Dead Island: GOTY Edition?

[barrit]

I got an email from Play-Asia this morning that listed Dead Island: GOTY Edition. Has anyone heard anything about this? I wonder if it's going to be exclusive to Asia since that's the region the listing is in. I follow gaming news pretty closely, so I'm surprised I haven't heard of this.

Here's the PS3 listing:

It is probably for European / Asian market as Amazon France was the one that leaked it. It is probably the complete edition with all the DLC. Nothing new there since they do that oversees for most games with DLC. For ex, Assassins Creed: Revelations got an Ottoman edition that included all DLC 3 months after releaase of AC:R. However, calling this GOTY without the accolades of being GOTY is a stretch.

I thought there was like 2 pieces of DLC? Seems like a waste.

Looks like it was announced for the UK too. I wonder if it'll be released in the US also? I recently got Dead Island for $20 from GS, so I'm just wondering if I should wait til this GOTY drops and play this instead with all the DLC. My backlog is pretty large, so it wouldn't bother me to wait longer.

I thought a game had to be good to get a GOTY.
