I remember pre-ordering the Spider-Man collector's edition at best buy the day it was announced. Well, release day came and I didn't receive my order, then the next day I came to realize that they canceled my order...
@@ilovegames8287 I'm guessing it's exactly what purple angry zmurf said.

@@juneinblack damn bro. Sorry to hear that. I do see that collector's edition pop up from time to time on Amazon and gamestop from time to time. So if you keep checking im sure you can find it
I love how Jirard has grown up before my eyes to be assertive, confident and self loving. He’s the nicest person to also have an attitude of, “Hey this is my thing and if you don’t like it, that’s ok.”
@ganondorf66 So basically the US not only made a lot of tea undrinkable, even for American standards. But on top of that, they did this... wow, double slap square in the face. I'm sure this happens more and I wonder why Europe isn't good enough to receive certain editions.
And: - The Legend of Zelda (only seen in artwork) - The Adventure of Link - Link's Awakening - Four Swords (oly available in the anniversary edition) - Four Swords Adventures - The Minish Cap - Phantom Hourglass - Spirit Tracks - Tri Force Heroes ten of 19 main games don't have the Master Sword. It's a surprisingly rare item, to be honest.
For me the one collector's edition that I was so happy to get my hands on was Sonic Generations from 2011. It was packed of good stuff from a figurine of Modern and Classic Sonic, an art book, soundtrack from various Sonic games, a DVD on the creation of Sonic, and a metal gold plated ring on a blue velvet stand. It was well worth the money for me.
My favourite collectors edition is for Death Stranding. I absolutely LOVE the live size light up BB Pod. It's the coolest thing on my shelf. The briefcase is also very cool but the BB Pod stands out so much.
I don't have it myself, but Skyrim: Legendary Edition came with a statue of Alduin and a word wall, which the Alduin statue could sit on top of if you wanted it to. And of course, there's also the Halo 3 Limited Edition that came with the Master Chief helmet.
I got the day 1 collector's edition on 11/11/2011, lol. It didn't come with the wall, but it came with the Alduin and a really pretty concept art book. Very cool.
anything with a full sized art book or vinyl record is a go-to edition for me. both are uncommon, but Nintendo’s been doing pretty well with Switch CEs
And The Legend of Zelda (1) And Adventure of Link And Link's Awakening And Oracle of Seasons* And Oracle of Ages* And Minish Cap And Four Swords And Four Swords Anniversary Edition* And Four Swords Adventures And Phantom Hourglass And Spirit Tracks *The Master Sword found in these titles is not the real Master Sword, but another sword given similar power and/or not the "true" Master Sword.
Except he said 'A' master sword. I think he means less about THE Master Sword and more about a sword that acts as an end game sword/variant since Idk a Zelda game that doesn't have any form of upgrade to your sword. At least, that's how I interpreted it
“Dark Souls: The franchise that answers the question, ‘What if Franz Kafka took a crack at a Legend of Zelda game?’” Absolutely my favorite thing you’ve ever said!
I knew there was a reason I loved this guy, most of the collector’s editions for games on that wall are all games I have collector’s editions for. Great minds collect alike.
I remember walking into Gamestop, and heard the employee call up the Manager, with 2 PS4 GOW CE boxes in front of her, she called him up asking what to do with them because they were just found in the back- heard the Manager tell her put one aside for him- he claimed- she hangs up and I look at her staring at the extra, I said how much? "well the boss just took this one for free- and theirs no price- I'll sell it for $40" this was 2 months after release. walked out carrying that big box with a wide grin on my face
>Breath of the Wild Collectors Edition remains the highest priced collector's edition on this list Yeah, I believe it. As if Amiibo craze wasnt insane in its hayday, I remember BOTW selling out in MINUTES online. Nintendo collectors are a whole nother breed, I tell ya.
I really only spring on them for games I am already a superfan for or somehow get lucky and find one for cheap. I waited for almost 2 years for the Collectors Edition of God Of War (it has a couple less items than the stone mason version in the video) to go on clearance and I picked it up for about $40, the Kratos & Atreus statue made it absolutely worth that price. The main problem is really popular games you almost exclusively have to preorder as productions are usually quite low and resellers buy them up to make a profit since almost all sell out.
@D. Have you heard of Limited Run? Because their collectors editions are nowhere near the prices quoted here, and I'd say they're worth the difference from a standard game. Mostly, it's artbooks, steelbooks, soundtracks and posters, but going from $30 to $60 is a lot easier than $60 to $120. I don't really want any 12" figures in the first place, just junk that's going to lie around. I think they've hit on the right mix of items that people might actually use.

