I will be the first to admit that I don't buy the collector's edition of games very often. I suppose it is because I hardly ever get excited about the extra stuff that they include with the game.
Needless to say, when I found out that the Collector's edition of Dead Space 2 had release day shipping and a goddamn plasma cutter replica I was sold. I ponied up for the cash on Amazon and went to bed that night with visions of necromorph evisceration dancing in my head.
If you have ever opened a pair of socks on Christmas morning as a child you know how I felt today when I hastily unboxed my shiny new copy of Dead Space 2. Tearing into the package, noticing how small it was in real life, I could only think one thing.
Fuck.
Please bear in mind that this is not the review of Dead Space 2 the actual game. This is nothing more than me sharing my disappointment with you. I am including some photos of the unveiling so you can experience with me how it felt. I even included a Christmas tree to aid in your experience.
I feel swindled. It will be a long time before I shell out more than sixty dollars for another video game again. I can't help but already feel slighted by how some video game websites used their early release copies of the game that I've been dying to play for months.
Now, if you will excuse me, I need to actually go play the game.
