Star Trek Online Collector's Edition Boldly Awesome

$30 More for the Final Frontier

by Coop

Gamestop has listed the innards of the Star Trek Online Collector's Edition, for all of the fine folks who feel like spending a little more money on a game that already comes with a monthly fee to play the nerdiest game of all time. You know, because being a nerd isn't enough in this day and age, and you need to prove your geek credibility by spending $80 on this game in February. To play with other, like-minded outcasts, talking about Klingons and stuff. Here's the deets:

 

  • Deluxe Packaging: Futuristic 3dX holography set in a high quality brushed aluminum finish. Heavy duty construction with magnetic closures and nested compartments for all components.
  • Deluxe Manual: High end, hardbound, art book, manual, and disc case in a single, elegant package. “HD Printing” on over 40 glossy pages of exclusive art from the Star Trek Online Universe.
  • Communicator Badge: High quality cast metal design based on the in-game badge model. Fully 3d Sculpted with recessed burst and curved contours.
  • Guest Passes: Credit card style buddy passes to invite three of your friends for a ten day trial of Star Trek Online.
  • Red Matter Capacitor: A unique item that charges up and delivers extra energy to all of your ship’s equipment for a short time. A device that, when used, gives you a small bump in energy, has a long recharge.
  • Next Generation Uniform: Uniform Options from and the Next Generation. The timeless look worn by Picard, Data and Riker.
  • “Deep Space Nine” Uniform: Uniform Options from the “Deep Space Nine” Series. Grey shoulders, on a black uniform, just like Sisko, Worf and Dax.
  •  

    Delux packaging? Bah! That gets thrown away within moments. Deluxe Manual? Useless! That crap is outdated after the first patch goes live on launch day. To be honest, I'm not too sure if I like this one. I mean, I'm going to buy it, because I hate money almost as much as I love Star Trek, but it lacks... the thing. In-game stuff is cool, and I'll absolutely be rocking the Next Generation Uniform in and out of game, but it needs one, special object to -- wait, does that say "Communicator Badge?" Like, a real one? Made of metal? Never mind, it will be money well spent, and you'll all look like suckers when I'm pressing my fingers onto this baby whenever I make a phone call. Jealous? You should be.

      Totally Preorder'd. I'm going to be a Vulcan captain, or if you're J.J. Abrams, I'm going to be a Vulkan captain. I should be a chick in this game too. I'd totally be the bitchy T'pol type. Nobody knows what I'm talking about do they?
