Ubisoft's detailed the $79.99 Splinter Cell Conviction collector's edition set for release in the US.
UPDATE: Ubisoft's confirmed to CVG that this pack is US-only, and a seperate UK collector's edition will be detailed later.
The pack - which is oddly different to this one said to be hitting Australia - includes a Splinter Cell art book, decal stickers, comic and a pair of in-game items.
The collector's edition also includes a USB drive "loaded" with exclusive content, including concept art and storyboards.
We've left a message with Ubisoft regarding the Euro release. Here's the official blurb, via Kotaku:

So is that a release date I see there 23.02.10 (well an american one anyway) This game has been along time coming hope it doesnt disapoint after Double Agent cos I thought that game was awesome (my best yet)
Some of the stuff on this is cool, though I might preffer the other one depending on what the figurine ends up looking like. bBt personally I hate when developers up the cost of the CE/LE of games by adding a themed USB pen when chances are I can get a bigger/better one for cheaper.
Oh and they should stick to the traditional method of putting the bonus making of stuff onto a seperate DVD As it's cheaper and what's the point of putting it onto a USB pen you won't be able to use seen as it's already filled with stuff?
this collectors one commin to the uk?
Well it does say that the collector's edition we'll be getting will be different from this one, and honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we get the worst side of the stick as usual
