I've got mine pre-purchased, driving all the way back to Louisville to pick it up. Enjoyed Diablo II so much that I decided I wanted a special copy of Diablo III
you are from Louisville? me too... lets play diablo when it's out! i am also getting a CE from amazon delivered on the 15th
I ordered mine online yesterday after the EB games in Canada re-enabled their web pre-order. The second I saw it didn't say sold out I bought it instantly without hesitation.
At 150$ I'll pass.
If it was cheaper here, sure, but not at the mentioned price point.
I got mine for $102 with taxes, where are you from that it is so high?
China, Beijing currently.
Only things I was interested in were the USB soulstone and the behind-the-scenes DVD.
I have ordered the standard edition instead, for 55$, I guess it'll have to do.
Not that big of a deal frankly as I can put that money into another great game, namely Max Payne 3.
I am getting it. you people saying "too much money?"
get a better job... i support things i enjoy in life including diablo and make plenty enough to do so
Pre-orderd my CE a while ago... im kinda unlucky but lucky at the same time living in NZ... Unlucky - The CE costs $213 NZ -.- dont know why but thats fricken expensive(EB games price). Lucky - NZ is at the front of the time zone or what ever that is so we are the first people in the world to hit the 15th of may. So i get my CE at the midnight release, but cant play till later that day when the servers go live. That gives me time to look at all the CE stuff, so im pretty happy.
it sounds like you are working just to be able to buy games, what a stupid thing to do in life.Because there are more inportant things just to waste money on some games :D. But whatever, not all people are like you who lives just for game,and will do all just to get some stupid collectors editions witch gives you nothing more than standart edition.You have same lvl cap,same chars,same relese date,and same opening servers time.So whats makes you so special with your better job then others?I will answear my question in your place.Your stupid childish brains makes you special,becsuse others are not so dumb, to waste money on some CE.But you I guess would hang yourself if you wouldnt get CE(collectors edition).
*****
I work...
I get paid...
I spend it on what I like CE or not CE or if I want I can spend it on whatever I like and not you or anyone else in this earth can tell me what I can or want to spend my pay on regardless of whichever moral ground you stand on... and let me assure you that there are a TONCRAP much worse things I could spend it on than a video game...
Wake up to yourself and check that silly mentality at the forum door.
another one who slipped past the lifeguard in the gene pool..... sheshhh
I buy the CE but I won't get it on release 15th of may.
So then I must buy the game again (virtual download etc) and play that, until my CE comes... so i'm paying double to be able to use CE but still play on the day of release?
I'm only going off of what you just said here, so if you have to wait for it to be shipped or something, then yes. Otherwise you can pick up the CE day of release at most places and then play.
If you HAVE to have it shipped, then sorry mate. It's either wait a couple days or buy the digital DL. (this is why even though I ordered CE x 2 I also bought the annual pass just because I like to keep my wow active.)

What a stupid comment.
Yes his comment about getting a better job if you can't buy the CE is stupid as well, and condescending.
But eventually, he's right. He works for his money, he has every right to buy a big screen tv, an expensive car, weed or alcohol.
And even, a Diablo 3 CE. Especially if he likes Blizzard and want to support them.
If he has enough food for his loved ones, a roof over their heads, and health, then why not treat your self?
After all these years, I doubt a true hardcore fan of the Diablo franchise won't buy the CE.

Where's that giant troll pic where he's flippin people off. Insert that.
First of all Id like to just say, yes my original comment was condescending and posted in a quick hurry, sorry for that one.
ShermenZ pretty much says it how it is in his post. work to live, dont live to work. Also, for the record. I do have all those things, because I work hard to enjoy everything I can out of my life. If that means D3 CE for my gf, brother and I.. then so be it. Its pretty much the only game I play at the moment (beta), and like many here I have been playing Diablo since the 90s so why not? I bought CDs to support a band yesterday *agalloch is a great band* when I could have just downloaded their music? I always give to charity too. By supporting these things, does that make me childish? Im wasting my own earned money? I take care of myself and others in my life.. I don't need to explain anymore, the majority took defense from your stupid comment already.

I'm not buying the CE because I dont want the stuff inside it for an additional $40.
More power to those who do, but frankly the stuff in it just isn't that exciting or worth the $40. CEs have always just looked like money grabs to me from producers. I don't know why people like them so much. But hey, whatever makes you happy.

What an unneccessary comment. I make PLENTY to be able to afford basically anything I want outside of the most lavish cars and houses. I'm not getting the CE because it's "too much money" relative to the throwaway plastic crap inside.
It's much more like "hey these people have been waiting years for this game, we can easily throw in $5-$10 of extras and charge an additional $40+ for these CE versions." CEs have always been an easy cashgrab for major IPs of any producer. Oh, and if you justify doing because you want to "support blizzard" then you are fucking retarded. Blizzard doesn't need any additional support, it's small struggling developers and production companies that do. Every cent you spend on blizzard goes directly into Activi$ions wallet (who was a huge supporter and funder of SOPA). A bill that would have permanently shut down diablofans.com.

You guys are fucking sheep.
Hey.. take it easy there dude, don't want to burst a vein.
You are correct, Activision are a bunch of money loving douchebags, but Blizzard are a fine game company, that again and again creates amazing games, that never fail.
And it's true that the CE content is worth less then the money spend for it, so in that sense yea, it's a way to make people pay extra for less.
But do you think the game it self is worth 60$? of course it's not.
So basically you're doing the same thing we, the CE buyers do, only for less money.
The thing you don't realize is that we like the stuff inside. I don't care if it's cheap plastic. I like looking at that skull standing on my table. I like having that huge box sitting on my closet. And I REALLY like the art book, since it correlates with the line of work I do for a living.
The money we spend on CE is no more waste of money then you spend on the normal version.
We're just complete with our love, and you, in my humble opinion, are not.

Likewise. I've held off on the CE's for all the other games and expansions, but I cannot hold back for D3!
