Collectors Edition
[QUOTE=SockDog;191693]Not sure how everyone else felt about the ETQW collectors edition but I felt it was a little lacking.
For Brink I’d love to see:[B]
A developer diary book/DVD.[/B] Perhaps include meeting notes during the key design phases of the game, don’t just put a slide-show of concept art together.
Keyfob/Flash Drive. Yes I still burn with jealousy thinking of those nifty flash drives you gave away for ETQW. Actually I’d ideally love a nice branded microSD usb card reader.
Full Soundtrack. If you have the rights, it would be nice to have it on a bonus disc.
Ringtones. They were a nice idea on ETQW but not really that good for use. Be excellent if you could not only do audio clips but also create some suitable Splash Damage quirky ones using in game assets.
NO Exclusive, levels, armour, maps, gayness. Please lets get everyone playing on the same game.
Anyone else got anything?[/QUOTE]
This is the most boring and mediocre special edition idea I have ever seen. The exclusiv stuff is the only stuff is fun.
I’m honoured you joined just to point that out. Perhaps you’d want to expand on what exactly you mean by “exclusive stuff”.
My personal take on digital bonuses is that they’re rarely used more than once. My lovely Bonus Golden Guns in RDR were quickly tucked into my inventory when more powerful weapons came along. And I’ve yet to see anyone impressed because I have a preorder L4D2 baseball bat. 
Now I might be swayed by a full body tapir costume for Brink but other than that I’d like to stick to physical objects and other things you can enjoy outside of the game, collectables if you want to give them a name. 
SockDog, yes to above, and
Hey, like the Castle Crasher figures, some of this stuff is just simply too expensive. If it is game promotion, it should be regular retail prices at most. Dang, those Special Infected plushies are awesome, but way, WAY too rich for my blood. :mad:
An air-soft replica of the Warthog handgun (or any other weapon) present in Brink
… signed by the developers.
or… a sculpture made by Tully (related to Brink… or not) 
… Resistance / Security Flag
Resistance/security themed handgun, like a 9mm or something. With the barrel drilled out so it doesn’t leave any identifiable marks on the bullets. So then we can play “REAL life BRINK” lolz 
Just sort of came to me in another thread but I thought I’d put it here for completion’s sake.
How about a very high-res texture pack for the PC collectors edition. I’m not talking about restricting this from other players to install, but getting 20-30-50gig of textures on some DVDs is going to be a lot sweeter than downloading them.
Dead Rising 2: High Stakes Edition
The poker chips and the cards are cool. That is the kind of thing I like. Something I will use in my life AFK.
P.S. Climbing our local mountain the other day, my boys came across an いのしし. :stroggtapir: It was so big, my youngest mistakenly thought it was a donkey lol (hasn’t seen many farm animals). Next time I will be sure they take their cameras.
SD. Come on guys, can someone slap up Bethesda to see if they’re going to do a collectors edition or are the pre-order packs all we’re getting?
People should not have to buy an expensive version of a game to get all the items.
Come on now, we’re not living in a communist dominated society all over the world. Not all should be equal, can’t we have some exclusivity? 
this should be in for sure ->

pfff… all the preorder stuff should be in the collectors edition and more. Like extra skins that you can dress up as a Strogg warrior for The Resistance or a GDF soldier for The Security 
The other stuff in this threat also sounds great
