The UK PC Limited version has the same extras as the 360 and PS3 (as shown on the Game.uk web site), so I expect the USA PC game to have them too.
Which retailer did you order from?

I very much doubt PS3 dlc codes will work for a PC game.

PS3 codes WILL NOT work for PC

Gearbox said some time ago that it's possible they may release all the preorder DLC for purchase later on

Gamestop, and their pre order does not have the extras that the PS3.360 version. I could be wrong I did pre order it almost a year ago.

The extras were only confirmed a few months ago, so wouldn't have been mentioned a year ago anyway.

They're listed on the site now:

I must say I am not a fan of the new whacky alien designs. I have voiced my displeasure on the Gearbox forums many times. They feel way too cartoonish/comic bookish for my tastes.

Agreed, but I really like "The Raven", looks awesome!. The rest, ehh, but whatever, I think it will still be pretty fun

I tend to censor myself alot lately on the Gearbox forums. But I am still optimistic and excited

I think that's my least favorite one so far to me. I just hope the game turns out to be worth the wait. I've been waiting since the announcement for this game and if it's a disappointment, may the video game gods have mercy on Gearbox's soul!

May the fans have mercy on Gearbox's soul hahaha!

It's a game still and they have to add variations of different enemies to keep the game play fresh . Wave of wave of the same old warrior would be fun to us , but not to the average gamer . It's also important to get the word out about this game . If you want more from the aliens franchise , you need to speak with your wallet . I'm buying an extra copy for a buddy as well .

Not sure about in the US, but in stores over here you can often still get the pre-order bonuses when buying the game a week or more after release day, as they're usually on a leaflet inside the sealed game box.

Most games just have similar looking humans to shoot at. You do not actually need cartoonish aliens to shoot at to be able to have fun in an aliens shooter. AVP2 was amazing and didn't. FarCry and Crysis were amazing games but the outlandish mutant apes in FarCry and the squid aliens in Crysis were almost universally disliked. They were distractions.

Just something to think about.

I am far from being somebody that nitpicks over extremely minor and slight inaccuracies of an iteration of the canon aliens like some people are, but these are just outlandish. The crusher reminds me too much of a rhino or a bull, not an alien for example. The spitter looks like it has a firefly on its head. The raven wouldn't look so bad without those silly spikes sticking out of its head, but it just feels too far off sorta like the awful iterations ADI did for A:R, AVP, and AVP:R.

Based on what I've seen so far they should have spent a lot more time working on getting the animations right for the aliens instead of coming up with cartoonish caricatures. To me it reeks of a misuse of time and money given what we've seen so far of the game. Other things needed more a lot more attention than alien variety. I don't know how the project lead can on the one hand devote extra time on conjuring up these new alien variations and at the same time ignore how awful the animations for the aliens are. The way they move is pretty important.

Can some one post the pic of the raven alien. I can't find it any where.

The back of it looks like it's started to melt and droop. The spikes on the head remind me of the silly spiked gremlin in Gremlins, a dimetrodon, or fish spine or something. The head looks too far off center and the back of it looks like a bug butt/abdomen.

Stupid forum limitation won't let me display the image.

Loving the attention to detail in this thing!

Now if the Marines can go into the Hadley's Hope bar and find cans of Aspen Beer I'll die happy.

Nice attention to detail. I must admit, I was intrigued by the story trailer. Can't wait to find out what's going on.

Anyone else getting the collector's edition?
