BioWare Reveals Mass Effect 2 Collector's Edition
Any major game release gets its own collector's edition these days. I mean, all the cool kids are doing it. So when BioWare's Mass Effect 2 touches down on January 26, it will also be available in a deluxe edition with special content.
"We're really excited to roll out this Collectors' Edition featuring so many unique items, including special Collectors' Edition armor and weapons and content that will surprise Mass Effect fans," said Dr. Ray Muzyka, co-founder, BioWare and Group General Manager of the RPG/MMO Group of EA. "The limited edition comic book and bonus DVD will really enhance and expand the overall Mass Effect 2 experience."
The Collector's Edition will come in a premium tin case and include a 48-page hardcover Art of Mass Effect 2 book, the first issue of the Mass Effect Redemption comic book, a bonus DVD with behind-the-scenes and making-of videos... oh, yeah, and the game, too. Almost forgot about the game. In addition, you'll also have access to unique in-game weapons and armor only available with the purchase of this special edition.
I kind of hate when the special editions of games have extra weapons, armor or quests and stuff, but honestly, this is the first special edition I'm actually probably going to buy, and not for that. The original Mass Effect remains one of my favorite video game experiences ever, so I'm really interested in the art book and the making-of DVD. But you know what really sold me on it? The fact that it's only going to retail for $69.99 — that's only an extra $10 above the regular game! Sold!
