The only thing I want from the CE is that 112 lore book. If it's $5 more, I'll probably grab the CE. Dunno what I'll do if it's more than that.

I'm gunning for Collector's. Hope it isn't like $90 or something...

I will buy the Collector's edition because it's packaging looks godly. Hell I could slip the thing onto my bookshelf alongside my copy's of Jane's recongnition books and it would look just fine.

Nevermind the backstory book might make a good read.

I prefer the colour scheme of the regular edition but I'll probably shell out the money for the CE if it's not too hard to find.

All depends on the price. I'd say 10-15 bucks for the fancy edition would be fair, but much more and I'd have to decline.

I've already pre-ordered the CE for PC. It was $10 more than the regular version. I'm looking forward to the Pocket Guide, but I really want that coin!

10 Bucks? Sounds good. Guess I'll stop by the local gamestop and preorder that sucker.
Funny, the xbox versions are all 10 bucks more.

$60 for collectors?

That's like GIVING it away as far as I'm concerned. Considering the time I put into Morrowind, well worth it.

I pre-ordered the collector's edition way back in October, when the release date was still late November. Ah, memories. There's a screenshot in the new PC Gamer of a multi-towered walled city on an island in the middle of a lake, with the water reflecting the city and the sun. I stared at it for a few minutes before I realized I was drooling.

Now if only there was a serial number on the coin that you could enter to start the game with one more Septim than the normal starting amount.

Just like an Elder Scrolls game should!

Hell yes Collector's Edition. The updated 112 page Guide to the Empire will be an interesting read, I still have the one that came with Redguard hanging around somewhere, it'll be interesting to see where it got updated and what remained the same.

Morrowind was a good game, if a bit too easy, even with the expansion packs Tribunal and Bloodmoon, if Oblivion can live up to it I believe it'll definitely be worth my $$.

I think you're forgetting about the UberWoodElf in Tribunal, the one that hit you up for money, and when you refused to give him anymore, came back at you couple of days later with full suit of ebony armor. That fucker was hard, and made me truly hate wood elves.

Dude, he wasn't hard. You obviously didn't uberfy your character before starting Tribunal.

My second character, who has handled pretty much everything else in Tribunal, wasn't uberfied and got killed repeatly. But my first character, who bitch slapped Alemixa with one hit, still had trouble with him.

That annoying Wood Elf definetly hits hard. Took a while to wear him down the first time I fought him, but if you have a nice absorb health enchanted weapon, like I did some time after that encounter, you'll kill him quickly. Hell, you'll kill anything quickly. :P
