DAILY MANIFESTO

Unboxing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Collector's Edition

Posted on Wednesday, November 9 @ 14:34:30 Eastern by

As promised, we've unboxed our Collector's Edition of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, complete with cheesy TV salesmen Home Shopping Network styling on my part. In the video above, we've got one gigantic box, one massive dragon statue, a big art book, and the premium paper map of the land of Skyrim.

Oh, and there's a disc with the actual game in there somewhere too.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will land on retail shelves November 11th, 2011 for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. The Collector's Edition runs $149.99. Stick with GameRevolution for everything you need in the lead up to the launch of Bethesda's massive game. We'll also have plenty of post-release content to help you find your way around the world and ready yourself for hand-to-hand combat. GameRevolution's review will go live tomorrow at 5:00 AM PST.

    The live-action Skyrim trailer should end with that shot of Nick saying "Level 39 BITCHES!".

    So you have to wonder, was that plastic dragon and art book REALLY worth 90 dollars? I mean, I liked it back when if there was a collectors edition of a game, it was maybe 10 bucks more. Sometimes they went all the way up to 99.99, that's pushing it. 40 bucks better get me something amazing. But 90 bucks for that dragon. NINTEY. I mean, honestly.

    I think a big part of that money goes to cover the cost of shipping that big ass box to stores.

    In my opinion? No the dragon wasn't worth it. Gigantic plastic **** like that is never worth it.

    That's all you get for one hundred fifty dollars? A bit of a rip off.

    "A bit of a rip off. "

    I'd hate to see what you think a big rip off was.

    Oh btw the video was very... very misleading "it's very heavy" and i was thinking well **** maybe they went all out with the design... but... idk i guess mass production value would have dropped and then selling limited editions for 250 or 300 would have been out of the quest.... or would it? A gaint stone / metal / both dragon to look at while killing a dragon tempting.... plastic though! yaaa who can say will break with in a week cause of random stupidity or just bumping my god damn toe on the desk because my dragon shouting voice was parched and in need of a soda sound like?
