I have decided, reluctantly, after all the aghast comments and posts regarding the excessive cost, to rescind my offer to ship the Collectors Edition out to people in the USA/Canada.

I do hope that anyone lookng for a copy is able to source one (and cheaper than I could, with 4 day shipping).

Regards,
Kevin.

This makes me a bit sad too, I was seriously considering your offer. Maybe for the best though, I'm so ready for this game I'll probably just get the downloadable version on launch day. Anybody know if it's going to be released on Steam? I can only tolerate so many download services on my PC.

I get to checkout and it tells me they won't ship to my address. Clicking on "Help" then tells me that they'll only ship to Europe per the publisher's request.

Collectors edition is available in Australia so i don't think it's region dependable.Doesn't make a sense to make Collectors edition different for every region. btw it costs $108 AUD so Aussies get riped off again

Default same old story

The same old story is happening again. The E.U is getting the nice edition while we, in Canada/U.S.A are getting the extra documentary.

Why don`t UBI offer an Collector`s Edition with the extra documentary for everyone. I don`t get it.

I hope that someday, the North American will be able to get the same goodies.

Honestly, the best one so far as been the SH4 Collector`s Edition.

Welcome aboard Fragmate! Do you know what else the US version comes with? Is there a list somewhere?

This is no different from us europeans trying to buy pc games from amazon.com. Most of the time they won't ship to europe, and it makes me a sad panda because some games are just not available here anymore.
