Mailbag

Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: BioShock 2 Unboxening Edition

Spoiler alert: Drew goes nuts at the end.

What's in the mail? Is it an old T-shirt? A lunchbox full of rusty knives? Video game treasures? Canadian energy drinks?

The Pip-boy version of Fallout 3 was only available via amazon. Also, the Pip-boy was a clock.

Wait. Who else noticed the drawing to the right? Back, Forward, Hard Punch = Guy with gun (and backwards baseball cap) shooting gun. I find that the best thing about this video.

Umm, what was that stick figure drawing.  The tableau of a backwards baseball cap wearing guy with a gun I get, but what was the notation along the bottom? "B, F, HP"
 
Oh, also. . . Actual album, nice.
 
*edit* ah, yes.  Back, Forward, Hard Punch.  Now, I would like a little background about this drawing.  Maybe Terry Bogard flipped his trucker hat around backward, put away the basketball and picked up a gun?

The Age of Conan collector's edition was larger.  And it had porn.  And a cloth map.

got my xbox 360 collectors edition today and theres a few slight differences. Not sure if its coz mine is 360 and this is ps3 or because im in the UK . 
I think its probably one of the better collectors editions but one thing is you dont get any ingame stuff.

My attention keeps going toward to what appears to be a drawn diagram for Stryker's gun attack on the side there.

LOL @ this video's still image. WTF is that on Jeff's desk!? Could it be a fairly detailed sketch of Stryker shooting someone in the face with the Back, Forward, High Punch special move? AWESOME.

So much extra stuff, possibly to make up for a mediocre game?

OHMYGAWWWDDDDD I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU GUYS SPOILED BIOSHOCK 2 FOR ME GEEZ I DIDN'T KNOW THE GAME HAD A SCORE AND ART!
 
Seriously, though, I don't know if I will be playing Bioshock 2. I don't mean to be a snob or anything, but it just sounds so..."corporate".

And it was one of the worst collector bonuses ever.
 
The clock was fucking terrible. A piece of cheap plastic crap, of which the majority shipped either broken or faulty and drained batteries like a vampire in a blood bank. When you talk to Bethesda about getting it fixed they told you to contact the manufacturer who wanted $20 shipping to replace it.
 
It wasn't even painted to look like it's product shot either.
 
That looks like a really nice art book in the Bioshock 2 package. Probably one of the best I've seen.
