So today I am eagerly awaiting my copy of Bioshock 2. Not that I can play it yet… probably only 1/3 if not 1/2 of the way through the first one, haha. I did start playing it when it first came out but there were some bugs with the PC version at the time and ended up putting it into my backlog. Years later… low and behold Bioshock 2 was announced.

As a fan, I did order the Bioshock 2: Limited Edition /insert ooohs and ahhh’s here. Got it from Amazon and calculating the tax, I went ahead and got it overnighted since it would have came out about the same had I paid it at a retail store. Come on FEDEX!

It comes with a few other things like a soundtrack CD, an LP that I will probably never listen to, and 3 special lithographs. Overall I still don’t see how developers nowadays charge $100 for their limiteds. When Blizzard came out with the first collector’s edition of World of Warcraft that thing was only 80 dollars and JAM packed with stuff in it.

The main selling point for me was the art book; 160 page hard back book, but again is that worth the extra 45 bucks for the box? Probably not, but as a fan of the game, it was a worthy investment.

EDIT: Welp, FedEx had to ruin my excitement… my tracking stopped in Orlando and won’t be delivered till tomorrow.  Apparently things were/are rough up in Tennessee where my package was sent (from Texas), which I didn’t quite understand their routes.  Anyway, I called up Amazon and they refunded me my one day shipping so I guess that makes up for it.  Hopefully, it gets here tomorrow in one piece :-/