I got the Collectors edition of the last of us part 2 and I really liked what it came with. I think Naughty Dog put more work in the collector's edition than the actual games story.
My favorite CE is for The Witcher 3. It came with a full sized Artbook containing commentary from the art team, a Compendium that contains a lot of the post Conjunction of Spheres history of the world, a small reference book that contains excerpts on all of the major players in the game, the Collector's Edition game guide, a School of the Wolf medallion, an awesome statue of Geralt fighting a griffon, and it all came in a box signed by the entire dev team with a little thank you note. It retailed for $150 and now goes for +$700
I always buy Megami Tensei collector's editions. They're sort of my "treat yourself" items, and one of my favorites is probably the Showtime Premium Edition for Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth. I was already getting an awesome game and one of the last physical 3DS games ever built, the but edition also came with a deck of cards, a pin set, an artbook, and oh yeah, a KORORMARU PLUSHIE! The bestest happiest doggo in all of gaming and thanks to that edition I now have him in mini-plush form. It's pretty rad.
I always thought most of the Halo collector's editions were some of the best ever made, they always had really cool pack-ins and statues and things that were definitely worthwhile for die-hard fans
Jirard made me laugh so hard through out the whole video but my favorite was "they glow because of batteries"-Jirard love it thanks to Jirard and the whole team for always making me laugh and smile in every video.

I don't have any overly expensive collector's edition because money, but my favorite of the ones I own is definitely xenoblade chronicles hd, it comes with a stunning artbook, a steelbook with the 2 titans, a digital soundtrack download code and a vinyl with a monado print on it
I'm from a little city on the philippines so we have little-almost no choices of limited/collectors edition here but i have to say i was so stoked when i got my Octopath Traveler's Collector's edition, it's a beauty
I haven't had many but I loved, still love, and have shown off more than once... The Fable 3 collectors edition. The case being a book with a (barely) hidden compartment with goodies stored inside was just my favorite thing.
I didn't get that one but I had the InFamous 2 one that gave you Cole's backpack, it was pretty sweet. Man I really want them to make another InFamous game.
Honestly, I'd prefer if CE's go down in value after you buy them. That way more people get to buy them & enjoy them. I'm a collector enjoys the games & collectibles items themselves & not in it for the monetary value in hopes that they go up in price so I can make money.
@@djhero0071 But he doesn't have to start playing Royal to get the DLC theme that came with the collector's edition. Plus he might miss out on the trophey related themes and avatars if he waits too long to play the game.
@@djhero0071 In Persona 5 Royal along with other games, you can earn themes for your PS4 and avatars by earning trophies within a time frame. These are the settings needed to be on. www.playstation.com/en-us/legal/platinum-trophy-reward-terms-and-conditions/ For Persona 5 Royal, one can earn all of these but only if they platinum the game before the promotion ends. But it's unknown when that will be and it's only for certain areas at the moment. ruclips.net/video/4p8xXcFT3X0/видео.html I unlocked all of mine on Monday but I had to contact support for the e-mails to go though.
I don’t think he should. If you’ve seen the video he made for his Persona 5 Completion, he spent YEARS trying to beat it with all of the confidant route endings. He’s said it nearly broke him. I think after what he went through with that, he’ll probably wait some more time before going through it. (I also didn't know about the theme reward thing. Kinda cool tbh)
Really liked this top 10. The moments you revealed the original price & its current price, I legitimately couldn't tell if it was a bit when you got excited about the ones worth way more than what you paid. I think it's interesting to see the difference but I don't get anything out of knowing my collector stuff is worth more than it was. But, if you do, that's very intriguing to me. I've never once considered that a reason to collect games
"The game takes the revered Gods of Greek mythology and asks, what if they all ended up just being assholes?" That's the question you would only get from someone whose knowledge of Greek mythology is limited to the Disney's Herculese cartoon.
Thanks for an awesome and fun gi-through. 😊❤ For me, the moat beautiful collector's edition statue I own is the one from Mirror's Edge Catalyst. I just love the design. Also the statue with lighting from The Division.
