OK, addendum: Blizzard CE's for full releases lol.

Hm, I was actually expecting more than 99dollars. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Soul Calibur V cover art case looks really good (like a book :P). Part 4 art cover case was pretty sick, but the goodies inside was a disappointment to me.

How many $100 Blizzard CEs have there been? One?

Original WoW and WC3 are the other two coming to mind.

Both were $79.99 as well, I believe.

Edit: Did some digging.
WoW was $79.99.
According to various forum posts from 2002, WarCraft III CE was also $79.99.

Edit 2: Honestly, I'm not trying to be an ass here. I was thinking my memory was fading, thinking StarCraft II was their only CE to be $100, so I had to make sure myself.

That Soul Calibur V CE looks amazing... Definitely getting that.

Put in my pre-order for Diablo 3 CE. Can't freaking wait! Thanks for the heads up about Amazon offering it.

I agree 100%. Getting the SCV CE, though. I'm a sucker for CE's and especially ones that look like books.

Ouch on the $99.99 Diablo III but i'll most likely be opening it up on release day. IF it ever comes.

Are the PC and Mac versions of Diablo 3 in the same box, or are they sold separately?

If its anything like every other Blizzard product, same box.

EDIT - I've got to wait and see regarding Diablo 3. This computer might have some difficulty and if there's going to be a console port, (blasphemy I know) I'd rather get that. Diablo 3 on Wii U, with the big tablet for managing inventory could be a system-seller for me.

Bioware put out this "unboxing" video for The Old Republic:

The only thing with Diablo is that it isn't Torclight, Sacred, or anything else that was released on consoles. Nightmare/Inferno difficulty is gonna kick the shit out of you and unless they tune the difficulty on consoles to be different than that of PC, it's not gonna be a fun experience gaming on with a controller.

There's also the issue of MS not opening up XBL to accommodate BNet (ala the absence of Steamworks) and the constant patching. But I would like trophies!

I just came. Can't wait for mine to ship!

Let's hope the Diablo III CE ends up being $25 on clearance at Target like the SC2 CE was.

FF xiii-2 has two euro editions coming out. News all over the web about it, but I just found this, at a current exchange rate of $64. Game.co.uk is exclusively offering a steelbook case and some frivolous DLC basically for just preordering. I won't be getting it, but figured someone here might, steelbook is a nice bonus. Don't know shipping charges.

Wish we got these kinds of deals

I don't know if this has been posted or not, but bargain hunters should beware that the codes for the DLC in both the Killzone 3 and AC: Brotherhood CE no longer work. The Killzone 3 code expired and Sony only extended it one month and that ran out end of September. Also Ubisoft took out the option in the in-game options to redeem their codes for Brotherhood, so that code is worthless as well.

So only buy those if you want the physical items.

Don't quote me on this but I rushed to see if my Brotherhood CE DLC would still unlock content and it notified me 3 pieces were unlocked including two Templar Maps? and the officer outfit.

I'm going to try the Killzone 3 stuff tomorrow but honestly was less concerned with it based one what was included.

Regardless, thanks for bringing this kind of thing to my attention.
