Not in particular order, bought two of these during the summer 2012:
Tactics Ogre Art Works - Yoshida's illustrations are awe inspiring - the game sprites at the bottom are icing on the cake.
Valkyria Chronicles Design Archive - The game is awesome already and should be in every PS3 owners game library. The character, equipment, and word design is phenomenal from concept and it's art style translated into the game.
The Art of Mass Effect Universe - Very controversial series, but the various works and concept art of the game's alien races, environments, and armor designs, you'll know how much they dedicated in crafting the trilogy.
Honorable mentions:
Anything from Soejima (Persona) and Shinkawa's (Metal Gear/Konami) art books... Looking at their art will always make my mouth water.
