i thinking about pre ordering the skyrim collectors edition becouse iv bourt all the other like fallout new vegas, fallout 3, oblivion this one is a bit more exspensive


what do you think ?

You might want to get on that!

In my opinion the only reason im getting it is for the art book, I could care less about the DVD or the statue. And yea I know I could download scans online but I like having the book and looking through it when I'm bored at work or around the house.

YES,It is expensive but the items broken down are worth it,I have have mind pre-ordered and paid-off also, and IT IS SKYRIM !!

Absolutely, I think the statue is well worth it, plus a 200 page art book.

That's a totally subjective question. It's worth it to me, but that doesn't mean that it will be worth it to someone else. It depends on your finances and how much the contents appeal to you.

The price they are charging for it makes it not worth it to me. So it's like Lady Evenstar said. It's worth it to her, but not to me.

i suppose it a really nice thing to have in a games collection

No, it is not worth it.

PVC figurine is low quality. The CE game is just the regular game in a different cover and a dvd of how they made they game that you can just youtube in a few months. The book is nice but will be half that price 6 months after the release, same with the cheap dragon statue. This is marketing for profit, and it works. But it won't come off my dime. As I have said in the past. My cousin runs a comic book store and sells PVC figurines, and is baffled by the $150 price tag they are asking for.

Just pre-ordered and paid in full mine yesterday, I dont care to much about the statue I just want the production dvd and art book!

Is it worth the price?, no, did I purchase it?, yes.

I don't really care about the art work book, so in my opinion, no. I'll buy the statue thing online later on.

I would love to have it but I can't. Being unemployed at the moment I shouldn't even have pre orderd Skyrim, but I couldn't help myself.

^ Best answer and my opinion also.

The statue will be on eBay in 6 months for around 20-30 bucks.

:thumbsup:

No.

Without the statue a CE with art book is typically around ￡40-60.

The statue is imo just a waste of money.

Personal opinion to be completely honest. I think so but others don't. If YOU don't think it is then don't get it.

Hell no, but everyone has a different definition of 'worth'. So it's completely subjective.

depends how deep your dedication to TES is

No, Every time I buy something like that it ends up on the shelf, collecting dust.

Two worlds collectors edition? Never used.

Fallout 3? Sits on a shelf and never gets used.

Fallout new Vegas, been opened once. Now I just install from steam.

If you have the money and a display for it, I guess it might be worth $150, but I just want the game.
And If I really wanted a collectors edition, pick it up later off ebay or something for less then the new price.

Yes it is worth it, at least in my opinion. I plan to display the statue next to my Skyrim theme xbox, I think the two will look great together. I might even mod the statue with LEDs for background lighting.

Yes the collector's edition is worth it

i really wanted that plushy dovakiin helmet they gave out out PAX that would of been cool

but the Real reason i didn't buy the CE like i DID do with Oblivion is it had no CD soundtrack.

In all of its lossless dynamic glory.

I mean Soule's music is TES, so pass from me.

yes

I think a less objective way to ask the question would be, is the Collector's Edition overpriced? Because I think that, this time around, we can all agree that it definitely is, especially since the Fallout games gave you so much more for far less. Now, that said, the community seems very split as to whether or not they still want to spend the extra cash on something they know should be sold for a lot cheaper. When I first saw the CE, I swore up and down I would never buy it, because I viewed it as a form of price gauging on Bethesda's part. I still think it is, but have caved and pre-ordered it, because in the end I support companies that put out quality products, and because the cost-to-gametime ratio is so much higher for these games as opposed to, say, other $60 games that last 10-12 hours, I don't feel as bad dropping the extra caps.

There's no question that it is overpriced. This isn't even debatable. They HAVE to make a profit on this and flux the price or it would have been pointless to offer the CE package to begin with.

However, if you have deep pockets, or this purchase does not hurt your wallet (or purse maybe), then go for it.