If the We Happy Few Time Capsule came with the game, I bet it would be on the list! - Physical mask model - Lore book - Alarm clock that reminds you to take your Joy - Posters and stickers - Miniature light-up street sign - A working vinyl disc with the game's score!
inyrui well they said in some interviews that they’re going with the more serious tone similar to 2 and 3 but keeping core gameplay like gunplay and traversal from 4 and 5 since those were better optimized than 3. It really seems like they’re trying to make one for the fans this time with all the trial and errors through previous games. Let’s hope it’s the best or equal to 3
inyrui they said that they want to dive into the theme of is doing bad things right if it leads to a better future or to do good things even if it might not turn out great for everyone
"A Zelda game isn't a Zelda game without the Master Sword." *Looks at the NES Zeldas, Link's Awakening, the Oracle games, the Four Swords games, Minish Cap, and the DS games.*
The MGS V, Fallout 4 and Wolfenstein new colossus are amongst my faves. It's so cool to have such crazy collectors editions out there. Remember when we all used to get excited when a ps one game came with memory card stickers lol.
My two favorites are the Dishonored 2 and Skyrim. Corvo's mask and the signet ring make for great display pieces, as does Alduin on the draconic word wall. I even managed to get the Skyrim special edition for surprisingly cheap because I was gifted Skyrim for the wrong platform and had to go return it, where I found a much cheaper post-Christmas copy of the special edition.
My favorite Collector's Edition has to be the Ultimate Collector's Edition for Final Fantasy XV. I was gifted the money for it after I had a bit of a breakdown on FaceBook about getting the email for the waiting list, but being absolutely broke to where I couldn't even buy food, let alone the game. My mom saw my status and knowing how rough things were, paid for the edition as a combined birthday/Christmas/Easter present. It's been one of my most treasured parts of my collection ever since. The artbook, steelbooks showcasing the bros/playable cast of the game/movie/anime/soundtrack, and Play Arts Kai figure of Noctis with a special weapon exclusive to the UCE sit proudly displayed on my shelf, along with the gorgeous packaging that are artworks themselves. I'll treasure the FF XV UCE always and never get tired of it.
I still have my Star Fox Adventures survival kit with the bottle of green apple soda I never drank, the roll of game tips toilet paper I never wiped with, and the "Do not disturb - Adventure in Progress" sign I totally had on my door for a decade.
I'm surprised he didn't mention the secret in the God of War map. With all his cuts to the infinity eggs you figure he'd talk about the infinity gauntlet hidden within. Still a great list. :)
Well, we're hitting the ground running with a Jay Leno reference in the first second of the video, along with his god-tier chin. "Oh heyyy Jiroahd! So um... what kinda cuah do you droive?" Also, while I'm not too hot on big-time "collector's editions", I like it when physical copies of games come with "feelies", like what the Resi 7 box came with. Oh, and having a proper manual with some real personality and mechanics information, too.
Both Ni No Kuni games had absolutely stunning collector's editions. The spellbook alone was worth the price for both. And the wonderful music box? Amazing. And the diorama book in the Octopath Traveller collector's edition was better than the game it came with.
My personal favourite collector's ed is Halo Reach. I also have all AC collector's ed statue editions and bought most of them for half price or less [plan to do the same this year]. Bioshock Infinite songbird statue, Borderlands 2 loot chest, Fallout 4 pipboy, all WoW collector's, and a few others that aren't as great/too many to mention.
My personal favourite is Red Dead Redemption 2 Collectors Edition. That whole package includes stuff right out of the game. The Metal Box with lock and key, the full Wheeler, Rawson & co. shop Catalogue, cigarette cards and Playing cards with artworks of members of van der Linde gang, red bandana, unique coin, treasure map and more. Makes you feel like your part of the game. A whole collection of art pieces. Easy nr. 1 for me.
Favourite from my own collection would have to be Sonic Generations. Awesome statue, a ring for health, soundtrack CD, Casino Night DLC, a lenticular game sleeve... oh it's the king!

I don't have any overly expensive collector's edition because money, but my favorite of the ones I own is definitely xenoblade chronicles hd, it comes with a stunning artbook, a steelbook with the 2 titans, a digital soundtrack download code and a vinyl with a monado print on it
I'm from a little city on the philippines so we have little-almost no choices of limited/collectors edition here but i have to say i was so stoked when i got my Octopath Traveler's Collector's edition, it's a beauty
The horizon zero dawn collectors edition statue is also beautifully detailed
Except for one extremely important detail... they forgot to include the focus on her model. Doh!
I haven't had many but I loved, still love, and have shown off more than once... The Fable 3 collectors edition. The case being a book with a (barely) hidden compartment with goodies stored inside was just my favorite thing.
My favorite collector edition was Infamous: Second Son. You got DUP patches, buttons, and Delsin's beanie.
I didn't get that one but I had the InFamous 2 one that gave you Cole's backpack, it was pretty sweet. Man I really want them to make another InFamous game.
@@R0D3R1CKV10L3NC3 That sounds awesome.
