In all the arguing about comparing which game's CEs had what, there's one crucial point that hasn't been touched upon: Regardless of what version you buy, the game itself will still exist two years from now. Re: SWTOR "Remember, remember - Kakk says 'December.'" |

CE isn't worth it, IMHO. I may get the Digital Deluxe... or just the standard then upgrade to the digital deluxe if they offer it (seems like most MMOs offer it eventually) |

I'm not a fan of head start incentives or Collectors Editions. It's overpriced as well. I'll almost certainly wait a few months after release and wait for a bargain price. |

Just to clear up some confusion Physical Editions:
Digital Editions:
Pre Purchase: 3 Day Headstart Pre Order: 1 Day Headstart
Golem Banker: Same Idea as http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Mercantile_Summoning_Stone Mystfire Wolf Spell: Same idea as http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Igneous_Summoning_Stone Chalice of Glory: Glory is the currency used for Structured PvP, and is used for cosmetic gear.

Originally posted by Unlight And yet people end up paying more in cash shops in F2P and B2P models. You are right perspective is a great thing since gaming habits are not the same for everyone. But i think you are making a big deal out of monthly sub; believe it or not but people are not that stingy with 12 to 15 bucks a month which is just a pocket change. if it was WOW wouldn't have the sub numbers it has today. People just want a good and fun game to play. Unless someone is still living on allowance or social aid i can understand that monthly sub is a big deal. |

Even I understand that for some people 150€ is too much for a game (for me too), I don't understand the comparison to the old republic CE when SWtOR has a monthly subscription additionaly. GW2 is B2P after all and if it turns out to be at least as good as GW 1 is, it would be like paying 150€ for a 5 years gametime which in my opinion is more than a fair deal and cheap in the long run when you compare the prices of 120€ + for PS3 or XBox games with like 20 - 50 hours gameplay max or even offline PC games like Shogun total war as example. Other than that it's not the only edition they are offering so if its too pricey for you just pick up one of the cheaper editions like I will do. |

I have a question, IF I were to buy the CE from Gamestop/EBGames and paid it in Full! Would I get a prepurchase code to play 3 day headstart or since I did not buy online, I only get 1 day only? If i do get 3 days from retailer, does it have the same effect for the standard edition? Prophets |

As long as you pay the full amount, you will get the 3 days. Which retailers offer which versions has yet to be determined. |

I would have totally bought the CE, but then I saw the digital items and was like, "what the hell?!" Three of the 5 digital items aren't even permenant items, and that's just such a huge turn off for me. I do really want the soundtrack though. I bet that would be amazing to listen to. Smile |

Digital Deluxe x2
Thank you for not requiring us to kill more trees and get a physical box to have the digital items. |

The Skyrim collectors edition was that high and it wasn't even as good as this one. |

I feel the CE is a little high, but I get that i dont "have" to buy it. However, for the price I would like to see something al ittle different. What I am more interested in is the DE, but the limited day usage on the digial items is kinda lame. There needs to be more permanent items involved. |

I just can't resist, I have to get this. There is NO game I want to play more ever since I started learning about this game over a year ago. And the sooner the better for me. So of corse the early access is the big selling point for myself. But even still, this is one of the best collectors editions I have ever seen. Only things I wish were included would be an offical GW2 T-shirt and a making of DVD. |
