No it wasn't for a special edition or anything it's just a pre-order bonus (And no, pre-ordering does not cost anything at all.. it just means I payed for the game early)
I don't see whats that funny about it though.. not a big deal
Maybe not a big deal. But it is funny. They release a game.
"Hey! Our game is going to be awesome! Not only should you buy it, you should PREORDER it! That's how awesome this [censored] is. You gotta have it! We'll even throw in a "special" weapons pack just for your preorder!"
Not only is the game busted to the point of wanting to throw our controllers through our TVs. The DLC, that was an extra reward, for reserving a copy of the broken game, is broken. That's funny.... To me at least.
