To Sheep or not to Sheep

James Reynolds | November 5, 2008

I’m faced with a quandry at the moment – I haven’t preordered my Wrath of the Lich King. 

If i’m honest, i’m in no rush because I don’t want to play it until my new PC comes back (if… it comes back) so that gives me some room to breathe. The question is, do I buy the Collectors ed?

I vowed I would never buy another over priced collectors edition based on the pretty packaging becaus Bungie, EA, etc all gouge £10-20-$$$$$$ out of you for something crap + a pretty box.

But Blizzard have a good track record for collectors editions and i’ve always regretted not picking them up for previous games, so just to list it out:

Standard Retail Game: £18

Collectors Edition: £50

  • Art Book
  •  In-game Pet (Baby Frost Wyrm)
  • Behind-the-Scenes DVD (hours of interviews)
  • Music CD with over 20 tracks
  • Northrend Mousepad
  • Two trading card decks

Thats a steep price increase, but a substantial collectors edition package – so advice?

Regards,
JamesR.

    if you think that the soundtrack could possible cost you up to £15 and the art book would be similarly priced

    and then you include not one but two Starter Decks which can go for £12.50 each :)

    then it’s not actually a bad price considering what you get, also it has a pet :P
