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.

Got this for my cousin and she loved it. She loves playing these games and was so happy about getting the the neat stuff that came inside. The stand, pip-boy, steelcase, and the case itself. Awesome!

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!

Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition is Crazy Kewl

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.

Great RPG. If you liked Fallout 3, you are going to love this one. The world is huge and there is a lot to do in there.
Furthermore, the PipBoy Edition is amazing for the value. The box and the PipBoy itself are beautiful and well made. This is a must own for gamers collectors!

Amazing game with lots of gameplay, the pip boy is very well made, though not made for any phone with a screen bigger than 4.8 inches, the only phone bigger that would fit would be the nexus 5, my htc one was too long, looks great and does help a little when playing the game

fallout 4 has to be the best thing to happen in 2015. Pip boy edition is a must for any Fallout fan. Very detailed and can be used as a prop or showcased on a shelf. You can pop your phone inside with the Fallout App and use it as you play.

Fallout 4 is an immersive experience much like fallout 3, however with a more engrossing story as well as the introduction of a good crafting system and settlement builder. There are hundreds of hours worth of content here.

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.

This game offers endless hours of fun! The pipboy is a little too bulky to use while you are playing, but looks awesome on display. A must have for fallout fans!

I absolutely love this game. If you're a fan of the Elder Scrolls, you'll enjoy this too. I got beyond lucky by getting the Pip Boy edition, but once I got it home, it's very fragile. I used it a couple of times, then put it away because I was scared of breaking it.

I have been a Fallout fanatic for years and this game is by far the best one yet! The Pip-boy is a bit cheaper than I thought and it is a little awkward to wear and play at the same time but it makes a great decoration in the game room!

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.
