Fallout 4: Pip-Boy Edition - Xbox One

This is a great game and collectors edition. If you are a fallout fan or a video game collector in general then this is a definite BUY!

I have been a fan of the Fallout gaming series from the get go. As a game collector for years I had to have the pip boy edition to add to my vault of gaming goodies. Well, I needed two of course, one to open and one to keep (it's sick, I know, but I can't stop). The Fallout 4 Pip Boy arrived and I cheered and gasped as I held the Vault 111 deployment box in my hands. It felt nice and sturdy, the weight let me know it was filled with goodies and I couldn't wait to see inside. Two clips on the sides open the box up and there it all is. The steel book is really nice, it looks tasty parked up next to my other Fallout titles. I like the look a steel book adds to a gaming collection. The Poster is really nice and honestly it will live forever folded inside the steel book. The pip-boy guide is a good informative and comical read. I am always smiling when I see the happy little Vault Boy demonstrating the ins and outs of the fun to come during gameplay. Anyway, I love love love my pip boy! Yes, there is an app (that works flawlessly btw) that you can load on your smartphone and then place your phone inside the pip boy and actually wear it. I have tried the app, but have not used it inside the pip boy while gaming. To me it's just an awesome novelty. I often times become very animated during gameplay and can only imagine the damage I could cause to myself and all nearby if I was wearing this juicy bit on my appendage. So on my shelf it all sits and I am happy to have it.

Having been previously disappointed with theFallout New Vegas 'collectors' edition, when I saw this one had a wearable pip boy, I was stoked. THIS EDITION DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The box is BIG and the Pip-Boy is accurate to scale the one used in the game, plus it's Fallout 4. I've been playing this game non-stop and while it can be overwhelming from the sheer amount of stuff you can do, it's truly an experience to behold. The pip boy accessory is a welcome bonus. Once you get the app and find the right foam ring for your phone, once the unit is closed it's spot on. You can swipe through your inventory, maps, radio stations on your arm and the in-game action happens almost immediately. Truly an impressive set released by Bethesda.

Originally wanted it for the ps4 but it was sold out. The pip boy is cool if you have an iphone or a smaller android phone. I have a Galaxy Note 4 so I was not able to utilize the pip boy as intended. I had to use my friends iphone to use it. In reality is it worth the money? Not really, unless you are a fallout fan, which I am. The pip boy is just a plastic looking case which you wear on your wrist. The game is awesome though very fun.

If you loved Fallout 3 then you will love 4. It takes what made 3 outstanding and runs with it. The gunplay is solid and VATs is still outstanding to use. My only gripe is the writing is poorly done but I do not play FO games for the scripts. I play them for the world, choices/decisions and gameplay. FO4 exceeds in those three categories!

im super ecstatic about this release...glad i pre-ordered this collector's edition...my only gripe is that it didn't come with a coupon for some Nuka-Cola or some Cram... the game is ridiculous...too much fun, and it's guaranteed to be the next relationship killer as opposed to Madden or Call Of Duty... "Sorry, babe...I'm not going out for dinner...i'm preparing for life in the vault..."

First off, the game is awesome and it comes in a steel case. There are some collectors maps and posters which are nice with great quality. The vault case that everything comes in is INCREDIBLE and my favorite part of the whole collector's items!!! Where it loses 1 star is the PIPBOY accessory itself. It looks extremely cool, and is supposed to use your phone as a second screen. The fit isn't perfect but after quite a bit, you can finally get it to fit. However, taking it in and out is a pain. It also doesn't fit well on my arm. Because of this, it is easier to just use a tablet for the second screen. If you only want to display it, then you will love it because it comes with a display stand as well. But if yuou want to actually use it, I'd pass on this.

When you think about paying 60 dollars extra only for the pipboy, it's a pretty sweet deal. Read some reviews saying how it was cheap online but what do you expect on something like this. For what it is, it's pretty cool. The box it came in and stand alone are worth it as a memorabilia piece.
