Bethesda Announces Fallout New Vegas Collector's Edition

Like most highly-anticpated new releases, Fallout New Vegas will be getting its very own Limited Collector’s Edition (above). The version packed with bonuses will be available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. Bethesda announced the extras included today, and we’re definitely noticing a gambling theme. The package will include seven “Lucky 7” poker chips, which in the game represent the major casinos found in the wasteland. A special “Lucky 38” platinum chip will also be included, which seems to have some story significance. The gambling items are rounded out by a custom deck of New Vegas cards, with its own characters. The press release teases that players can use them to play traditional card games, or Caravan, which was created for New Vegas. Other, more traditional CE bonuses include a hardcover graphic novel from Dark Horse comics, and a documentary DVD with making-of features.  “We’re offering this very cool collector’s edition to give fans the opportunity to own some of the items that they’ll discover while playing Fallout: New Vegas,” said marketing VP Pete Hines in the press release. “We are also expanding their experience with the game by including a top-notch graphic novel worthy of the Fallout name and a DVD that gives them a behind-the-scenes look at how the game was created.” – 1up