We need an updated version of this.
Honestly, I'd prefer if CE's go down in value after you buy them. That way more people get to buy them & enjoy them. I'm a collector enjoys the games & collectibles items themselves & not in it for the monetary value in hopes that they go up in price so I can make money.
Spider-Man 2 Collector’s edition is expensive but, the statue is so gorgeous.
0:23 Why haven't you opened Persona 5 Royal yet!? Also, my favorite collectors edition to this day is still Darksiders II with Death's Mask.
He just recently did Persona 5 vanilla this year. Chill. That game is huge.
@@djhero0071 But he doesn't have to start playing Royal to get the DLC theme that came with the collector's edition. Plus he might miss out on the trophey related themes and avatars if he waits too long to play the game.
What do you mean by trophy related themes?
@@djhero0071 In Persona 5 Royal along with other games, you can earn themes for your PS4 and avatars by earning trophies within a time frame. These are the settings needed to be on. www.playstation.com/en-us/legal/platinum-trophy-reward-terms-and-conditions/
For Persona 5 Royal, one can earn all of these but only if they platinum the game before the promotion ends. But it's unknown when that will be and it's only for certain areas at the moment.

I unlocked all of mine on Monday but I had to contact support for the e-mails to go though.
I don’t think he should. If you’ve seen the video he made for his Persona 5 Completion, he spent YEARS trying to beat it with all of the confidant route endings. He’s said it nearly broke him. I think after what he went through with that, he’ll probably wait some more time before going through it. (I also didn't know about the theme reward thing. Kinda cool tbh)
"Drak Shouls Collector's Adition" Nice touch
Jirard: Says he is not going to mispronounce anything in dark souls ever agian
Jirard: "The Drak Shouls Colactors Addition..."
Really liked this top 10. The moments you revealed the original price & its current price, I legitimately couldn't tell if it was a bit when you got excited about the ones worth way more than what you paid. I think it's interesting to see the difference but I don't get anything out of knowing my collector stuff is worth more than it was. But, if you do, that's very intriguing to me. I've never once considered that a reason to collect games
"The game takes the revered Gods of Greek mythology and asks, what if they all ended up just being assholes?"
That's the question you would only get from someone whose knowledge of Greek mythology is limited to the Disney's Herculese cartoon.
Yeah real talk, most gods in myth are assholes.
I might have missed it but the AC3 special edition diary included secret pages you had to open up which was a cool little secret.
Sees all these cool collectors edition in the $100 range
"Cries in AUD" 😭😭
I just looked up USD to AUD. My commiserations.
As a collector myself, this video was so freaking kool to watch. Good stuff Jirard!
I want the infinity eggs to make the INFINITY OMELETTE!!!!
The price comparisons were an excellent touch, great video!
And then, in 2020, an entire generation learned how a VHS tape looks, even tho not understanding what it is.
Thanks for an awesome and fun gi-through. 😊❤
For me, the moat beautiful collector's edition statue I own is the one from Mirror's Edge Catalyst. I just love the design. Also the statue with lighting from The Division.
#1 would have to be the Shin Megami Tensei: Deep Strange Journey collector's edition exclusive to Japan
If the We Happy Few Time Capsule came with the game, I bet it would be on the list!
- Physical mask model
- Lore book
- Alarm clock that reminds you to take your Joy
- Posters and stickers
- Miniature light-up street sign
- A working vinyl disc with the game's score!
The farcy 6 collectors edition is sick af. 1:1 scale of I game flamethrower
Shame it’s 260 in Canada
inyrui why you say that?
inyrui well they said in some interviews that they’re going with the more serious tone similar to 2 and 3 but keeping core gameplay like gunplay and traversal from 4 and 5 since those were better optimized than 3. It really seems like they’re trying to make one for the fans this time with all the trial and errors through previous games. Let’s hope it’s the best or equal to 3
inyrui they said that they want to dive into the theme of is doing bad things right if it leads to a better future or to do good things even if it might not turn out great for everyone
"no one's robbing this zombie." That's very funny. I appreciate it.
Girard about god of war: what if the good were actually assholes ?
actual gods: We already are
Wait, gods are assholes?
Always have been
I was literally looking for a top 10 collectors editions yesterday
I need to prioritize space for games so I rarely get collector's editions.
That RE7 Music box gave me chills, that's so cool!
"It's Moment Like These thatexplain why I'M SO SERIOUS... about special editions"
silly
"Moment" singular
Claptrap running into the wall and falling over is pretty on brand ngl.
"A Zelda game isn't a Zelda game without the Master Sword."
