Petition to Game Studios

[Groo The Perverted]

Here's an idea, something I've thought of the last few days while debating whether or not to cancel my pre-order for the CE of LBP2 (I did, and got the regular version).

How can we get it across to the studios that they need to be more forthcoming with the specs and details of the Collector's Editions?

When God of War III Ultimate Edition was coming out there were many many people (myself included) who had no idea what the Pandora's box was going to be made of, whether it was some cheap crap, or of it was sturdy and solid. That lead me to cancel mine at the last minute (along with rumors of delays in shipping from the retailers I ordered from).

Same with the Little Big Planet 2 bookends/game ends. there's conflicting reports of whether it's cardboard or if it is just supposed to LOOK like cardboard because of the type of game it is. comments of the devs "joking" that it was cardboard (referring to the type of game I guess).

This leads many people to not have the proper info on deciding to throw down what can be in excess of a hundred bucks for some of these collector's editions. Now some people may not have trouble laying down that kinda bread, but I'm not one of those people. lol

Is it too much to have them come out and OFFICIALLY say "this is what it looks like, this is how much it weighs, this is what it's made of."?

Release a video with one of the devs unboxing it or something.

maybe I'm the only one who feels this way, but I think it would go a long way to easing minds of people who are about to throw down a lot of money on what could be cheap garbage made out to be more than it is.
