limited editions had as much effort put in as this? I'm looking at you Black Ops.[/QUOTE] "Yeah well I got the LE BO!" "Yeah well I got EVERYTHING IN LE BO because LE BO doesn't have SHIT!" "Sooo LE is LE" "Boy, you sure are daft"
Ow yeah? I got the LE BO SE UE Directors cut
[QUOTE=darth-veger;30657988]And why is that?[/QUOTE] It was amazing, that's why.
I bought the Signature Edition for DA2 which was essentially the Collectors Edition. Nothing much was included (DLC and soundtrack).
What the fuck? How is Facepunch complaining about this? You guys must be fucking spoiled fans. They're giving a free, nice, piece of the game's lore if you pre-order it as a token of thanks for pre-ordering there game. This is what pre-orders should be. Not exclusive in-game content, exclusive weapons, and other shit. Pre-orders should be something nice you can keep to show off your fandom for the game and that you pre-ordered it. Also, it's not like this is the game's limited edition or anything, it's a bonus for pre-ordering the regular edition.
Ugh, I just pre ordered standard skyrim for the pc, now there gonna come out with a fucking limited edition and im gonna have to go to gamestop and tell them to change my pre order. [editline]23rd June 2011[/editline] I also wonder if you pre order something before they announce a pre order bonus, do you get the bonus?

And changing the pre-order isn't such a big deal. In some cases, it costs a little more to pre-order Special Editions, but its never and outrageous amount and it still pays for part of the game in advance.
[QUOTE=LordApocca;30659823]It was amazing, that's why.[/QUOTE] This shit is confusing, where are you talking about? The package or the game itself?
Good. I'm tired of pre-order bonuses being PRE-ORDER AND RECEIVE TONS OF GOLD AND AN INCREDIBLY OVERPOWERED EXCLUSIVE WEAPON
The map looks to be the same colorless one that Oblivion came with. I'll pass.

[QUOTE=TheL33tist;30656775]Skyrim better not use GFWL. New Vegas used Steam, which is definitely a step in the right direction.[/QUOTE] or they should just have no DRM so that everyone is happy
I actually really hate this idea. Every elder scrolls game has come with a physical map since Morrowind. Why should I have to preorder the game in order to get the map this time around? I feel cheated. Getting a map of the world was always something I appreciated from Bethesda. Now they're just like everyone else :sigh:
If you read it, it says "Premium Quality Map" so what that probably means is it will be more like the Morrowind map, whereas nonpreorders will get one more like the Oblivion map. But you know what? Ohh well. Its five whole dollars I pay early. It costs nothing extra.

Because I work at a store that sells video games and I could get 10% off the new game if I buy it there. But if I'm forced to have to preorder it from Gamestop to get a premium map then I'm stuck paying more.

Anyone who gives a crap about the game is going to put down 5 dollars to pre-order it anyway. The fact that they're offering a higher quality map is already an improvement over its ancestor.

[QUOTE=TheL33tist;30656775]Skyrim better not use GFWL. New Vegas used Steam, which is definitely a step in the right direction.[/QUOTE] most likely they would, if they have not learn their lesson.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;30660919]Good. I'm tired of pre-order bonuses being PRE-ORDER AND RECEIVE TONS OF GOLD AND AN INCREDIBLY OVERPOWERED EXCLUSIVE WEAPON[/QUOTE] I remember the lighting gun you could get in Metro 2033 if you preordered, and you would easily get it incredibly early on. Holy fucking shit, that was overpowered.
My favorite LE is the Dead Space 2 one. A music disk, online/single player skins, cool little comics, and a fuggin' toy plasma cutter :buddy:
All this talk of LE and CE. The Witcher 2 came with a propaganda flier, map, coin, soundtrack, bonus DVD with pictures and promo art, and a papercraft thing. And this is just standard.
[QUOTE=Slight;30661985] Where in the article does it say anything about gamestop?[/QUOTE] I checked Gamestop's website and it was the preorder bonus and I haven't heard anything at work about it so I wasn't sure.
Does anyone have a picture of the morrowind map?
I thought the maps already came with the game like the Oblivion one? I figured we would get something cooler for pre-ordering.
I want a framed, canvas map, in full color.
Games for Windows != Games for Windows - Live If it uses Live, it will say so on the cover. [img]http://cdn0.spong.com/news/g/t/gtaivspcgu278225/_-GTA-IV-Cover-Shot-Out-Windows-_.jpg[/img]
That stupid "games for windows" strip ruins a great looking box
