Bought this to add to my collection of collectables. Received this item damaged. This is the 3rd item from Bestbuy online that I received damaged. Not sure if I will order any collectables again from Bestbuy online. They did handle my concerns well.

Beautiful graphics, great game. Got it on clearance so great price. Steelbook is cool. DLC codes are expired (hence the clearance price). Hat is silly and awesome. great for laughs. Box came smashed so don't look for a collectors item.

Having purchased the collector edition on the PS3 back in the day, needless to say I was excited to roam the holds of Skyrim again as the Dragonborn. Best Buy's edition includes an exclusive steelbook and a Dovakin mask along with the remastered version of the game. It includes all of the previously released DLC along with slightly updated graphics. loading times are still a thing. That said it's still Skyrim and can easily consume large chunks of your time without you noticing. Still a great game! And a great deal at BB too!

I would rate this game the highest possible star rating in history if I could. I have been a huge fan of the Elder Scroll series for since Morrowind, absolutely will play the first 2 in the series, but the story line to this game is the BEST in the entire series! The game play, the scenery, the story.... this and Fallout 4 are hands DOWN! the BEST games Bethesda has brought to date! Thank you Bethesda for such amazing epic tales!

I am new to this series, but that doesn't take away from enjoying the game and the story. I love the graphics. The game play is very good. The story is very good, and I am enjoying getting involved in it. I am also fairly new to Play Station and video games. The controls are easy for me to learn and operate. The game is not too difficult for newbies like me, but not too easy for experienced players.

After countless hours of playing the PS3 version of skyrim, I decided I haven't had enough. I've played quite a bit of the PS4 version to date and am very pleased with the improvements. Load times are a fraction of what they used to be. Scenery is more vibrant. Glitches are still there, but come less frequently. Game is as addicting as it used to be, but much better playability.

From time immemorial, Playstation users have had to put up with glitchy performance in various version of Skyrim. Whether it be player models missing heads or previously killed dragons that teleport into various areas, haunting you, it was always one thing or another. Finally, these problems are a thing of the past. Now, is it perfect? No, because even though this new PS4 version allows us to draw on mods, those mods are limited due to Sony software policies. Sony, stop shooting yourself in the foot and get over your paranoia. Mod greatness is a discrete button press away and these guys are scared to death of pirates. Great game, could be perfect!

This comes with Skyrim Special Edition, a steelbook, and a fuzzy hat. I was able to pick this up cheaper that the Special edition on it's own. If you can then this a steal. Otherwise I would not pay too much above what the special edition is going for. I don't see the hat being appealing to most, but there are some who would really like the steelbook. The game is the same game from the ps3/360 but with all the dlc and a slight graphical boost. It is worth mentioning the box that holds all three items was pretty beat up. Some people are bothered by that. However, the contents had no damage.

If you played this game for the ps3 then you will love this revamped version. The graphics have improved a bit and you now get an option of using mods. If you are a trophy hunter like me then you will have to beat the game first and then apply the mods. Overall it is a great collectors edition for the ps4 and worth every penny.

Always been a huge fan of The Elder Scolls games. Got Skyrim on 360 when it came out and played so much and loved it. Then came the remastered version and it blows away the 360 version. Never got to play the dlc on 360 so the dlc on the remastered version is a huge plus

I recently picked this up since it was on clearance. The steelbook is beautiful and the beanie is really neat. Even if you already own the game, This is still worth picking up for the $20 or so price tag. You can always give that extra copy to a friend.

Well worth the sales price and even current price! With all of the mods for PS4 now, this game is a must-have if you love the Elder Scrolls series on Playstation 4 consoles! And the mask is fun to wear in the winter while playing this game! And scaring the nephew. :P

Skyrim is one of the greatest games from the last generation of consoles and here it is remastered for the current generation. This particular edition comes with the DLC included as well as a few extra goodies exclusive to the Best Buy version. It comes with a nice steelbook for collectors and also has the Dragonborn mask, which is a neat addition. It's not amazing quality, but for the price, it was a nice toss in item.
As for the game itself, Skyrim is an amazing and expansive open world that is further enhanced by the fact that mods are now available on console. It is still one of the best open world games out there and this remastered version looks and runs great. I'd recommend it highly to anyone that missed out on it before. For veterans, I don't think there's anything really new in here that's worth a second purchase.

I love this game but seriously, how many systems can you port this game to? How long before its on my smartwatch or my graphing calculator? Oh well...the game is awesome, the DLC is amazing. The mods are pretty good too.

I had played this game before on 360, but it is so much more beautiful having been remastered. Great story, gameplay and abilities! Pretty much everything you want in an rpg. There is a reason it won a ton of awards, lol

If you missed Skyrim the first time around or were late to the show, this is the best way to experience it for the value. Now with the supported 4K patch and PS4 Pro support the experience is better than ever before.
