I have collected video game art books for a long time. I just love concept art. Following are some new favorites:
Ray Lederer - I really admire his concept art for Skyrim - http://raylederer.com/
I feel that he creates the right atmosphere perfectly - and that the rest of the team really captured the look and feel of his concepts in the actual game.
Peter Mohrbacher - concept artist and illustrator at CCP North America - http://www.vandalhigh.com/. I really enjoy the surreal quality of his works.
Sean Andrew Murray - concept artist for Kingdoms of Amalur, a new RPG I just got my hands on. http://seanandrewmurray.com/
I like his detailed, illustrative style. The characters really seem to come to life.
Arnie Jorgensen - lead concept artist for Star Wars the Old Republic. I could not find a personal portfolio site for Arnie, but there is a great gallery of SWTOR concept art here: http://www.swtor.com/media/concept%20art
I am amazed by the variety of work and how much thought seems to go into each design.

Very interesting. The one for Kingdoms of Amalur reminds me of things I used to dream... except in mine, the city was made of
