cgvince Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I'll be honest I'll probably not bother buying the collectors edition, mainly because I just want to play the game, I don't want a SnapBack or any of the other stuff, ALTHOUGH the in game stuff is pretty sweet !, but I reckon it will be released as dlc at a later date Anyway this seems like the UK price, what are your thoughts ? http://www.shopto.net/product/search?view=...3GR19%2CXB2GR19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was £80 for collector's edition, then yea it's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlingShotUK Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I couldn't wait to hear if there was going to be a special edition but £119!? That really is ridiculous. The GTA IV Special Edition which seems better than this - excluding in game bonuses (which I'm not a fan of) - was £60. I'm a GTA collector so am used to spending a lot on pieces of GTA memorabilia but £119 really does seem too high. It's more than the GTA 3 Claude figure...

d3ex2 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 That is exactly what I expected it would cost £120 (exc. P&P). The currency conversion put it at £100 and I don't think it's worth even that for a case, bag, hat, online characters and a bonus car/bike/garage. Special edition it is for me.

Wheatley Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I would wait a bit because I got the Max Payne 3 Collectors Edition for £64.99 on Gamestop UK's site a couple of days before release. I would advise others to do the same because you'll definitely get it cheaper someplace else but stay away from Tesco Entertainment if you know what's good for you. -Wheatley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiglet Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 So probably €120. f*ck that sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apex. Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Damnit, I really wanted this as well. Mainly because I wanted that Los Santos snapback, but let's be honest it would just end up collecting dust, who'd really go outside wearing a Snapback from a game? I'll just get the special edition.

Liberty2k7 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Maybe Rockstar are thinking about a GOTY edition later on (inevitable) where they will add all of the exclusive content into the full game, sort of a complete collection. I'm still not sure what to make of the exclusive stuff, its not like rockstar to keep content from the basic version of the game, but there will be so much in the game it won't really matter. Im just going to get the special edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalek Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Eye wateringly expensive. A direct conversion from the US price should make it about £100. Disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solofme Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 So probably €120. f*ck that sh*t. Probably 140-150 euros, so yea even worse haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3ex2 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I could honestly live without all the stuff from the special edition if I knew it would be released later on. I think it might be. Need to wait until I see a price for the UK. I don't know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutoDriver Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Jebus! That really is to expensive for what comes down to a cap and bag I will never be seen dead in/with. I'll get the special edition and hope the garage bit comes in a DLC later down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haarp Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 This is the perfect price. It keeps the edition unique as all the poor people can't afford it, but those of us who have good jobs can buy it no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apex. Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 If they would of maybe put an in-game brand name on the bag then maybe I would buy it, who in their right mind would walk around with a bag with a big GTA V logo on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? 119,- is pretty much affordable by everyone, the question is do I want to pay 119 pounds for a game with extras. If you work for minimum wage, say £700 per month, this edition will cost you over 1/7th of your monthly income. No, it's not affordable for everyone.

Don't get me wrong I'm very fortunate financially, but I am also very strict when it comes to purchasing products that are too expensive for what's included and what it is worth, like this edition. I rather spend that money wisely i.e invest, than trow it in the bin like I would be doing with this. For that same exact reason I also will refrain from purchasing next gen consoles. – overeducated wonk who fetishises compromise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
