One of my biggest complaints as a gamer and collector in Singapore is that we hardly get any pre-order bonuses from local stores. Unlike retailers in United States, countries in Europe and Australia who hand out plenty of pre-order bonuses, local retailers don't have much to offer. Of course, the reasons why it isn't feasible to have such a policy in Singapore are plenty, some more valid than others.
Whatever the case, it's great to see Playstation Asia adding pre-order bonuses for their games, after the God of War promo they did a few months back.
So what are they giving it out for pre-ordering The Last of Us?
A Limited Edition T-Shirt and an Umbrella!
Not sure what's on the back of the T-Shirt and I can't figure out what that thing on the umbrella is.. but still great to have something to show for pre-ordering.
The Umbrella will be given for all The Last of Us pre-orders at any Playstation Focus Shops. For the T-Shirt, you will need to place a pre-order on the Collectors Edition. Of course, while stocks last.
These are the 3 different editions available at local stores.
Steelbook Edition (SGD $69.90): Will come with a Steelbook as shown above and a Naughty Dog Interactive Sticker Sheet.
Special Edition (SGD $94.90): Comes with the Steelbook and Sticker Sheet like the Steelbook Edition. There's also a Mini Artbook, Mini Comic, Dualshock 3 Skin, Postcard Set, Sights and Sounds DLC pack and Joel and Ellie sackboy costumes for LittleBigPlanet.
The Collectors Edition is the big one but comes at a price. At SGD $219, you get an upgrade to a Full-Size Comic and a Full-Size Artbook. Steelbook, Dualshock 3 Skin, Postcard Set, Sights and Sounds DLC Pack and the LittleBigPlanet Costumes are all in there.
There is also a Survival DLC pack exclusive to the Collectors Edition and the highlight... a 12 inch Premium Statue by Project Triforce. They make some really good quality statues so fans of the game will really want to pick this one up.
