from the look of it, the surivial edition is the one that is going to end up in the clearance bin for $30 or less. If preorder for the post-pandemic edition had really stopped. LOL

It's just not going to happen. Last Of Us. Steelbook. 170+ page hardcover full size artbook. For $20 more than the standard edition. Buy it while you can if you have any interest would be my advice.

Well just for you I hope you're right so you can get it for $30. I don't think it'll happen. At all. In fact if you find it for $30 show me a receipt and I'll pay you back for it so you get it free.

If I pre-order it online, do I still get charged $25 for the pre order?

you do realize i was talking about the surivial edition, right?

For those interested, I just called my buddy at Gamestop and he did say that the Pandemic Edition is still available to pre-order today in store , but he cannot guarantee after today since it is sold out online. So get it if you are on the fence as you can always cancel later as it will be the rarest copy of this game at any retailer including the UK and we also get the Survival DLC that is exclusive at Gamestop.

the deposit is $25 for it , right?

Yes. It is $25 in store and it is a much better investment as far as a downpayment on a rare item than those people that were dropping $20 on a COD BLOPS PS Vita bundle from a shady seller on eBay that was located in China on the "off" chance he came through. LOL

LOL, i saw the thread. the pics some1 posted was hiliarious. i got a good amount of gamestop store credit to use anyway.

Is the survival version going to be available at Amazon?

That was a pretty funny post. The same people that will get mad that you have to put down $25 on this very rare collectible edition that the reputable company Naughty Dog said will be extremely rare will not hesitate to give a crook in China $20 just to gamble with a .000001% chance of landing a PS Vita COD Bundle. If not, they will deal with eBay buyer protection for a few weeks. They have a better chance of running into Manti Te'o girlfriend than having that person deliver on the Vita.

This game looks to be a very strong candidate for GOTY and was one of the show stealers at E3. Naughty Dog is an amazing company and this could be the start of a brand new AAA franchise like Uncharted. If they said this was extremely limited, that is good enough for me. The pre-order was already sold out online and ND said it would ONLY be available in the U.S. and at Gamestop and extremely limited, so that screams rarity to me. I missed out on Dead Space Ultra Edition and the Kingdoms of Amalur Signature Edition and will never be able to get an Uncharted 2 Fortune Hunter's edition, but I am glad that I was able to get this edition.

It should be, but they haven't update their site yet.

Just came back from my GS and pre-ordered two copies of the Pandemic edition. The girl there didn't seem to have any trouble putting it through although none of the customers in the store actually knew there was a CE for this game since there was no promotional advertisement on site. And yes, I paid $25 per pre-order as a down payment.

Seriously considering pre-ordering the survival edition once best buy lists it. May be time for that unlocked membership, especially with new systems' games towards the end of the year.

Standard CE Thread Summary:

1. Post at retail price.
2. Someone says "not a deal."
3. Someone says it's too expensive.
4. Someone says they're all over it.
5. Someone says the additions are stupid and cheap.
6. Someone laughs about "collecting" video games.
7. Someone says they'll wait till it's $X on clearance.
8. Debate ensues of 'collectibility'/rarity of item and if it will ever be on clearance and there is generally a reference to a single instance of a CE version's price skyrocketing for X random game.
9. No one wins and CAG moves on to other deals, while people continue to a bump the thread needlessly in regards to the debate or things like shipping notifications, etc.

Side note: I am super pumped about this game.
