Ok first off i noticed that there are two strategy guides for fallout new vegas and im wondering if its going to be a big difference between the two of them ? im guessing the collectors edition of the guide is going to have more details or something like that. any ideas on what the differences will be ?

The Collectors Edition is a Hardcover the regular edition is Soft Cover. The price difference at Amazon is only $4

EDIT The CE has 32 extra pages of goodies, see the next post.

The CE Guide also comes with 32 extra pages with concept art and behind the scenes info from the devs.

That collectors edition looks neat. I never use guides honestly, I use them as a reference on occasion but that's it.

I might get that though since it's hardcover.

I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition Guide. I think it was a religiously great choice.

does the strategy guide come free with ce or do you have to pay extra? ( i bought mine on game stop so will i still get it there)

I'm still not sure if I'm gonna pre order the CE Guide or not... It sure does look great in that hardcover and I'd rather have the vault boy on the cover than the NCR Ranger. But at the same time I wanna learn about the wastes on my own without reading stuff in the guide here n there... in hope that they release a new guide wich covers all the coming DLC's by the time I've had a few play throughs.

Why is it so hard to choooooose!?

I heard the CE hardcover comes with a BIGGER pullout map..... any truth to that?

For me a bigger map would only be frustrating to try to look at. The FO3 Guide map was frustrating enough, lol. It gotta be way more detailed for me to be interested (wich I bet it's gonna be)

GAAAAAAH! I might just order it aswell.... hmm.... damn I'm too hyped! lol

if the regular eddition contains the map then I'll get that

Im going to buy the game 1st, Ive got rent and bills to pay next as unfortunately i dont live at home with rich parents so the guide i will buy probably after Xmas!
But the guides do look great and i do want!
