    I went last minute and when I say last minute I mean Christmas Eve to grab a few things i forgot. I went to Best Buy and was going to purchase this game no matter the price. I didn't look and when I went to the cash register they said $45!! This is basically a $100 game with the bundle that it came with and it couldn't have made me happier. OH and of course the game is FANTASTIC!!

    The PS4 version looks and runs much better than the PS3 version.

    Pretty much exactly what you'd expect, but it looks a little clearer, and loads faster. The load screens in particular are definitely worth it. If you don't have the game, this is the version to get. If you LOVE the game, it's worth considering an upgrade. If you're indifferent, maybe wait for a sale if you sorta want it.

    I own this on the Xbox as well. I decided to purchase this for my PS Pro - worth it. You can see a difference on the pro with a 4k tv. The game comes with all the DLC released for Skyrim. Hundreds of hours can be put into this single great game.

    *Disclaimer* Skyrim is my favorite game of all time. Skyrim Special Edition is a great game for both new and old players. For new players, the game has a great plot and you can put many hours into the game without getting bored. For old players, the graphics are better and you can also install mods. Also, the game is still great.

    Skyrim is one of my favorite open world RPGs, and the Dragonborn Bundle is a great package. It includes an upscaled version of the original game, a nice SteelBook with different artwork on the front and back as well as the inside, and a cloth helmet that my younger son really enjoys. Excellent package for fans of the series.

    I've already modded and completed this game on the PC back at launch 11/11/11. I've never played or seen it on a console so I was interested in seeing this with enhanced visuals for console and 4k support with PS4 pro on my new Sony xbr 4k tv. It's really still amazing for an outdated engine and I highly recommend this game.

    I never got to play this game when it first launched, but it is still a really good game, got it on sale for $20 and it’s well worth it, comes with all dlc and a steel book, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid rpg if you don’t mind graphics because you can tell the game it’s old.

    Need Elderscrolls on the PS4 instead of PC or the other platforms? Go for it. This edition was cheap and can with a fun hat and cool steelbook.

    Same game, better graphics. And, if you're into that sort of thing, MODS. I bought this merely to have it on my shelf to play when between other games. It was a great plan, until I got sucked in again for another 200+ hours of gameplay. Buy it. Play it. Replay it again. Then replay it again.

    Game is much more immersive thanks to the much needed graphics update. Frame rate speed has inproved dramatically in comparison to ps3 version. Plays much smoother in combat as well. God rays and new water grapichs give an ethereal look to an already spectacular game. Definitely recommend it!

    This game has soaked up many hours on the old game systems, and this remaster makes it feel like I am visiting with an old friend whom has matured greatly since we last met. Stunning visuals. The mask/hat is a great toy that my son wears constantly whide running around with his foam sword.

    Best value for the money

    I don't think the Skyrim remaster is perfect: it looks a little better than the PS3/360 versions, but still runs at a very lame 30fps. Had this remaster been upgraded to 60, this review would've been 5 stars. However, the value in this package is insanely good. A very beautiful steelbook alone makes it worth it: the hat is kind of goofy but welcome nonetheless: I think I would've preferred a Dohvakin Funko or some other relevant collectible instead of the hat. Still, this bundle's an amazing value.

    Even after 5 years this game is still amazing and with the enhanced visuals in this Special Edition it's a plus to the eyes. The addition of installing community mods on consoles are always nice too since my PC version is running with tons of mods to look the way I want.
