Starcraft II Collectors' Edition rocks our world

Gallery: Could Starcraft II's CE be the most awesome collection of stuff ever? We think it comes close...

We have in our sweaty, excited hands the Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty Collectors' Edition. It's heavy. It's awesome. It smells of win.

And are we going home to play it? No. We're taking the time to photography it all, write about it, and share it with you. If that's not love, we don't know what is.

The set is simply amazing, and nothing's been skimped on, from the fantastic art book to the metal-cased USB dog-tag, this is one classy set of material. So if you want to see what's in the box - and trust me, you do - get clicking through our gallery of shots, which also includes a few glimpses of inside the art book.

And, now that's done... 

*runs off to play game*

I don't have the original game, so buying this and having the original game on the usb stick is awesome. Will hopefully get it :)

Strategy, huh? Build bunkers, put Marines in bunkers, sit back and watch Marines fight to the last man.

Damn Zerg kept just beating me to the artifact in "Smash and Grab" (first mission with Protoss in it, and first one that you have a choice of which to do, i think... my 4th overall)... Was too tired to keep playing last night though.
Hopefully i'll kick their arses and continue on tonight. =)

Loving it so far though!

Gee I'm usually a cheap bastard getting games on special in budget packs, but that Collectors' Edition looks good. Shame I'm low on the money at the moment.

I am madly dropping hints so my wifey will buy me this one for my birthday next month, I can wait that long I reckon, after all, I spent nearly five times as much on her birthday party and pressies, a lil game won't break the budget

tator - the game might not break the budget but may break the relationship, months spent strategising scenario's, ranking up and downloading more maps to play with the 5 or so clans u have attached to, I see a rocky relationship ahead lol.

New games these days require the following:-
*System upgrade.
*New desk chair.
*…and a drop of your current female to get in enough game time and reduce nagging to a min lol
