MetalPaks Banned in US. Court ordered

[SwiftDeath]

Thought some people might not have seen this although most movie steel collectors are probably well aware

Basically US court has banned sale, distribution and production of Viva metalpaks in the US as it violated steelbook patents

I for one an happy as now EA can't give me a metalpak but give Europe a steelbook ME3 anyone?

Apparently a lot of movie steel collectors were upset because metalpaks had good designs? I've never seen one for VGs I wouldn't rather have in a steel

By the way I know this was back in January :P

It was the Viva Metalpacks that were banned. Star Metalpaks are different so the danger of getting those is still there. :pooryou:

Never liked metalpak's anyway. Much prefer steelbooks!

I've prefer steelbooks anyway but you have to feel sorry for the guys that collect metal packs.

Its a bit silly if you ask me,don't have the American courts have anything better to do? I can certainly think of a few things.
