Not bad for a CE. I'll probably get it just because I want SR2 anyway.

I am definitely getting this, no matter the UK price! I'm am a huge Saints Row fan, and I KNOW that this game will be better than GTA IV

This game does look better then GTA 4, I agree, but I loved GTA 4, and I know GTA series will rise over Saints Row once again, but this game does look like fun. Bullet shaped USB? Thats awesome.

Sweet a USB stick that looks like a bullet? That'll look funny in my computer.

That shit is worthy an extra 20 bucks? I think not.

Saturday, July 12, 2008 @ 07:23:04 PM

I agree with comment 14, not worth it at all. I'll just get the regular game whenever it comes out. These SE's lately have been complete ass.

i wonder how big the usb drive is more than a gig hopefully

i just hope the usb drive is big enough for my porn collection, is there a better place to hide porn than a usb in the form of a bullet... i don't think so. but anyway i don't think this game is going to be better than gta4

Sounds like a way of persuading people in buying an average game.

I'm in

USB Drive? Thats a neat idea, i'm sure it will be 256MB though, but it's stilll a good idea.

that bullet is just a rip off of the scream, aim, fire album by bullet for my valentine (came with a bullet USB)

No CE is worth the extra money, games are already pricey enough.

wow, I'm gonna buy the collector's edition! I have USB boba fett and now there will be a bullet, sweet.

sounds interesting but im not 100% sure the bonus items are good enough to shell out the extra cash given that the art book wil no doubt be released on its own eventually and the map poster will just be copied in the walkthrough guide.

Comment #28 by Luis Ownz
Saturday, July 12, 2008 @ 09:23:37 PM

Lol, 22, its only a ripoff if they look the same, sheesh.
"OMG BUT MAI ALBUM CAME WIT BULIT USB, NO FAIR, U FAIL, SR2 WILL NEVER SELL NAO!"

a usb port, playing cards? what kind of collector's edition is that? a nerd's paradise.

Comment #30 by MrRedrum
Saturday, July 12, 2008 @ 09:27:15 PM

I'll buy this game anyways but I dunno about the CE... if its a decent sized USB drive then it might be worth it since I need one... but it all depends on that size and the cost for drives when the game drops. Otherwise... nothing interesting.

Comment #31 by Luis Ownz
Saturday, July 12, 2008 @ 09:47:02 PM

And you know what most people do with the art books? They look through in the way back home, or when they open the case, saying "Oh wow, cool." and stuff like that, then, they never look at it until they go to bed, and then after that night, the next time they look through the book is when their friends are over, saying "Oh yeah, you see that, that looks so awesome." and then they eventually sell it.
Am I right? Am I right?

@30, too true.
It seems like every other god damn game has a collecters edition, limited edition, stop trying to fuckin milk the gaming community of all their cash, pretty soon no-ones going to have enough cash to buy them anymore....

OMG CARDS! HELL YEAH! I liked Saints Row's story but the online didn't cut it for me, but I will rent it for sure, as I did with the first one.

Lol, clone of GTA. first one was terrible. why bother paying 79.99 for garbage.

Comment #46 by killacams10
Sunday, July 13, 2008 @ 09:49:51 AM

what happened to the price tag of 69.99 for a collectors edition?, sure the usb is a great idea, but all the other things its been seen before, expect for maybe the playing cards, not too thrilled about that one, this game is looking alittle greedy if you ask me, 79.99, 20 bucks extra mostly for a usb, although a great idea, i dont see myself paying an extra 20 for a usb, and for all the people thinking how much memory, its most likely going to be either 56 or 128, they see it as more of a collectors item, then to think people actually want a decent size, and for the comparisions to GTA, it all depends what you looking for, you want something out there to rival GTA, look else where, you wont find it with this title, but for the people who are looking to have some fun, GTA style, this is a

@28 they do look the same, its the same USB only this one will have SR2 written on it whereas the other one had Bullet For My Valentine written on it

Sunday, July 13, 2008 @ 04:18:17 PM

NO CHANCE. the bullet shaped USB drive would be cool but i'm sick of usless poasters and general garbage for "COLLECTORS" they should have something cooler like 6 inch figurines.

a bullet shaped usb sounds cool

Tuesday, July 22, 2008 @ 03:19:58 PM

i think the only good thing is the USB ( love the idea ). The rest is just basically rubbish. why the hell do you want playing cards? you can't do f**k all with them. you can properly sell them on ebay or something. And the poster with the map you'll get with the standard game anyway.

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
