    Default Collector's Edition - Is it worth it?

    So, I have been thinking about buying the CE. What do y'all think? Is it worth it? I don't care about the WoW pet, and I own SC so I don't need the anthology. Really it's the artwork and behind the scenes, but with all this artwork being released, I fear a book full of things I've seen already. Any opinions?

    I was thinking the same thing, so I decided to just go ahead and preorder the damn thing before my cheapness takes the better of me.

    ;p

    I actually went to gamestop and asked if I can pre-order the CE and they said no, it was a limited thing. Strange. But if you can still get it and you already have SC 1 and don't have the need for a wow pet, I really don't think the soundtrack and flash drive are worth 40 bones.

    It said there was a backorder at Gamestop.ca. I'd rather the game on time than the CE later on, so I just reserved the normal game at EB.

    Personally, I'm not buying it. The only interesting item is the art book, and even that doesn't excite me that much. (Like you, I'm leery of the idea of buying in for a hard copy of artwork which has been floating around on the internet for ages.) For an example of a real collector's edition, see Halo: Reach.

    Only you can answer if it's worth it or not.

    To me it's not.

    It's definitely worth it. Even if you don't want the content itself, it'll fetch a pretty penny once they become rare. For proof of this all one needs to do is look at StarCraft, Diablo, or World Of WarCraft Collector's Editions. All of which go for between 500$-1000$ for brand new, sealed last I checked. StarCraft is a bit more with as much as 5000$ but that might've been a signed copy that I saw.



    Rest In Peace, Old Friend.

    Only if it had an extended manual....

    Since the SC2 manual is all recap with no new information. =/
