Got my Gamestop shipping notification.

I just got back from finishing up paying off my PS3 collector's edition.

How's the replay value? Alternate endings?

Wow, look at the Giant Bomb review. Is it really THIS good?

Its a good romp. I would say its more of an interactive novel than anything else while giving the illusion that your choices have consequences.

Is it a game? I guess, but very light at that.

It is if you liked Heavy Rain. Which I loved. If not, be prepared for story/character development rather than actual gameplay.

While a store exclusive CE, especially on a hot IP has a good chance of not dropping in price, that doesn't mean it can't happen, especially on something like this where the content itself is only slightly different from the regular retail product. I personally think the popularity of the series and numerical limit on how many were produced will keep this at MSRP or above, but I also don't see this as something collectors are going to seek out down the road.

The regular DOA5 got a price drop, but the CE hasn't

Yes.
It also won Spike TV's VGA's Game of the Year.

If anyone spots an unboxing video, could you post a link here? I don't want to open mine, but I'd like to see the stuff.

Any reason why the regular version is already showing as out of stock for Amazon and Newegg?

This wasn't a limited release game, right?

So did Madden NFL 2004 in 2003.


Pre-orders got pulled on amazon within the last 48 hours as I was thinking about it with the facebook $5 dollar promo. (vaniillna version)

I think they just didn't anticipate the demand for it. It wasn't being sold by Amazon last night, but the PS3 version is back again. It's still in stock at GameStop also (regular versions). You can also buy it on BestBuy.com and they have it listed as a limited edition, although I'm fairly sure it just comes with a poster or something.

So I have this pre-ordered for 360 at gamestop, but I don't think I really want it. Do you guys think I should not pick it up, or should I pick it up and resell?

if you decide to pick it up and sell it shoot me a PM, I missed out on the pre order.

The best buy near me said they are only getting 5 copies. I wonder if stores or the publisher really underestimated the demand of the vanilla version.

This game was my GOTY for 2012.

i think so, its a niche product. Plus, a majority of people who were interested got the season pass. I can see it never being reprinted, since its much cheaper to buy the season pass.

I really regret not going ahead and pre-ordering the CE. :/

Most of the Best Buys around me have the game available for in store pickup but it's no longer available for shipping.
