you get absolutely nothing worth it. i wouldnt pay an extra 5 bucks for the stuff that comes with the collectors edition. unless you're one of those people that listens to video game music and has like anime posters on their wall, what is the point of this? if you really want to see characters dance, get britney spears' dance beat or something like that. i'm so glad i didnt wait for the CE and miss out on my chance to get the preorder box.

Some people like it, others don't. You don't see people who buy the collector's edition going, "Regular edition is such a rip... You get so much less then the Collector's Edition"

I like dancing, it makes me feel good.

When I buy CE I like to think I am supporting anets ideas. The only reason I would not CE, if they killed my favrite class or the kill the way I like to play the game.

I do think the dance is kinda lame

I really just want the music :/

I didn't get the GW CE and now I kick myself because I wanted the music off that too.

Thing is, its THEIR MONEY not yours, they wanna spend a bit more for a game they enjoy LET THEM. I wanted to, until EBGames let me down.

I thought you could get the Regular or CE with the "downpayment"?

Anyway, screw EB Games. I went and bought the pre-order at Best Buy instead yesterday.

And I plan on getting the CE. I want the art book, the mouse pad, etc.

I really wanted the Ritualist Cloth, too (bloody Euros!)

The dances are a nice bonus... although I probably won't even be making an Assassin!

Mister_Smiley · Mar 13, 2006, 04:20 PM // 16:20

I still plain to get the CE for factions, not to mention since i do plain on makeing an assassin, the backup dancers would be nice lol.

Crud is EB games bad for pre-orders?? I preordered normal factions there on my birthday a few days ago, they said they didn't have pre-order boxes and I asked if I would get them on release date.

Jenosavel · Mar 13, 2006, 04:30 PM // 16:30

If you need a new mouse-pad anyway, are prone to leaving GW up at the login screen for its music, and are enamored with the fluid, life-like motion of the current classes' dances (okay, I'm an animator, give me a break)... how is the CE a waste of money?

As the leader of the OverClocked Remix guild, I take full offense to that.

I think so... I got sick of waiting around when Best Buy had them.

And they couldn't give me any info on when to expect it...

Then I read a thread where someone had waited for EB Games to get the pre-order boxes, and only 4 came in (and he was 5 on the list!). By that time, the other pre-orders from other stores were gone. I didn't want that to happen to me, so I went and bought the pre-order yesterday.

Did have a gift card to Ebgames had to spend it on something.

Da Deathblade · Mar 13, 2006, 06:02 PM // 18:02

I agree the CE is a waste of money

I agree with this. To some people they may really like and want what comes in CE, and if they do, Then its not a waste of money to them.

but is it the biggest waste of money ever as the OP says?

anti_z3r0 · Mar 13, 2006, 06:20 PM // 18:20

Whoever heard of supporting a company that you really like?

P.S. I'm sure ebaying an xbox360 for $3,000 is the biggest waste of money ever. Or how about those Tickle Me Elmos that were going for thousands of dollars?

Markaedw · Mar 13, 2006, 06:22 PM // 18:22

I got the CE, and I feel that it is not a waste, well sort of, I not sure that I will like the ritualist, so the dance emote isn't going to do anything for me and I will get an assassin, but I doubt that he/she will go beyond Catha, the mouse pad, I will only use if it has a gel wrist pad (which I doubt) but the other stuff is cool, and I hate to look back and think "Man, I wish I had bought the CE!!" Basically, it is about prefferences.

I thought that the music is a stand alone sound track CD

DJ Josh · Mar 13, 2006, 06:22 PM // 18:22

waste of cash IMO,even though i could get the cloth pic(what ever that is).
but as i love to say "each to there own",and from all the posts i have seen(just on this forum)of people that have pre-ordered the CE,there are obviously many who like the list.
