An extensive list

HMV U.K. Exclusive Games

HMV are one of few large retail outlets who can produce limited edition items to help promote sales. Items are known to include slipcases, postcards and exclusive Special Editions. Here we will list all known items bundled exclusively with HMV games.

It was mostly common for HMV to bundle an exclusive slipcase with games, but other items are known to exist which are all now slipping away into obscurity. Sadly not a lot of official documentation exists on the web and it seems a lot of exclusive items were not advertised outside of stores, making this a difficult list to compile. However, time has been taken and all 100% confirmed information has been noted with the date, retail price and a short description of the exclusive item. Anything unconfirmed has been listed at the end, if you can help with any information then please log-in and leave a comment below. We have covered every known HMV exclusive ranging from PC to NDS to PS3 and more. As time goes on we will make effort to update entrys if new information becomes available.
