Looking forward to Splinter Cell: Conviction? Want a statue of Sam Fisher? Haven't gotten completely sick and tired of pointless, arrogant special editions? You are in lucky lucksome lucktimes, my friend! The collector's edition for Conviction has been revealed, and it's packed full of so much nonsense you'll weep tears of blood!
Here's the full list of fun that will be included when the game ships on February 26:
The game's multiplayer mode is also set to reveal later this month, debuting on December 16 via Xbox Live. Conviction is looking set to be a seriously cool game, so make sure you keep an eye out for the multiplayer. While you wait, let us know if you're planning to pick up this special edition!

Hell, if the soundtrack is anywhere near as good as the previous two games that would definitely lean me towards buying it
This is how you do a special edition...Add "extra" stuff/modes as an incentive to purchase.
I'll probably wait until it goes on sale for $50, but I'll pick up the special ed.
I despise Launch-date DLC since it's simply a means of selling a single game at a higher-than-standard price. Developers/publishers are being reimbursed for their production and distribution costs through the retail pricetag of the game, while selling an additionally pre-launch-developed piece of software in a separate transaction.
Special editions that come with this material only propagate this business model by providing a sense of value to their piecemealing of a game. I'm all for the addition of limited packaging, behind-the-scenes info, additional character-skins, and detailed figurines. Also, can someone tell me why collector's editions aren't coming with premium themes!? I think that's absolute garbage.
Yeah... that's the same thing I was thinking seeing as it's right here. Of course, I would rather go for the statue than the USB drive anyways. The decals however... *ponders*

Fuck Yes.
I'll give it to my sister-in-law, I guess. If she'll even take it. Rest of the special edition is nice.
