i dont have anything against coll. edition, you get posters, some more infos, movies etc

BUT

Exclusive In-Game Content

o All new fire-breathing Dragon – on the battlefield, this impressive unit can only be controlled by players who purchase the Collector's Edition

o Special graphic treatment for "create-a-hero" units identify Collector's Edition gamers during on-line play

o Multiple exclusive maps including signature locations from The Lord of the Rings films – such as Weathertop and Argonath

you pay more and get more in game content, i cant accept that!
if it would be a small thing like in WoW where you get a little pet OK but this is too much imo

and i wonder how it will work in multiplayer mode, would be unfair if someone can control this dragon and the other player cant! but i think they wont be THAT stupid to do that
well its EA...

---------

but . . . , i think im going to get the coll. edition :p

Can't be sure if the last one released early last year harbored as many good reviews as this one..and it still is on my short list of games to get...but this game is garnishing some rave critical reviews.... worth taking a look at LOL

It seems to be a sign of the times, as in the previosu case of NFS:MW Black Edition

Fortunatley, in the case Most Wanted, it was possible to "open" the "Black Edition" content on the standard release, it'll probably be the same with BfME2
