Wow, these guys aren't fucking around, are they? LOL! I Tournament Edition sounds very intriguing. Hopefully there will be more exclusive content for XBOX 360 players. Maybe not an exclusive guest character (which everyone seems to hate) but like exclusive downloadable content like an extra arena

I like figures,especially if it's MK's,but I doesn't really like that old figures,which I think suck,maybe new ones will be smoother...
And I'm just BLOWN AWAY with that classic MK Reptile look,if there'll be more,I'll buy it in no time!

oh wow that Reptile skin is just tooo sick, I think I'm gonna have to do my first ever pre-order at Amazon just for that
so far I think I will probably end up getting the Kollector's Edition just for the sub zero and scorpion figurines and the art book

Or is that for regular edition and Kollector's & Torumanent editions come with all 3?
Hey Fuzz, are there any images of Scorpion and Sub-Zero like that Reptile one at the top?

I'd prefer Reptile's kontent over Scorpion's and Sub-Zero's, but I already preordered for GS, and will change to Kollector's Edition for the Artbook and free DLC.

Definitely preordering the collector's edition from gamestop
I'm with you! Haha...
I have a question though... and anybody that knows can answer...
Basically I'm just sort of konfused... Let's see if I have this right...
IF... you were to preorder the Xbox360 Kollector's Edition through GameStop...
You get---
- The Game
- Original Scorpion Fatality
- Downloadable Content (Klassic Scorpion Playable Character Skin)
- Downloadable Kontent (Avatar Costumes for King of the Hill Mode)
- Art of MK Kollectors Book
- A Scorpion figurine?
IF... you were to preorder the Xbox360 Kollector's Edition through Best Buy...
You get---
- The Game
- Original Sub Zero Fatality
- Downloadable Content (Klassic Sub Zero Playable Character Skin)
- Downloadable Kontent (Avatar Costumes for King of the Hill Mode)
- Art of MK Kollectors Book
- A Sub Zero figurine?
IF... you were to preorder the Xbox360 Kollector's Edition through Amazon...
You get---
- The Game
- Original Reptile Fatality
- Downloadable Content (Klassic Reptile Playable Character Skin)
- Downloadable Kontent (Avatar Costumes for King of the Hill Mode)
- Art of MK Kollectors Book
- No figurine? Either or?
Or does the Kollector's Edition actually come with BOTH Scorpion AND Sub Zero figurines???
The reason I'm not sure about this is because the picture only shows one figurine... yet the way it's worded in the details says Sub Zero AND Scorpion figurines.... not Sub Zero OR Scorpion Figurine...
So, if they do come with both... then the difference between PS3 and Xbox360 would be...
PS3 exclusive - Character (Kratos) + 3D mode
360 exclusive - Avatar Kostumes + King of the Hill mode
So... please help me out here... SOMEbody get out a Dora the Explorer coloring book and draw me a fucking picture...... please!?

okay yeah you are pretty much right for the most part except the figurines...
basically no matter where you pre-order or buy the Kollector's edition they will all come with the Sub Zero and Scorpion figurines. The figurines are basically bookends so Scorpion will be on one end shooting his spear and based on the shadow of the box I'm assuming on the other end Sub Zero will be impaled by Scorpion's spear. I think it should make for pretty nifty book ends to hold all my video games ^ . ^

I'm probably just gonna buy the standard version. All these extras don't really seem worth the hefty price tags. For me, it'll just be crap that will sit around forever. And all the bonus costumes, etc. will probably all be available via DLC eventually, anyways.
