Limited Run Games

Recommended Posts

The first round of the SOR4 Limited Editions went pretty quick, within 5 minutes, and the PS4 version went quicker than the Switch ( granted they're making 1500 for the Switch versus 1000 for PS4, but demand's usually greater for Switch stuff ).  I haven't been buying LRG stuff too long, but that's one of the faster sales I've seen, the other being Metal Slug ( I think it was 3 ).

PS4 was sold out in 2 mins, sans the Vinyl set. It's a nice set and the game has been a blast.

Can we expect the statue to be a game character and not that they pull the SOR4 logo letters standing on a platform or some similar goofy bullshit that would be a total letdown.

What? They have a picture of what the statue will look like, it's supposed to be 2 characters. 

Edit: look man: MockUp_CE_Banner_StreetsofRage4_SWITCH_1

Issa nice statue.

p.s. If they had a collector's edition with statue, soundtrack, artbook and poster I'd have been all over that. I can't stand this kitchen sink approach with a bunch of kitschy extra packaging. Don't need a steelbook, 3 different cases, a metal cartridge or a stress ball. Oh well.

To be fair, they no longer have the picture of the statue on the LRG website.

Here's what LRG released earlier. It might change of course.

But i'm not sure what to think of this limited edition i mean there are cases going into other cases all over the place. It's kind of chore housing all that shit.

Now that you mention it, totally true 😄

Did anyone order the monstrosity that was the SoR4 LE? It's probably a good investment, on a small scale, but I just couldn't be bothered personally.

 

I ordered Switch Brawler Bundle, just as a tribute to the great franchise. But i like SOR4 as well.

Has anyone been kinda...meh? On the releases lately? I'm not really buying anything from them...maybe I got burnt out but all the RPGs are feeling/looking the same or have a super boring plot line.

It's actually kind of nice not having to wake up/stay up till 7 am and get anxiety trying to beat others to get a copy of a game...and of course my bank account is super happy. I'm actually not going broke at the end of the month anymore...feels great!

Depends on your taste I guess. Their Blasphemous and SoR4 CEs have been amazing.

I started buying at Saturday Morning RPG for ps4. I burnt out on these limited releases. I love physical games and I actually don't buy any digital at all. But I can't buy $3 mobile phone games for $40 anymore. 

 

I'm still in for big ones. Also I really love Special Reserve games. They go the extra mile with bonus goodies and a beautiful outer box. I can justify their releases more. I still have like 10 pre-orders across the various companies but I skip like 75% of releases.

I only buy the stuff I would have bought if it was a normal retail release for the same price, which only happens with stuff I actually want to play.

Celeste and Panzer Dragoon?  No brainers.

Layers of Fear?  Sure, I'm a horror guy.

Mary Skelter? Eh, I have enough JRPGs in the backlog, so I'd never play it.  Pass.

I’m burnt out too. I was never going for a full LR set so it doesn’t bother me, but these constant Kemco RPGs are so tiring.

At some point I had to look at the fact that I’m paying $40 + shipping for a game that is like $7.99 most places else. I know it’s the physical vs. digital aspect, but add in the multi-month wait time and I’m just burnt out on the majority of LRG releases.

I definitely think they found the perfect model. NO need to get up early and fend others to just try and grab a title! 

I actually think LRG has been producing too many excellent titles the past few months. For me these include

Shadowgate

Real Myst

Panzer Dragoon

Black Bird

Brigandine

SoR4

It gets pricey 🙂 but seriously, a wonderful selection of games, and I only purchase games I want to play.

I collect for PS4, so I didn't have a chance for Myst or Panzer, but they've still put out great things like the two Jedi games, Indigo Prophecy and next week Shantae.

For both PS4 and Switch - open orders 🙂
