I had to work 7-5 today, so i went to my local wal-mart to pick it up afterward, and they had 2 collector's for the ps3, and now there gone, and everywhere online is sold out. People are now selling copies for as low as $130, and I wonder if i should just deal with getting the regular copy of the game, as i really wanted the collectors.

online sold out at most stores over a month ago. Gamestop was the last one to go last week.

If you can wait, your local best buy will have like 10 of them in a month or 2. That's how mine is anyways.

I thought it was pretty well understood that if you want a collector's edition you should pre-order it?

Yeah I've honestly never heard of someone just walking into a store for a collector's edition. Not since like 1995 anyways.

Definitely gotta preorder those things.  Most stores will only have 1 or 2 lying around, tops.

there's a slight chance some more editions will be printed and hit the stores in month (F3 Bobblehead edition is still out there even now) but this CE seems to be in very limited supply which doesn't guarantee a reprint.

I got fudged with Amazon on my copy of the collector's edition.

They'll make more, they want the moneys.
