It's great to see the company responding in such a forthright manner (although an odd line explains that the torso figurine "was cut up like many of our fans had done to the undead enemies in the original Dead Island"), but it's hard not to raise an eyebrow at how it was that this went from concept to promotion without anyone at the company pausing to query if it was an entirely brilliant idea. "For now, we want to reiterate to the community, fans and industry how deeply sorry we are, and that we are committed to making sure this will never happen again."
However, their tone is remarkably contrite. Deep Silver told Poly that they are now "collecting feedback from the Dead Island community, as well as the international gaming community at large, for ongoing internal meetings with Deep Silver's entire international team today." Whether this means the special edition will be pulled remains to be seen. Since the internet became aflame with the discussion, the publishers told Polygon, "We sincerely regret this choice." A leaked picture of the Dead Space 2 Collector’s Edition, briefly spotted on Amazon, shows that gamers will have something else to add to their artificial arsenal. As we reported earlier this afternoon, the EU special edition of the game features a remarkably offensive statuette of a headless and armless bikinied figure, streaked in gore. I hate it when they do that, as i'm an average Medium size - Not that I would ruin the CE by wearing it, but it's still nice to have one in my size if ever I did want to! The first rule of CE's is FUNCTIONALITY, and a Large T is certainly not functional to a collector of smaller build.Deep Silver, in response to an enquiry from Polygon, have issued an apology for the Dead Island Riptide: Zombie Bait Edition. Good luck with your purchases and I hope they won't overproduce it (hint: Killzone 3 LE).ĭid any of you guys get an option to choose a T-shirt size? I didn't.ĭid I miss something in German which I should've checked? Or are we to assume that this will be a "One size - Large" offer? Personally, I liked that Dead Island trailer, but since I have no way of knowing what the game will be like, I won't shell out ~90EUR for something I don't know a thing about.īut.like I said, I do believe this will be very valuable later (resale, etc.). Sweet looking thing, but I believe this one is for you "keep it sealed" collectors. I also like how they have taken the time to include an English translation on their webpage as well!Įnded up costing me €98.59 which translates into around £86.15 As I had ordered from them previously, ordering was a lot less hassle than the last time as all my details were already stored, so it was simply a case of clicking the next button a few times and entering my PayPal details when prompted. Ok, so I changed my mind and pre-ordered, as I don't want to miss the bus on this one.
Like the rest of you, I really want to see what other items are going to be included before committing myself, and I also want to see how many these are limited to
I think I paid via PayPal for the Sniper: Ghost Warrior CE, so I may use that method again and hope that they don't take the payment instantly If you are from outside Europe you have to pay with paypal otherwise I would recommended to do a bank transfer. The other option of payment, does not ask for any card details but its saying that I have placed an order and need to do a bank transfer, seems Paypal might be easier for International buyers?!
