    Since it's not out until November, few sites have it up. I suspect that it will be cheaper than €90 in most places, since prices have dropped so much. Play are a bit too expensive this time!

    Ah yes. another overhyped title trying to hoodwink fatwallet gamers in with gimmicky special edition preorder shyte.

    Nothing wrong with buying a title 6 months or more after release. The good games will keep their multiplayer communities long after they are released. And the single player games? Well you really just have no excuse :p they'll always be the same whether you pay 90 euros or 9 euros.

    Yeah but remember how the Zero Punctuation guy bought the collectors edition of Mirrors Edge?

    You will feel the exact same way.

    intriguing.

    But if the game goes sour those extras will be on ebay faster than you can say Fail.

    Play.com have exclusivity on the collectors edition, so you'll probably struggle to get it anywhere else other than ebay after it comes out.

    (Unless it's region free, you may be able to pick up a copy from the states)

    The question that begs to be answered is: Do you really want to hedge your bets with 90E on a sequel to one of the biggest let downs of the current game generations?

    Might have been a let down for you but it wasn't for me, and a good few of my friends feel the same.

    After Crackdown and portal, assassins creed is the best game i've played on the 360.

    TBH, I LOVED running around like a headless chicken, and the jumping from mad heights. Climbing to the top of that atherdal in Acre was one of my most memorable gaming experiences.

    Was far from brilliant, but I'll definately be getting the sequel.

    Likewise, loved the original, though it was flawed in some places. :)

    And just climbed that cathedral again yesterday as part of playthrough #3 :D

    I enjoyed the original, it was just so repetitive, between the samey missions and re-used voice samples. "Coorse the Christian King and his army of infidels..". I intend to play through it again though, to get the last few achievements.

    I have the figure from the first CE, this one looks even better. I'd also like the soundtrack and bonus in-game missions.
