I'm going for "Hardened"

What is the true bargain between different editions of video games? Most notably for games that have been long awaited. Are they truly worth it to get the full experience of the game, or is it simply just a cash in on some worthless features? Yes and No. There certain editions that simply boost the appeal of the game, but never really boost the value of the game itself. Such include the recently released collector's edition of Batman: Arkham Asylum. The game itself sets the bar so high, that all of the extra goodies of the game seem completely unnecessary. While others do a great deal of justice, such as the various editions of the Halo games among others. And there are some that do neither bad nor good to the game, such as the prestige and hardened editions of Modern Warfare 2, which I'm tempted to pick up. What sometimes fumes us gamers that actually rarely happens is that these editions are released months, maybe years, after their regular counterparts. So in the end, one question remains..........is it worth it?
