    I buy colletor's editions of MMORPGs, excluding WoW expansions.
    Also Age of Mythology. For some reason I bought the Limited Ed. of Elemental which was a huge mistake. Haven't even picked it up at the postal service place yet.

    I never bought CE's. However, I demand a physical copy of any game I have and I never bought any digital release. I'm not interested in the extras but I must own at least the discs, and I will ignore digital distribution as long as the market allows it.
    I bought many (if not most) of my games well after release, so I have many compilation boxes or repackaged copies. Two examples are the GSP Fallout collection (that advertises the games as "action packed"...) which has an annoying GSP autolauncher but is full of goodies (artwork, the Tactics P&P game etc.) and the Sold Out release of Deus Ex GOTY, that loads its own horrible launcher before the game, increasing loading times and shortening my patience (luckily there's a simple workaround).

    The Twitcher, because they had no copies of the normal one left and gave me it for the normal price. And Oblivion, because I hadn't yet had my faith in gaming shattered and thought it was the sequel to my favourite game and deserved my money and blaalrawetasetrh

    Collector's Editions? Nope, don't have any of those.

    I do have some GOTY, Gold, Deluxe and Special Editions of games, mind you. Also some compilations, re-releases, trilogy and dual-pack releases, but no CE's.

    The closest thing I have to a "Collector's Edition" is the Might & Magic 6 Special Edition I have. It comes in a big box, with 2 CD's containing not only M&M6, but also M&M1-5 and even Swords Of Xeen. But that's not the real Collector's Edition, because there's also a Limited Edition of the same package, where the CDs have a hologram on the cover, plus some extra goodies IIRC.
