10 Most Sought-After Collector's Editions In Gaming

3. Assassin's Creed 3 Charity Edition

Here's something we don't see every day: an incredibly rare collector's edition with the sole purpose of raising money for charity. Sure, we can probably file this one under "marketing towards the social do-gooder dollar", but when the end result is a sizeable donation of over AU$5000 from Ubisoft Australia to the Sydney Children's Hospital, the underlying marketing objective is hardly relevant. It's not a one way street either - for the philanthropic gamers who's winning bids secured them one of only eight such packages made available, these represented the Holy Grail of Assassin's Creed 3 ultra-collection. The core of this collector's delight is the Assassin's Creed 3 Freedom Edition, with its 24" Connor statuette and other memorabilia and exclusive digital content. This alone should have people reaching for their wallets with charity in mind, but Ubisoft sweetened the deal but dishing out a selection of premium items to make any Assassin's Creed fan weak at the knees.
