Title: Retro City Rampage DX PS4 physical copies being re-released by Vblank.com!
Post by: aliensstudios on July 20, 2016, 06:45:21 pm
Retro City Rampage DX, one of the most illusive (and expensive) PlayStation 4 physical titles is being re-released due to popular demand, you can check the link out here: http://vblank.com/20160719.php#retail (http://vblank.com/20160719.php#retail). The orders go up Friday for anyone interested on this page: http://vblank-entertainment.myshopify.com

Apparently, the PS4 version is getting new cover artwork as well as new disc artwork to separate it from the original print run of 2000 copies. It sounds like there are 3000 copies going up for sale which still means the print run is relatively low. It also comes with a physical box (no disc) for a PSP version of the game and a download for Retro City Rampage on the PSP (in 2016, really?) which is pretty cool too.
As someone who owns a copy of the original print, I don't know how happy this makes me because it will decrease the overall value of it, but hey, at least Vblank listens to its fans. Just thought some of you might be interested, especially if you missed out on this one the first time around.

I heard about this game the first time around but didn't pay it any mind, but I love the PSP box addition. Will definitely be trying to add these items to my collection on Friday.

I wouldn't worry too hard about it. This re-print is getting different cover and disc art. You're first run will hold its value.

I'm pondering it, but I don't really care for the game, and I already own it on Steam, 3DS, Wii U, PS3, and Vita.  Shit, I even have the MS-DOS version from Humble Bundle.

This time around, it will have an open print run to ensure that fans won't miss their chance again, for foreseeable future. To reward the dedicated fans and collectors who pre-order it right away though, the first 3,000 copies boast a gold cover variant and special bonuses!

 
The first 3,000 copies are individually numbered and will include:
•a PS4 retail version with a gold logo cover variant
   
•a PSP display case & manual
   
•Digital copies for PC, Mac, Linux & MS-DOS
(Steam Key)

pulled off of the original article site. this will be an open print run so you will be able to get one regardless but the first 3000 will have the golden title, be individually numbered, and come with the stuff mentioned above.

It's live! Just got my copy ordered!

Edit: Order # was 2008, don't know if that corresponds to the actual # on the PS4 copy or not.

I got caught up with work and probably missed out on the free portable digital version, but my order was #2390. Hoping that means I was in the first 3000 at least.

That'd be nice. Hoping that it started as 2001 to indicate the second print  ::)

This makes me hopeful:

in other words they made it so the first 1000 people can play the game and keep it sealed at the same time!!!

Part of me hopes the codes are printed and put inside the sealed case.

Not a single one of my PS4 games is sealed. This may be the first and only game that stays sealed honestly.
