Dark Souls 2
Fans of the Dark Souls series are some of the most hardcore, dedicated gamers out there, and come march 11th 2014 they'll get the chance to prove it, by putting their money where their mouths are. The Dark Souls 2 Collector's Edition will run you $120 and comes with a 12-inch tall Warrior Knight figurine, a hardbound art book, and a cloth map of the game world. If you pre-order the package you'll also get the Black Armor Edition, which comes in a steelbook case and includes the official soundtrack. Seems like a pretty standard price and spread for a pre-order collector's edition these days, and these bundles usually are pretty slick, but I have to ask myself...when did this obscure, hardcore little series go so mainstream like CoD and Assassin's Creed?
