Fallout 3 Survival Edition for the PS3 has sold out photo

PlayStation 3 owners that have been sitting on the fence judging the apparent value of Fallout 3’s Survival Edition versus the plain-Jane retail copy will no longer have a choice in the matter. According to Bethesda’s developer blog, the Amazon exclusive PS3 bundle is completely sold out and the special page for it has been removed. Also, Bethesda is saying that the Games for Windows bundle is “expected to sell out soon as well.”

If you’re unfamiliar with what is inside the packaging, it’s quite prolific, although a tad bit pricey. The Xbox 360/PS3 bundles hit at $130, while the Games for Windows bundle is $119.99 on Amazon. Thankfully, you can get all of this if you’re willing to part with the change:

  • The Fallout 3 game
  • Customized metal Vault-Tec lunch box
  • Vault Boy Bobblehead
  • The Art of Fallout 3' hardcover book
  • ‘The Making of Fallout 3' DVD
  • A clock that tells time Fallout 3 style

If you are an Xbox 360 owner and still thinking about ordering the Survival Edition of the game, I may be of some service. A long time ago I accidently bought the limited edition version of Madden NFL 07. It came with a bonus DVD filled with five movies about kids that play Madden in tournaments. It was awesome and definitely worth my money, therefore you should buy this crazy huge Fallout 3 package.

Damn, I've been going back and forth about this for awhile now. Hopefully the PC version will stay in stock until October. I don't get my next paycheck 'till then..

The collector's edition also has all of that stuff.

The "survival edition" comes with a pip-boy clock. I believe that is the only difference.

The collector's edition is still available.

I was set to buy the normal version. But every time I hear a limited edition being sold out...I start to want it. I'm sick.

Brad, you neglect mention the Pip-Boy 3000 clock, shown in the picture. That's the reason it's $130 and not $80.

Anyways, I already ordered the Survival Edition for 360, so I'm set.

Yeah ummm.....That pictue and price is for the HUGE collecters edition which is the $130 and is exclusive to Amazon.com that comes with the clock, is it not?

Also, not allowed to buy it if your Canadian (assholes)

The special edition in Canada is $10 more than the regular edition and I know you get.

The Fallout 3 game
Customized metal Vault-Tec lunch box
Vault Boy Bobblehead

As well as a music CD as soon as you place your pre-order and the music sucks pretty hard...lol not sure if you get a dvd as well as an art booklet...I will have to see

@Brad Nicholson

Want to steal/find/buy/trade me a copy of the survival edition for my special edition (PS3) and ship it to me, or just find me that clock somewhere....

i preordered this awhile ago because i knew i needed the pipboy... at the time amazon had a deal where if you bought using Bill Me Later it would take like 20 off of the total price, so it wasn't all that bad

It looks really tacky, where would you put this stuff? The bobble-head is cute but still..

I'm all about the bobblehead and lunch box but I don't think I'm putting down $50 for a plastic clock.

It sucks that this isn't/wasn't available in the UK, it's one of the few collector versions I'd have happily splashed out the extra for. I've already managed to palm a Fallout 3 Tee from a recent conference - best free T-shirt ever.

Even though majority of the d-bags that preordered are all up in arms cause FO3 doesn't support trophies. OH WAAAAAHHH!

Tacky? TACKY?! YOU THINK IT LOOKS TACKY?! Wtf? GDIF! :D

Not surprise at all, since it comes with some pretty neat things like that awesome lunch box.

It's a bummer Amazon don't ship games outside the US, I was gonna pre-order Fallout 3 when it got banned in Oz, especially for with that sweet Pip-Boy alarm clock. Wonder if there will be any on ebay come launch.

Or if any Dtoiders would be willing to ship on to me..... nudge nudge, wink wink.

That's awesome... although I'll probably just get the regular version of this.

I figured, if I'm gonna bitch and whine and be mortally offended by how un-Fallout this new game is gonna be, I may as well be offended by the Collectors Edition ( since I'm in the UK, and can't get the PipBoy clock edition ).

I'm just glad that my willingness to pay any amount of money for Fallout related things hasn't been abused by the powers that be. Yet. There is still this Project V13 to rape my wallet, I guess :(
