I have to sort of agree. I had a quick look at the various editions and the digital version(s) pumping more online mode (and GTA V related items) as a bonus didn't really make me too interested myself. The box in the physical "whopper" editing looks cool but I'd honestly prefer a physical copy of the game especially with my pathetic internet. Also not a fan of so much content being locked behind a pre-order combined with being platform exclusive even if just timed. I'm super excited that we're getting so close now and that they appear to be a lot more confident with this info dump that we'll still see the game this year still but at the same time I'm not ready to actually place a pre-order for any version just yet as our local retailers are a bit slow and the prices will no doubt fluctuate accordingly (I don't have a console capable of running RDR2 yet either which is primarily why I'm waiting it out). Anyway I'm still super keen to pick up a version but at the same time I'm also willing to wait things out a big longer if required. They do come off as a bit sharky with the current offerings and push to pre-order ASAP (place your pre-orders by the end of July?)

Im gonna have to ask the obvious... why doesn't the ultimate edition come with everything? Unless i'm mistaken it sounds as if you don't get the GTA $$ or the extra treasure map unless you pre-order a digital copy, which evidently excludes the hard case and poster. so its not the true ultimate edition. So if you buy physical you don't get the $$ and map, but if you buy digital you don't get the Steelbook and poster. It sounds like they are trying to split their ultimate editions for the handful of people who need to have it all, and will buy both. If that's the case that is truly scummy. Also locking missions of behind paywalls and pre-order bonuses is pretty disgusting. What happened to the special editions with a few skins and guns, and a few fun IRL trinkets? why do we have to buy a special edition just to get the complete game, then fork out just as much money again to get far too much junk. Why couldn't they just include a coin, pack of cards and some other shit along with the base game? This is really disappointing, if that is the case. I don't know if R* monitors these kinds of boards but I own every single Mainline R* game since the PS1 era and this is really really worrying .

...and sage.

This has to be the same as Far Cry which lets you see nearby animals for hunting purposes.

The exclusive content for PS4 is reduced graphics quality

Man, I am going to end up spending more than I intended on this game. I kind of want to get two of the collector's editions. One to keep sealed and one to open. That is going to be so much money though...
