New All-time favorite
2 of 2 found this helpful Note that I purchased the XBox One Limited Edition just to get the art book and soundtrack, since currently the XBox One Limited is the cheapest of the limited editions. (I do have an XBox One, but at the moment don't even have it hooked up.)
For the game, I played through Steam on a Windows 10 PC, and Life Is Strange has replaced The Longest Journey as my all-time favorite game. So emotional, so affecting, so real, and a very good answer to Roger Ebert's contention that video games aren't art. (To be fair to The Longest Journey, it too was a good answer to that contention.)
For first time in my 50+ year life, I'm reading fanfic and watching people play a game on YouTube (after I'd finished it; I like to see how they react to certain scenes).
Here's a very brief excerpt from a review in the Swarthmore college newspaper, The Daily Gazette, because it perfectly encapsulates how I feel after playing this game: "It’s been days and Max and Chloe are all I can think about. I miss them. I miss their wonderful dialogue, their cute interactions, the way Max always wants to protect Chloe and the way Chloe brings out the adventurous side of Max. Their story was a harrowing and emotional experience, but also a beautiful one."
As for the limited edition items, the soundtrack is routinely excellent. It includes two favorites of mine, Alt J and Amanda Palmer, and introduced me to some other excellent artists, some I'd heard before but never really noticed, e.g., Sparklehorse, and some I'd never even heard of, e.g., Mud Flow.
The art book is well made, but it's utility is a little less than compelling for me.
