I think starting with 2005-2010 is a great idea... I would make it an every 5-years thing as opposed to every year after that...

That you be a great idea!! I would love to help you with that!
What if you publish at wikipedia? I think there is a method to print the articles on paper from wikipedia, I have read about it somewhere.

And this is a homepage to calculate the value of your videogames

This is great! All the people that would like to help! Fantastic.

What we need to do:

- Collect data and pictures of the Collectors Editions year by year. Starting with the first year.After completing a year we can start the next one.
-Write a little article for each game with the content that came with it.
-Designing the book (pages) itself with a program like Indesign or something. Also the design for a cover has to be made.
-We need a server or something where pictures and data can be uploaded

I just did a quick Photoshop mockup of a logo and put in an image of a Assassin creed with a poor attempt at a reflection. As a very crude example, is this front cover layout any good.

Surely you jest. I'm nowhere near qualified to tackle such a project. And believe me, without calling names, there are some very hardcore 360 collectors on this forum, and I ain't one of them.

I am E.O.C. (equal opportunity collector)

But most importantly, I am lazy.
