Pyroman31 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Pre-ordered the LE just now. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M7.Ninja Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I don't like the figurine, but the additional content will make me buy this one. I'll probably give the figurine to a friend who likes to collect them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalChaos15 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I pre-ordered it, yah ! this is going to be awesome. I usually don't pay the extra for the LE but with the Big Daddy figurine, I couldn't help myself. EDIT: Insomniac! There was going to be a poster! When and are they available anywhere, like on ebay. I got to have me one of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when I voted I voted for the cloth poster and it looked nice , if you google Bioshock Limited Edition they might have an old blog post featuring the items you could vote for I don't have the link on-hand. And as far as I know they are not selling them. BUT it still might come with the game but I am not promising anything. I guess we will see next Tuesday.

ViperxSniper Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 The manager at my local gamestop showed me the packaging for the collectors edition. It is pretty awesome, it comes in a huge box with a window to view the figure (looks like its made of ceramic), which is a whole lot better then that cheap crappy lost planet figure that fell apart with the slightest touch. For only $10 more, you will be getting more then what you paid for. The regular edition packaging even looked awesome (came with a case sleeve with big daddy popped up).

DoM cAbAn Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Ooh, I might have to get this Limited Edition one. I never have bought any other ones, so this'll be my first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRedrum Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 For those of you that haven't seen it yet or are really wondering what it looks like. Here is a picture of the Bioshock Limited Edition packaging. http://img.qj.net/uploads/articles_module/99287/BioshockCE_qjpreviewth.jpg?115601 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackanape Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 This is also available in England too but only from GAME, you can check out their website. It looks exactly the same as the US version.

Thrak360 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 At other forums, I saw these promo pics of the Collector's Edition, as it is called in Europe. Mentions a steelbook DVD case. I've also heard the discussions/complaining about the US's Limited Edition, which may have just a plastic DVD case. That's what's shown in the EBGames promo picture. Looks like it could be a double wide DVD case, which would be nice to hold the extra discs. I'd hate it to be a regular size DVD case, with extra discs inside the case with paper sleeves. http://www.ebgames.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=200317 click on the thumbnails http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/rabigjb/th_BioShock1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/rabigjb/th_BioShock2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/rabigjb/th_BioShock3.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/rabigjb/th_BioShock4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalChaos15 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 I know, after all the other games releasing a LE with just a metal box and bonus behind the scenes dvd, Bioshock is stepping up the game. The CD looks amazing, after playing the demo, I cant wait for the music. Plus it looks like an old record. A Big Daddy figurine...... If I dare say cooler than Master Chief........ Is awesome. A standard making of( behind the scene) dvd that is expected, plus a different box containing the best game of the summer. Wow, all for 10 bucks, that is why I pre-ordered the LE version!

DoM cAbAn Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Can anyone tell me where I can pre-order the Limited Edition of Bioshock? I was about to pre-order it off of EBGames, but now it doesn't show it there anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeW222 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 You may be too late Dom, but I'd try Gamestop. If the online store doesn't work try calling up some local stores to you and ask if they have pre-orders available for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecrazyguy Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 wow just looked at the picture of the LE pakaging. All game publishers and developers need to take a long hard look at bioshock, that my friends is how you do a Limited edition game!!! More than worth the extra 10$ Cant wait till tuesday to pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadcatNL Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 The packaging sure looks awesome, so does the figurine, and yeah, which gamer isn't a sucker for a metal box . Took me a while to find it, here in Belgium it was not available anywhere anymore, so I got a pre-order in The Netherlands. Will take me a 6 hour roundtrip to my parents to pick it up, but it's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz2k7 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 yes sounds sweat for you yanks, but i think england does not get this! so i have read. Preordered Bioshock collectors and yes we will be getting the Big Daddy figurine on this side of the pond (UK) I preordered mine from Game roll on friday when I get my hands on it :-) Game looks awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRedrum Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 This is an old picture but is a picture again of what is suppose to be in the Collector's Edition. I don't know if they are going to still do it but one of the things that we were going to get was going to be a Poster of some kind. In this picture it's (as you can see) a cloth poster. I just wanted to state that we shouldn't forget that we're also going to get a sweet cloth poster... unless if they change their mind lol. http://cache.kotaku.com/assets/resources/2007/04/bioshock_le.jpg Also, this is apparently the Cover Art of the Limited/Collector's Edition version of the game. http://www.2kgames.com/cultofrapture/features/coverfinalists/t1.jpg Link to see the full cover. http://www.2kgames.com/cultofrapture/features/coverfinalists/1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brsfan22 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I just read a listing on ebay selling the limited edition contents and it said that the statue is too heavy to ship, so if it wasn't already mentioned, I think it's probably made out of some heavy material like pewter.

They have a picture of the full final big daddy figure. And the figure is not too heavy to ship maybe that person is lazy lol , I got it on Gamestop.com and it said nothing about extra money for weight like it would with Guitar Hero or something. I heard the figure is kind of heavy though from Ken Levin from the Bioshock team but I don't see how that person would say it is too heavy to ship over eBay. I so hope we get that cloth poster though I looove stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRedrum Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 The picture I posted with the reported contents of the Limited Edition was the picture for what was actually said to be IN the Limited Edition. Also, I prefaced what I said with "This is an old picture..." Another thing, I posted earlier the picture of the Big Daddy Figurine for the LE. Anyways though, like you, I heard as well that the cloth poster was taken out of the LE. I did sign the petition to make the LE and voted for the contents of it. I will find out in 4 more hours if thats the case or not so I'll definitely come back and let everyone know if it's included or not if someone doesn't beat me to it from the East Coast. Lets hope that we can get everything that they said we would and didn't change their minds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
