It has become common practice for publishers and developers to release special collector's edition variants for new game releases. These usually come with freebies, be they downloadable or actual physical products.

The more elaborate ones are usually reserved for the big guns like franchises with a built-in fanbase. Sometimes, companies take a gamble and release such variants for new IPs.

 

The Twisted Metal franchise, which is finally getting a new entry after six years (three if you count the PS2 port of Twisted Metal: Head On), falls into the first category. That alone makes it a prime candidate for a special edition.

 

The series' creator, David Jaffe, hopes it doesn't get one though.

I wonder why Jaffe doesn't want a CE. I'd buy it if it comes with a model of Sweet Tooth's truck.

If it was because of DLC then I would agree because is becoming common practice to strip gameplay from a game to make it Day 1 DLC (looking at you EA and CAPCOM). If it was about a physical item then I don't see why Jaffe should care that much.

Quoting Walo:

I agree with you. I like that there is one version of games that have everything and not several variants that is a hob-logged mess. Also I was thinking of picking up Marvel vs. Capcom 3 but realised that I was getting flashbacks of when I bought Street Fighter 4 and months later they came out with Super Street Fighter 4. It frustrates me how companies suck us dry of money so we could enjoy some good games and now all this stupid stuff that they do to devalue the games like making you pay extra to play online if you bought a used copy or locking the disc to one account only which also takes away the value. Sometimes I think the golden age of gaming is behind us when it was all about pop in the game and just play. Now when you pop in the game you have to make sure everything is updated, and extras paid for to get the full experience. :cry:

# no need for toyseromack718 2011-02-12 19:27
me as an aldult gamer i feel no need for collectors edition toys, i wont display them or play with them, so its a wast of money, as for dlc if the game is good and sells well yes people will ask for it but if the game doesnt sell dlc wont sell and no one will care for it like half the dlc released for crappy games out there...

# Jaffe WTF?Dark Collector 2011-02-12 20:31
I really love Jaffe's games but he is a way over the top head case when it comes to what he puts out. Why not put a collectors edition of twisted metal? Do you know how hard it is to get any kind of Twisted metal collectable swag? It's almost impossible, even on eBay. Jaffee buddy you need a shrink, give the fans that made you happy with a C.E. of Twisted Metal. :o
