Wah lau. So many CE buyers in this thread. Here's my modest collection over the past year :

Fallout New Vegas CE
Dead Rising 2 ZE
God of War III UE
COD : Black Ops PE
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood CE
Mafia II CE
Castlevania LOS CE
Star Wars Force Unleached II CE
LBP 2 CE
Dante's Inferno Death Ed
Blazblue Continuum Shift CE
Super Street Fighter IV CE
Dead Space 2 CE
GT 5 CE

Have also got a couple of CEs from my PC gaming days including :

Starcraft II CE
Sid Meier's Civilization V CE
Sid Meier's Civilization III CE
Baldur's Gate II CE

And YS Seven PE (for PSP).

Will find time to post pics soon.

Recommendation for CE hunters besides Ebay. If you travel overseas or even Singapore sometimes can get good bargains on CE. My Castlevania was bought from there at SGD 80 when it was first launch, and I saw Bioshock CE & Fallout 3 CE going for SGD 70 there that time (too bad I didn't buy them). Since already travelling, why not just hunt for them smile.gif.

hmmm..looks like my collecting gonna slow down for a few month..only interested in 2 or 3 till the middle of the year.
impressive collection. which version of ac brohood u have?
*
Ac Brotherhood is the R1. Actually wanted to get the R2 Codex edition but the box is so big that my friend from UK could not bring it back.

Anyhow, I'm thinking of getting it while I'm there as some UK online websites drop price liao. This and a few really nice CEs like GT5 Signature & WWE 2011 Bret Hart Edition!

Where? Far East Plaza?
*
Not Far East or Sim Lim as those places don't really put price (a bit like the Sg Wang outlets). I'd recommend go to the retailers like Gamescore or the outlets in Funan. Sometimes Funan got exhibition where even the normal games are so darn cheap like SGD 15!!! although it may not be so famous (eg Dark Void, Ghostbusters, GT Prologue, etc.).

aiyoh. thought all of you would know the online retailer websites?

Amazon.co.uk, game.co.uk, gamestation.co.uk, shopto.net, etc.

I think game.co.uk is the best coz got some exclusives (like the Bret Hart Ed!!!) but shopto.net is the cheapest.

Hahahaha, hmmm and I was just reading your Signature highlighting your collection.

Actually because pergi lancong sikit must get most value out of it, thats why look for cheap value games especially CE. So sad that we can't get it cheaper here, while SG gets priority over us sometimes.

1. Infamous Hero Edition
2. Duke Nukem Balls of Steel Edition
3. Mortal Kombat Both Tournament & Colletor's Edition. WHy can't they just have one Super Edition where have everything inside? Sigh.

me too thumbup.gif .i was ok with ff13 but versus 13 is a must.the ce,ce guide,figurine,console,cup,everything.coz its very2 worth it to buy ff v13 stuff with noctis on it laugh.gif
*
Wah big time FF fan smile.gif forgot to add I also have both the CE and the Limited Ed soundtrack. Should have waited a bit longer for the R3 or Chinese FF13 CE though (mine's R2) coz I think the goodies are better including the DS3 controller. Damn companies releasing this late or keeping the news a tight lid. Even GT 5 2nd edition CE feels nicer (got more DLC cars some more).

Here. Manage to take a pic of some Old School Collector's Edition (all PC Games). The Far Cry 2 haven't even open the black t-shirt bundled with it yet. Can't bear to part with them (BG II is serialized). Also have Civilization V CE & Starcraft II CE but not in pic.

Later will try to take a shot of the PS3 CE games.

sry guys for asking noob question..y some bought the CE then never open the sealed box (i saw plastic wrapping)?
*
Well some wants to sell it. For me, normally I just use a blade to slice the seal around the opening while the rest of the side is still in Plastic wrapping. Of course this only happens for those CEs that come shrink wrapped with easy opening. I tried to do it for DS2 CE but unfortunately because of the way the box is made can't do it.

I got my Nanatsuiro Drops DS from Amazon.co.jp. It was really scary because they have a few of them in stock when I first saw it, then sold out in less than a week (I don't have the money to buy at that time). But suddenly they have 1 left in stock when I almost decided to buy at a higher price from Amazon Marketplace sellers. So I ordered that last one instead. tongue.gif

As for the Triggerheart Exelica, I fished it out from Yahoo Auctions Japan. Have to use proxy services to ship both games over here since they don't ship them outside Japan. moneyflies.gif

Actually, I agree that Japan has way a lot of CE kinda stuff. One walk in Akihabara (the no. 1 electronics suburb), and you're tempted to like buy everything you see. Myself a Macross fan, but if I buy all the Macross CE stuff, I'd probably be bankrupt by now.

True MGS Fan. Buys not just 1 CE but 3 CE of the same type.

Why so many Portable Ops? One for each region?

Wow. that's really serious stuff - 1 PS3 Slim for the GOW 3 press kit.

Was just browsing through ebay, and saw a few more press kits going for at least USD 200 if not much much more.
