If you like crying and things that are far away, then you'll be disappointed with Far Cry 2, which actually has none of those things. Still, here's a shot of the game's special collector's edition to cheer you up. Released on October 24 in Europe, it's got everything you'd expect -- an art book, a shirt, a map and a DVD. The game also ships in a special wooden box, which I find somewhat classy. Here's the official rundown of contents:
To celebrate the release of Far Cry® 2, Ubisoft is happy to unveil the Far Cry® 2 Collectors’ Edition that will include:
- Exclusive wooden box
- Original Far Cry® 2 Game
- Limited edition Far Cry® 2 t-shirt
- “The Art of Far Cry® 2” Art book
- Collector 50km² map
- Making-of DVD
You can also hit the jump for the press release, because blogs are unpaid advertisments who are tricked into hawking the products of publishers. I feel like such a disgraceful whore.

That's got to be the world's biggest map!
T-shirt?
I bet it's XL. I hate that about shirts. Everyone always has to do huge one's because this world is so fat.
All I wear are small shirts. Anything bigger just annoys me.
considering how many games are coming out this year I can't even buy Fallout's special edition :(
That is a pretty neat set though but I will skip it as I will be grabbing Fallout 3 and RFOM2 special sets.
