THQ announced a special "Austin 3:16" Collector's Edition for WWE 13. The CE offers up plenty of extras related to Attitude Era star Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Those of you who didn't watch pro wrestling back in the nineties might be wondering what "Austin 3:16" is. Allow me to recite facts I've just learned from Wikipedia. Apparently Stone Cold was feuding with Jake "The Snake Roberts," at that time a born-again Christian. After beating Roberts in the 1996 King of the Ring, Austin utter the words that will echo throughout eternity: "You sit there and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didn't get you anywhere! Talk about your psalms, talk about John 3:16... Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!"
So yeah, Austin 3:16. Likely not in the actual bible. Here's what's included in that Collector's Edition:
-Exclusive foil packaging featuring embossed Stone Cold Steve Austin skull
-Exclusive collectible art card personally autographed by Stone Cold Steve Austin
-Exclusive Stone Cold Steve Austin in-game attire: red skull t-shirt (circa 2001)
-Exclusive Stone Cold Steve Austin in-game ATV ring entrance
"Stone Cold Steve Austin: The Bottom Line on the Most Popular Superstar of All Time"
-Copy of WWE ’13 videogame
-Access to WWE Hall of Famer and WWE ’13 global pre-order offer Mike Tyson playable character
Is there a terrible, terrible catch? Maybe. At present, THQ has only announced it for the UK. Gamers in that country can pick it up from Game and GameStation. It seems plausible that this bundle would be available elsewhere. I mean, c'mon, Stone Cold has a few American fans too.
