The bobble head and lunch box > 5 inch action figure.

The Matrix6415d ago

Fallout 3 CE is one of the worst I've seen in a long time. Oh yeah I want a lunchbox and a bobblehead! I'm still buying it though...$^#@ those limited editions they get me every time. And I'm getting Resistance CE...you know they make limited editions which cost about $3 for all the bonus content and then up the price by $20 and it still works. At least on me anyways.

morganfell6415d ago (Edited 6415d ago )

Anyone spot why this article is biased? Look at these comments.

* Vault Boy Bobblehead: Enjoy your very own Vault Boy with this collector’s item direct from Vault-Tec.

Now look at the R2 remark on a similar item.

* Exclusive 5 inch Chimera Hybrid action figure with Bullseye weapon.

The Bobblehead sounds great. Now let's turn those around.

*Exclusive 5 inch Bobblehead with base.

*Enjoy your very own Chimera Hybrid action figure with Bullseye weapon direct from the Invasion.

See what I mean? Now look again.

* The Art of Fallout 3: This hardcover book features nearly 100 pages of never-before seen concept art and commentary from Bethesda Game Studios artists.

Then R2

* Double-sided, hardbound Resistance art book covering a war-torn America from two unique perspectives.

Again, let's turn that around:

*Double-sided, hardbound Fallout art book covering a war-torn America from two unique perspectives.

*The Art of Resistance 2: This hardcover book features nearly 100 pages of never-before seen concept art and commentary from Insomniac Game Studios artists.

It's easy to make one package sound more attractive regardless of what it contains. I am not saying one package is actually better than the other. But they have done an injustice by providing bland descriptions of the R2 package.

thanks for the keen eye, here's a bubble for your thoughts!

if you pass on buying these 2 "collector's copies" you would have saved 1 third of the cost for another game. The only thing collector's editions are good for is collecting dust.

trancefreak6415d ago

I never would of observed that good find man.

SL1M DADDY6415d ago

I cannot see the point in owning a collectors edition of any game. Sorry, but I keep my gaming in the console, not on the console with some stupid bobble head or 5" action figure. To each their own I guess.

rhood0226415d ago

What's also funny is one of the items listed in the Fallout 3 CE is...

Fallout 3.

Here's the first bullet point:

The Fallout 3 Collector's Edition includes:

* Fallout 3: From the creators of the award-winning Oblivion comes one of the most realized game worlds ever created. Create any kind of character you want and explore the open wastes of post-apocalyptic Washington, D.C. Every minute is a fight for survival as you encounter Super Mutants, Ghouls, Raiders, and other dangers of the Wasteland. Prepare for the future.

I got a laugh out of that. Especially since there is no similar description for R2.

LONEWOLF2316415d ago

Good observation BUT does it really matter???
What matters most is the game itself EVEN though ill only be getting Fallout 3 since i only have the 360 BUT it is safe to say that Resistance 2 looks frigging awesome and that it looks WAY better than GEARS 2.

reincarnated6415d ago

thnx for explaining that ma dude, i already reserved the R2 collectors edition 2 weeks ago and im not regretting it.

mirroredderorrim6415d ago

*shoots self*

Fanboyism is not just limited to OSes and consoles anymore.. it's spilling over to action figures!

Haha!

TheUsedVersion6415d ago (Edited 6415d ago )

Actually I have to disagree and I wouldn't say the article is biased either. The info on the collector's edition of each game is copy & pasted from each game's respective page at GameStop. So I wouldn't say the site is necessarily biased just because they didn't rewrite the info.

Pretty crappy article though.

they love comparing donkeys with horses or lions with Hyenas!!

how can they even compare them since one is exclusive and the other is non and was built on another console first??

Resistance 2 wins by miles

Lanoire6415d ago

The only one Im not picking up? Gays at war 1.1
Gaming season has started yesterday for me when I picked up Dead space.

In the next two weeks Ill be getting.

dro6415d ago

DeZimatoR6415d ago

We have stepped into the realm of CE comparisons!

*Twilight Zone music kicks in*

pp6415d ago

Resistance 2 graphics are a laugh compared to most of the games coming out this year and i'm being really truthful i hope this is the last resistance we don't need a third (please).

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart129d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7129d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12130d ago (Edited 130d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989130d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_130d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg130d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher129d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1130d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76202d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8201d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac201d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage201d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro389d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
