Demon's Souls is hands down my favorite game of all time. The art book/soundtrack CD are both very nice and well done. The strategy guide is very nice but it is NOT hardcover like the picture shows. The picture clearly shows a hardcover on the strategy guide and even shows the 2 edges of the cover extending slightly beyond the end of the pages but again this is very misleading. Infact the strategy guide is softcover and the 2 edges of the cover are FLUSH with all of the pages. I'm pointing this out so someone does not purchase this game based upon the picture and think that they are getting a hardcover strategy guide because this is not the case because the picture is wrong. Despite the fact that the strategy guide is softcover it is extremely well done and contains very useful information that helped me out greatly while playing this game.
Only buy this game if the price is right. Please do not pay 4 times the retail price that I paid for a new sealed copy when it was released in Europe last year (I live in the U.S. and imported it on the release date). Everything in the strategy guide PLUS much more can be found by simply visiting the demons souls wikidot website (google it).
If you are a collector and want this strategy guide then I think you should definitely buy this game at a reasonable price only. My only complaint against the strategy guide is that it provides the address to their demon's souls wikidot website on a few topics because they ran out of room (presumably they needed to keep the number of pages low enough so it can fit in the Black Phantom Edition box which includes the game case, artbook/soundtrack cd, and strategy guide).
If you can live without the hardcopy strategy guide then I recommend that you buy the normal U.S. release of Demons Souls (it is more than 1 year old now and pretty cheap) and just use the demons souls wikidot website (google it) as your strategy guide! You will thank me later when you realize how much money you saved by doing this.
