Europe is getting its own special edition Dead Rising 2, so why not North America? Capcom has announced today that North America will be receiving the "Zombrex Edition," a $79.99 package that contains a number of goodies beyond the game disc.
Both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the "Zombrex Edition" are largely the same, each shipping with a two-disc steelbook case that comes with a Zombrex syringe pen, a prescription notepad, a safety card, a 16-page Zombrex" prospectus sales brochure, and a 48-page artwork.
The PlayStation 3 versions comes with a Blu-Ray disc featuring a 24-minute "making of" feature, and a voucher for a dynamic Xross Media Bar theme. The 360 version gets a "high definition game disc" with the 83 minute "Zombrex Dead Rising Sun" movie and the 24-minute "making of featurette." Odd that with all of the space on the Blu-ray disc, it actually features less content, no?
The bundle's out when the game hits shelves on September 28. I must say, the lack of the awesome zombie doll that Europe is getting is a bit unsettling.

You obviously did smack instead of play with toys when you were younger.
Keep the pen and the other pretend branded crap, I just want my art book and game.
My euro one with figure for the Zombrex stuff edition?
Pretty please?
Other than that this sounds pretty nifty. But really only the movie and art book seem to have any value. Well for me at least. If you're a "collector" (and I do believe that's the target audience) the rest is probably good too.
Personally, artbooks are the CE elements I care about, so this one's more in my price range.
LMAO I was just thinking the exact same thing! You got that too huh? Love Re-Animator!
Even Falliut New Vegas' CE is lacking compared to Fallout 3 in my opinion.
Artbook is really the only thing that looks interesting the set.
I enjoy the bonus / making of videos. Mostly because I like to drool @ the PC hardware they have for making the games. Also a fan of seeing the studio layout and staff vibe.
