Of all the collector’s editions that we’ve had the misfortune of posting about, this is probably the worst. Deep Silver has announced the UK premium bundle for Dead Island: Riptide – and it includes a bleeding pair of knockers. The publisher claims that the grotesque, er, bust is the title’s own “take on an iconic Roman marble torso sculpture”. It just looks like an ugly mess to us.
Assuming you're mad enough to purchase the package, you'll also net a steelbook edition of the game, a set of collectible art cards, and a weapons modification pack. The monstrosity will cost you £99.99, and is available to pre-order now on the Xbox 360. There’s actually no mention of a PlayStation 3 version, which is probably for the best. Nevertheless, we’ve contacted Deep Silver to find out what’s going on. We're not necessarily anticipating a sane response.

What the heck!?
A lot will be made of the crudity of this thing, and that 'shock-value' is no doubt what the designers want. Unfortunately it just looks crap.
@KALofKRYPTON Who would put this in their home?!
Plenty of people I would think. Ten years ago I'd probably have found it humorous enough to chuck it on a shelf with some other figures and such.
Now, I just looks at the fact that even in the promo shots it looks such a crap sculpt and paint job. Also it's a hundred quid.
I wonder why the first Dead Island isn't on PSN? It's the kinda of game I would like to have downloaded.
Excellent! I've been in the market for a rib-exposed-decapitated-limbless-busty-chick. They're so hard to come by without, licks lips creepily, making your own...
@Confused_Dude ARGH!

I don't even... Who... What...
This is one of the worst by-products of gaming ever conceived.
If only it came with an American flag bikini.........
@belmont As if they went with not having Supes vs Bats for the statue!
WHY?!
Woah, this really IS hideous.
@Confused_Dude HAHA!!!!
That is in very poor taste. It must be a marketing plot to raise controversy.
Umm, where's the rest of her?