*Looks at the NES Zeldas, Link's Awakening, the Oracle games, the Four Swords games, Minish Cap, and the DS games.*
Im looking everywhere for the SWTOR Collectors Edition with the Darth Malgus statue! Awesome video Jirard!
Is everyone forgetting about the Doom Eternal collectors edition that comes with the slayer helmet that you can wear?
Yeah oof
The MGS V, Fallout 4 and Wolfenstein new colossus are amongst my faves. It's so cool to have such crazy collectors editions out there. Remember when we all used to get excited when a ps one game came with memory card stickers lol.
Are you putting off Hyrule warriors definitive edition.
2:22 The PETTY!!! Bro, you wild as hell for that! XD
My two favorites are the Dishonored 2 and Skyrim. Corvo's mask and the signet ring make for great display pieces, as does Alduin on the draconic word wall. I even managed to get the Skyrim special edition for surprisingly cheap because I was gifted Skyrim for the wrong platform and had to go return it, where I found a much cheaper post-Christmas copy of the special edition.
You like the Dishonored 2 collector's edition? That's my favorite!
My favorite Collector's Edition has to be the Ultimate Collector's Edition for Final Fantasy XV. I was gifted the money for it after I had a bit of a breakdown on FaceBook about getting the email for the waiting list, but being absolutely broke to where I couldn't even buy food, let alone the game. My mom saw my status and knowing how rough things were, paid for the edition as a combined birthday/Christmas/Easter present. It's been one of my most treasured parts of my collection ever since. The artbook, steelbooks showcasing the bros/playable cast of the game/movie/anime/soundtrack, and Play Arts Kai figure of Noctis with a special weapon exclusive to the UCE sit proudly displayed on my shelf, along with the gorgeous packaging that are artworks themselves. I'll treasure the FF XV UCE always and never get tired of it.
This was a really cool top 10 video idea. Good work Jirard🤙🏾
A Completionist Produced Video Game movie?
*Nobunaga Voice* : Interesting...
Would be done with a lot of love thats for sure
I still have my Star Fox Adventures survival kit with the bottle of green apple soda I never drank, the roll of game tips toilet paper I never wiped with, and the "Do not disturb - Adventure in Progress" sign I totally had on my door for a decade.
So the ones that mean the most to you are the ones that are the most valuable. True collector right there
I'm surprised he didn't mention the secret in the God of War map. With all his cuts to the infinity eggs you figure he'd talk about the infinity gauntlet hidden within. Still a great list. :)
“We canmot have a zelda game without the Master Sword”
Minish Cap -hold my beer
Well, we're hitting the ground running with a Jay Leno reference in the first second of the video, along with his god-tier chin. "Oh heyyy Jiroahd! So um... what kinda cuah do you droive?"
Also, while I'm not too hot on big-time "collector's editions", I like it when physical copies of games come with "feelies", like what the Resi 7 box came with. Oh, and having a proper manual with some real personality and mechanics information, too.
You went above and beyond for this video, love it man. I really enjoyed it
Both Ni No Kuni games had absolutely stunning collector's editions. The spellbook alone was worth the price for both. And the wonderful music box? Amazing.
And the diorama book in the Octopath Traveller collector's edition was better than the game it came with.
Bioshock 2 and Halo 3 are my fav collectors edition. Bioshock having a vinyl with the games score. Chefs kiss 🤌🏼
My personal favourite collector's ed is Halo Reach.
I also have all AC collector's ed statue editions and bought most of them for half price or less [plan to do the same this year].
Bioshock Infinite songbird statue, Borderlands 2 loot chest, Fallout 4 pipboy, all WoW collector's, and a few others that aren't as great/too many to mention.
My personal favourite is Red Dead Redemption 2 Collectors Edition. That whole package includes stuff right out of the game. The Metal Box with lock and key, the full Wheeler, Rawson & co. shop Catalogue, cigarette cards and Playing cards with artworks of members of van der Linde gang, red bandana, unique coin, treasure map and more. Makes you feel like your part of the game. A whole collection of art pieces. Easy nr. 1 for me.
Favourite from my own collection would have to be Sonic Generations. Awesome statue, a ring for health, soundtrack CD, Casino Night DLC, a lenticular game sleeve... oh it's the king!
Awesome video! Loved the addition of telling us how much they are worth. Very cool!
The best part about the batman statue is there's a button under one of the building and batman lights up. It's so awesome.
"Is that a gentleman claptrap with a top hat, monocle, and mustache! Come on Master chief LETS GET THE FUCK OUTA HERE!"
