Is the "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Guide Collectors Edition" a good purchase? I'm just wondering because I just ordered it and it should be here in a couple of days.

I have a game guide published by Prima. $27.00, almost 1 1/2 - 2 inches thick, 655 pages, and it's a large book, not some small paperback. Has everything you need to know, and need help with, including walk throughs for the quests.

So, I'm betting the CE is probably better.

Good luck.

no, if you are talking about that interactive thing they've put out?
i was told by a worker that it includes an extra unique weapon.

? The CE has no aditional gameplay features.

I love mine. It's the same as the standard except for the sweet art, hardcover, and ribbons to hold your place.

I know it's great however my cat irrates me when she sees the ribbons as something to play with.

Also has great maps and descriptions once you figure out how to read the book. I love it!

I got and love it. The way it's set up it would be sorta hard to run into spoilers so that's a plus. It info in it that I would never know if I didn't har it. Example: redgaurds find more gold. Little things like this are why I love it and there are a ton of them. It also has a very awesome paper and online interactive map. The paper map is huge and has every single location. The online interactive map is a very detailed map of Skyrim. It's what the map in the game should have been.

There is one other reason you should buy it. It's so big. I know sounds dumb right?, but I ask anyone that has the hard cover, it's has a very cool feel to it. So for 30 bucks it's well worth it. You really can't go wrong. There is only one other thing I would spend 30 dollars on and that is of course the GOTY of Oblivion. You've probably already played that so I guess it's the book then.
