Last night during Microsoft’s E3 press conference, the audience in attendance were more than a little excited to see the highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 on display once again. To make matters even more interesting, Keanu Reeves, benevolent saint and the human equivalent to the bountiful smell of dust before the rain, graced the stage with his presence to announce that he will be appearing in CDPR’s next open-world role-playing game.
During his brief speech, Keanu revealed the release date for Cyberpunk and as earth-shatteringly exciting as that is, it’s not what I want to highlight in this post. Rather, I want to speak about the man, Peter Sark, that was so taken by Keanu Reeves’ appearance that after the actor described the game as “breathtaking”, yelled out above the drum of the crowd, “You’re breathtaking!” at Keanu. Reeves, clearly feeling bashful at the man’s enthusiasm, returned the compliment to the man and then opened it to the entire crowd in what was just a really wholesome moment.
Now it turns out that Sark will be receiving a free copy of the collector’s edition for Cyberpunk 2077, courtesy of CDPR. The developers, famous for often giving away free stuff to dedicated fans, were able to track down Peter Sark and provide him with the bundle that looks…well, it looks dope as all Hell. It’ll set you back $250 dollars and will include a custom storage box, limited edition statue of V, the game’s protagonist, pins, stickers, badges, a key chain, physical maps of the city and obviously the game itself. I guess it just goes to show that being kind and yelling “You’re breathtaking” at random people could prove more fruitful than you expected. As long as the person is Keanu Reeves and you’re in a crowd and you’re E3 and not some stranger on the street. Please, don’t do that.

I’m not even buying the base game. I don’t do steam punk style games.

I am inclined to splash out on the CE. What worries me is that if you don’t grab it now, you will miss out. I am apprehensive though. Imagine splurging R4600 on a game that is dump, although, I am hoping that will not be the case due to CDPR history with developing amazing games!

I’ve been saying for ages I want to get the Cyberpunk 2077 CE, I was super happy with my Witcher 3 CE, but this is just too much. Good thing I don’t like the statue that much or I’d have some serious regrets.

Yea, not the greatest statue in the Cyberpunk CE, have to agree. Makes it easier to skip out on for that insane price.

I also consider the statue as the primary reason for getting a CE. My Dragon statue from Skyrim is one of the best CE I ever invested in.

I was sold on it until I saw that price. R4,600 is just a little crazy.

Even R2000 would be okay. But for that price, I can get the Nintendo Switch which I really want.
Captain JJ
June 10, 2019 at 16:23
That’s exactly my feeling too. I would love a Switch…and a console kind of outweighs buying this CE.
I was willing to go up to R3k even, but this is too much.

I remember when my dad used to complain that R50 was too much for those totally legit PS1 games.
Man, R4600 is too damn steep.
Edit: I literally bought my Skyrim collector’s edition on day 1 for 10% the price of this. R450 odd rand at BT Games back then.

Wow… Not only was he called breathtaking by the second coming of Jesus himself, but he also gets an amazing collector’s edition for what could be the greatest game of the coming decade.
Fuck this guy.

I know CDPR did this in good spirit and all but this to can have negative effects,
Imagine trying to watch a presentation and every random person starts yelling stuff in hopes of receiving free goodies.

Well most of us noticed that the first 3 rows of people at Bathesda were paid off to go crazy like some hooligans. So this is kinda a lesser evil 😛

Closed my eyes and just bought the CE. Sure, not the greatest statue but I will be damned if I wait it out and not being afforded the opportunity to own it. The Fallout 76 CE was sadness, plain and simple. Bethesda got me good there…
