im suprised there isnt a thread like this already... My idea for a collectors edition would have the game (of course) an artbook,poster,dlc and some sort of brink toy.
whats are your ideas for a collectors edition?

Artbook would be nice, I understand they made a LOT of concept art to get the whole customization thing down.

Exclusive in-game content would make me snap it up without thinking twice, or if it at least included all 4 pre-order packs. Guns would be nice, but just having exclusive customization would be neat.

A making-of DVD would be neat, considering how much effort they seem to be putting into the game. Hearing about all the different stages of development for different parts of the game. I'm curious about the 5 or so stages of prototype that SMART went through, and what the problems were with each of them, and how they were fixed.

Just putting it in an interesting (and sturdy) box would be cool, so I could put it on a shelf instead of in a drawer. Once upon a time I bought Splinter Cell collectors edition for my old Xbox, and it came in a really nice metal box. All of the writing was on a plastic sheath, so if you got rid of it, the metal case was very minimalist and quite good looking, it had nothing but the 3 dots of light from Sam's goggles on the front.

If they have composed unique music for the game, they could include a soundtrack CD.

Toys or props from the game are hard to pull off well, they tend to either look cheap, or increase the cost by too much. If there's something small and iconic from the game that can be made well, it can be a nice addition, such as the poker chips from FO:NV. They were made well and had a nice feel to them, they weren't just cheap molded plastic.

If they do make a collector's edition though, they should make two, one themed for each faction, even if it just has a different box.

A unique character story from each developer from SD, just to see their view of the story and conflict at hand.

Some exclusive cosmetics would be nice, as long as it wasn't something gameplay-changing like exclusive guns.

Honestly this game looks like something that I've been waiting and hoping for.. I would love for them to give out T-shirts or something. Even if it just had the logo for the game. Props to the creators, would have been an epic one to work on.

A Tapir hat, gotta be tapirs in a collectors edition.

I would like a nicely designed, exclusive case of some kind. Perhaps a miniature version of some item in the game with all the contents inside. Next, edition exclusive content of some type. Then, a collectible or two.

If you had visited some convention they were attending, you would probably have gotten one.


Omagawsh, teh Tapir joke is comming!

A reversible Security/Resistance t-[censored] would be cool, and a little ark tower model..

I like the reversible idea, but I'm not sure I have ever seen a reversible t-shirt. They would have to make it double layered or something to hide the seams.

Just have the seams showing for resistance like the in game clothes, thats what i was thinking.

As I have said before... 'Jah lick them with thunda' paperweight and Anger dartboard.

Limited Edition Brink:

- New Bonus Pack giving items to both factions (2 tattoos, 2 shirts, 2 weapon skins, 2 headgears)
- Art Book
- The Making of Brink Disc (Developer Diaries, and some extra content)
- A Grenade Keychain/Paperweight/Trophy from the cinematic trailer (Wraith's idea)
- A code making all future DLC free of charge
- The Game

That would be something, yeah?

Funny you mention that the game should be included. I thought that was something really obvious.

I will say again "Jah Lick them with Thunder" grenade shell paper weight.

Hey I suggested that!

I agree with you I have had this feeling that like this seems to be the FPS game ive always been waiting for!

I'd be all for a t-shirt of some kind... I mean, a "free" shirt convinced me to buy Darkwatch... little did I know that the cost of the shirt would be paid for by the mental flogging of actually playing Darkwatch.

Or they could make some propaganda posters which we could hang on our walls or post around our varied locales as extra advertisemant. >.> Course they can't be too nice or everyone will just want to keep them.

wait, the game would come with the collectors edition? Thats Odd! :liplick:

Well, there's no evidence to say that there could be, its just that SD has been very careful to avoid saying their isn't, and in some interviews, sometimes a dev will say something along the lines of "this would be cool to put into a collectors edition if we have one"

We'll probably see a collector's edition for Brink 2: The Flood

I think he was referring to this:


;)

I hope there is a good collectors edition. So far I haven't seen any bonuses for the game from game.co.uk

;)

I totally misread his post >.>

I thought he meant "the game could release with a collectors edition?"

But anyway...I JUST LOST THE GAME :banghead:
