wOOps just posted this on the official Sh4 forum.

SH4 Collectors Edition onsale at Gogamer for $34.90 (48hr sale) ! LINKY (http://www.gogamer.com/Silent-Hunter-4--Wolves-of-the-Pacific-Collector-s-Edition-DVD-Rom--I--PC-Games_stcVVproductId11744278VVcatId444758VVviewpro d.htm) http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif


I would have stood in line to buy it, if it had not cost $150 US to get. Now, I've got 2 copies of the game. I can't justify spending more on it. $100 is enough. I'm afraid they lost a lot of their market, who would have loved to get this.

Knowing this just irritates me. I am not happy with Ubisoft. I really would have liked to get this. I do not understand.

I would have stood in line to buy it, if it had not cost $150 US to get. I don't believe the Collectors Edition was ever $150.00 USD to aquire. I think you may be confusing the Collectors Edition in your link for the Deluxe Edition?

[ElAurens]

As I told my fellow BlitzPigs on our forum, I will never, ever pre order a game again. Especially a UBI title.

Wait a week or 2 and find it in the bargian bin.

You mean this is one I was supposed to get? The version I bought at GameStop, and the one that came from Amazon were just the plastic box with SS-298's picture and zeros on the cover. There was no recognition manual or leather looking box? I thought all initial US release versions were the same with the same bonus materials?

Let me clarify this. Are there THREE versions of SH IV?
Standard, DeLuxe Edition and Collector's Edition? Or just two?

Whatever is the case, I need a URL for the edition with the maximum extras if anybody has one please?

[Hans Schultz]

man i would have waited, i'd would have rather paid $35 to beta test rather than $50.

[Iron Budokan]

Yup, I would have rather saved $15 myself. Oh, well, I'm still glad I got it, please don't misunderstand me. But it would've been nice to save fifteen smackers.

To buy the Deluxe edition from UK would cost about 134 USD with shipping to USA.

They wanted pound sterling, which is about twice the USD. Vey expensive exchange rate.

I thought what ****** was only selling is the Limited Edition for USA. It has a Map, Wall Poster for ships only, DVD movie, 100 page manual.

I wanted the fold out recon manual EU got with spiral binder.

Edit: Wow, that is the Collector's Edition EU got! It is the Import version. Sweet buy for a new Kaleun! Good head's up on that deal.

Edit2: Board forum etiquiette rules. No posting to external game link buy sites.

Deluxe Edition (http://shop.ubi.com/SH4/UK/).

Doh! I could have saved $15! I bought the Amazon US version linked from the Subsim sticky though so it's all good :D

From that picture of the collector's edition (from Jungman's amazon link), the recognition manual still only shows the ships in isometric. Did that annoy anyone else? Iso views just seem out of place in a historical game's setting. I would still have liked to have got the spiral bound recognition manual though.

If you havent got Sh4 yet that gogamer deal is awesome!

[Camaero]

Damn... I was going to wait a little while to get this game cause money is tight, but I picked it up for that price. Can't wait! Thanks for the link!:rock:

Many Thanks - ordered.

[Jungman]

Wow guys. I was reading about the forum rules and it says really wish you would buy from Subsim.com to support us, this forum.

Thus it is not quite right for us to point to external game links for sales. I edit my post.

[Sailor Steve]

Or, you can get it where you can and then donate the difference.

[theghost]

ordered...many thanks!

[Deep6]

Thanks, saved money and got a better version than the local software stores.

[supposedtobeworking]

damn all out of stock--thanks for the link anyways it was worth a shot...

[Grunt]

I preordered the game, just as I did with SH3, expecting a great game. Big mistake!

SH4 is, as another poster stated, headed for the bargain bin as it is unlikely the countless bugs will ever be fixed.
