The Most Kickass Collectors Edition Video Games Packaging

Video Games Packaging have become prettier and prettier over the years as more and more gamers are willing to buy them. I’m no gamer– in fact, I do hate games because I believe they promote laziness and violence. Yes, I’m unpleasant like that. Somebody shoot me now. But I do love collector’s edition video games packaging! So much that it made me forget my hatred for video games. If you’re looking for a perfect gift for a gamer in your life or if you’re simply looking for CD/DVD packaging inspiration, then this is for you. Here are some of the most creative packaging and collector’s items for video games.

Fall Out 3

I’m not a gamer but I fell in love with Fall-out 3’s goodies! The set comes with the iconic bobblehead and a functional lunch box. Too cool!

Shogun Total War 2

Definitely the best gift to give a video gamer who’s a chess addict as well. Spell N-E-R-D. The Shogun Total War 2 Collector’s Edition has been announced, and it includes a complete chess set, artbook, “Art of War” Bamboo box replica, and a Takeda Shingen Daimyo figurine.

Warner Brothers Interactive  Collector’s Edition of Batman: Arkham City. This $99 set includes custom Batman statue,art book, early access to the Iceberg Lounge Challenge Map and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns skin, Batman: Arkham City album, Batman: Gotham Knight Four collectible cards. I just love the black and white and red combo. Makes the whole set a work of art.

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception

This set comes in “Travelling Chest” which contains the kick-ass 8.5″ Nathan Drake Statue, Wearable replica of Nathan Drake’s belt buckle, Wearable replica of Nathan Drake’s ring with necklace strap, Exclusive Steelbook™ game case. Kudos for the wearable concept. Perfect gift for hard-to-please men (or boys). If he finds the game lame, at least he still has the Nathan Drake statue. If after 2 minutes he gets tired of it, well…at least he has functional items like the buckle and necklace.

Includes an Artbook, redemption code,game items, and of course- a handsome statue.
