Titanfall CE statue gets its own reveal trailer
Titanfall's Collector's Edition comes with a rather large statue, and a new trailer focuses on the item.
Titanfall's collector's edition is a whopping $250, and for the price you get an art book, schematic poster, and a statue. To justify the price, that must be one hell of a statue. A new reveal trailer from Respawn lead artist Joel Emslie walks you through the features (of a statue, remember) to convince you of just that.
The roughly torso-sized statue is now almost 20", not 18" as originally outlined. That allows them to have detailed soldiers at the feet of the statue to show the scale of the Titan. It even includes little lights that can switch from blue to red to show whether it's friendly or hostile. And of course, as a Collector's Edition, it's individually numbered.

ugh, fucking WANT!
i don't think i like the dude on top of it though. kind of distracting from the awesomeness. -
I want it so bad...it just so expensive. Especially following up on a console launch.

I have a problem. Watching this damn video made me order it (yes MADE). I hope $250 wont become the norm for special/collectors/limited editions. My brain knows that most people won't spend the $250 and it's likely that I would be able to get one cheaper later on but........... Shut up brain!

Okay, so let me get this straight...I am going to be a Debbie Downer here
Let's say that Titanfall is the next generation's Halo (Xbox) or Call of Duty (Xbox 360) and the game is amazing to the point where I am going to play it straight for the next 6 years or more. I can purchase a regular copy for ~$60.00 to play and have a good time for the next 6 years. OR I can purchase a CE copy for ~$250.00 to play have a good time 6 years while flip through my art book once, load the 3xAAA batteries one time into my statue, and if you are unlike me and have friends you could show off with all of these cool items. Great!
Fast forward four months after receiving the game. I am still playing this awesome game, and the updates and patches make it awesome! Where is my art book you may ask? Well I didn't feel like having it laying around and cluttering up my desk, so I put it in the closet to collect dust so when that ONE day comes where I get the urge to flip through it again I will have it...Hint, hint, that day will never come. Okay, okay, art books are cool at first, but what about the awesome light up statue? Well, the batteries ran out and I didn't feel like spending money on more batteries or bothering to change them so now it is just a statue that I put on display because it's still pretty awesome. Poster? Eh, my ferrets destroyed it.
It all comes down to I am still enjoy the same experience as the guy who purchased the same game for ~$110.00 more than me. That same guy receives no more experience than I did just because he has these items to view.
I apologize for any misspellings or grammar errors, I typed this at the end of my shift at work and do not have time to proof read. This is simply my opinion, and if you don't like it GREAT! voice yours and we'll discus.-

Long story short, why spend ~$250.00 on a game you can get for ~$60.00, and you still get all of the content and patches? I understand this is a material world (Madonna), but I think it's outrageous how expensive CE's are getting.
DLC's I get, here's $10.00 now may I have more weapons, maps, and other cool content to make the game better.-
See, I like CE's. I like the little display statues and other paraphenalia, as I do tend to display these things. The art books I'm not as fussed about (and on PC I'm content with them to be in digital format), but there's a point where even I stop and go "nope, too expensive". We already pay about $100 AUD for a new game here, chucking an extra $150 or more on top pushes me into the realm of nope. I can maybe see myself going the extra $50 or so, but that's about it these days.

Yeah, I had that same moment of revelation a few years back when I was thinking about moving again and I realize I had all this shit from CEs over the years that I'd look at once, and then it was just another thing to sit in my house and take up space.
