The only art books Ive ever had was Gears of War and Metal Gear Solid: Legacy Collection.

The only reason I had those is because they came with the collectors editions of the games.

Not counting collector's edition stuff or strategy guides, I have "The History of Sonic the Hedgehog" and "The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia." The Sonic book is really good, but I think the Zelda one is just so-so.

I've got one sealed hardcover edition of Hyrule Historia [the green one] and one that I opened - haven't really read it, to be honest. I pre-ordered the limited edition one too but I guess I was too late.

I've also got the special edition hardcover version of the Megaman x Megaman X Official Complete Works.

I wish Nintendo would release a complete encyclopedia covering the Famicom Disk System/Famicom/NES/SNES and all their games from each region pictured with details, including interviews, concept art etc.

The Japanese Shadow of the Colossus "making of" artbook. Back when I was really into the game I bought everything associated with it. Figures, soundtrack, artbook, etc.

I also bought the Arkham City Special Edition that came with one (that also, stupidly, doubled as the game case) but I spent the extra money for the Kotobukiya Batman statuette.
