5.0 out of 5 stars
Awesome collector's item. Not really for actually playing it..., August 17, 2009
This review is from: Game of Thrones: D20-Based Open Gaming RPG (Deluxe Limited Edition) (Hardcover)
I have this edition. On its own, it's a beautiful game in a beautiful book. True, it's not supported and the company has gone out of business, and the only way to get one is to write to GRRM and beg and hope he has any left for sale (I think he found some recently) but you don't buy this game to play it, you buy it for the collectible factor and the artwork. It's a thing of beauty.
The reason for the price here, (and I'm pretty sure the 2-star poster here didn't know this) is that this is the leather-bound, silver edged, deluxe uber special edition of doom (Mine's signed by GRRM himself! Woot!) The standard version is not nearly this expensive.
If you want a rare collector's item game product, this is an excellent choice. If you want one to play, go for the new Green Ronin game. It just won 2 ENnies.

Wonderful book., February 15, 2009
This review is from: Game of Thrones: D20-Based Open Gaming RPG (Deluxe Limited Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is a thing of rare beauty for gamers and/or fans of Mr. Martin's world of Westeros. It includes gorgeous paintings of famous scenes from the first book in his "A Song of Ice and Fire" series, "A Game of Thrones". Even if one is not a gamer or is not into RPG's, this book serves as detailed reference material for the subject matter.
Highly recommended.
