Collector's Edition DVD Toolkit Videos -- worthwhile?

[DarkSideofOZ]

They are indeed well worth it if you plan on making maps/chars. Its a no brainer, 3dBuzz did a fantastic jb with 2k4 vids, and I would assume they will be just as good if not better this time around.

You would indeed learn from it, I got the 2004 CE and the same company does the material for both (3DBuzz) the very first part is usually for beginners though I learned some stuff from it, later once focus on one aspect of the engine at a time, it's highly educational and I recommend it greatly.

Remember that the new engine and editor does some things differently, and UT3 is the main game for me, it's the kind of game you buy the CE of imo, the UT series is where I've put the bulk of my gaming hours.

I'm wondering whether I should buy the vanilla version or splurge and buy the Collector's Edition.

Is the DVD with the Unreal Editor toolkit video worthwhile for a mediocre but experienced mapper? Would I learn anything from it, or is it a very basic introduction for Unreal Editor noobies?
