Ok so ever since the announcement of the 3 editions of GoW 3 people have been wondering what will be included in each edition of the game. Today, Epic games released information on what will be included in each edition.

Standard Edition ($59.99)

• Just the stand alone game

Limited Edition ($79.99)

• An Octus Award Box and Octus Service Medal – Replicas of the honors bestowed on Adam Fenix, Marcus’s father, for his work on the Hammer of Dawn.

• Exclusive Unlockable Adam Fenix Multiplayer Character – Each Octus Service Medal replica is engraved with a unique Xbox LIVE code that is the only way to unlock Adam Fenix in multiplayer.

• A fabric COG Flag – Proud colors that once flew above the House of Sovereigns.

• The personal effects of Adam Fenix, including his “Last Will and Testament,” the initial Hammer of Dawn schematic, and other Fenix family mementos.

Epic Edition ($149.99)

• A Limited Edition Marcus Fenix Statue – Designed by Epic Games Art Director Chris Perna and expertly crafted by the artisans at Triforce, this fine PVC statue collectible makes the ultimate living room centerpiece for any true “Gears” fan.

• The Art and Design of Gears of War by Tom Bissell – Through unprecedented access to the Epic Games team, acclaimed author Tom Bissell (Extra Lives) gives readers an incisive behind-the-scenes glimpse into one of the most celebrated sagas in video game history with 96 pages of interviews, photos, concept artwork and more.

Mosquito, thanks for this post bro. I know I will walk into the store telling myself I will only buy the limited edition. Leaving only minutes later with the Epic in my hand; buyers remorse in my head...Damn GOW, why do you have to be so cool!

Anybody else feel like this is in direct competition with the reach pre-order package, they literally are mirrors of each other. I'm gonna go with the limited because the only thing in the epic edition i want is the weapon skins, and they are not worth 70$ + taxes.

For the most part i agree, but I feel you actually get more for your dollar with this than the Reach Legendary edition. There is a bit more content included and the statue was made by Project Triforce, which creates better quality items than McFarlane.

I already paid off the $150 and I feel it was money well spent. Then again, Gears is my favorite series on the 360 and I collect all those statues and collectibles in general from games.
