Introducing the Uncharted 2: Fortune Hunter Edition. It’s the game’s fancy-pants version, and includes a copy of Uncharted 2, art book, collector’s case and a replica of the game’s mysterious, ancient artefact. Sounds good. Only, there’s a catch.
See, Naughty Dog & Sony want this to be a genuine limited edition deal. Not something anyone plonking down $US5 at GameStop can get their hands on. So they’re going to be giving them away in competitions on the PlayStation.Blog, the game’s multiplayer beta and in PlayStation Home.
Interestingly, we’ve been told that in addition to the stuff outlined above, the Fortune Hunter Edition will also include codes for special downloads… not sure what those would be, exactly, but they definitely suggest some kind of rare downloadable content. Multiplayer skins/weapons, perhaps?

Our censors have a hard time with the DEPICTION of knives in games, let alone allowing them to be sold to gamers.

they’re releasing their own special edition with different packaging and codes to unlock perks in the multiplayer.
i read on the US PlayStation blog that they’re only giving away like 3-5 copies of the fortune hunters edition…
