Only 200 of these exist. That's not marketing language. That's math.

The Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Fortune Hunter Edition on PlayStation 3 is one of the rarest PS3 collector's editions ever produced, a limited run so small that most collectors have never seen one in person. Inside the collector's case, which comes autographed by Naughty Dog, you'll find a replica Phurba Dagger with display stand, a BradyGames strategy guide, an art book, the official soundtrack, and various downloadable content. The Phurba Dagger is the standout piece, a physical recreation of the artifact central to Uncharted 2's globe-trotting narrative.

Holding it makes Nathan Drake's adventure feel tangible in a way that screenshots and gameplay clips never could. Uncharted 2 wasn't just a great game. It was the game that proved the PS3 could deliver cinematic experiences that rivaled Hollywood, winning Game of the Year from nearly every outlet that existed in 2009.

Naughty Dog was at the height of their powers, and this Fortune Hunter Edition reflects that confidence. The autographed case alone carries significant weight for collectors, but paired with the dagger replica and that 200-unit production cap, this is grail territory. Most PS3 collections will never include one, and that scarcity is precisely what makes spotting one in the wild feel like discovering El Dorado.

If you know, you know. And if you find one, you don't hesitate.
