[Molasar]

[ferrari100]

I'm having a nightmare trying to set up an account with these guys? Can anyone help?
Thanks

[ferrari100]

There's another release for it in France.

Here: Darkness 2 France (http://www.game.fr/Product/Default.aspx?SKU=104296)

By the way, is this steel confirmed G1 por G2? as beautiful as it is, I won't get it if it's G1 :(

[ferrari100]

Looks like G2 from the image. Not that i'm fussed, I collect both when it comes two video games.
Game.fr definitely don't send to the UK.
I paid the extra and ordered to from Austria

Does the Austrian website require you to pay at checkout or does it take the cash just before release?

Thanks! :D

[biscuitnoir]

Well I'm lucky enough to have a friend in France to get it for me, but only if someone can confirm it's G1, otherwise pass, as beautiful as it is.

[ferrari100]

I paid with paypal. They took cash straight away. Price included additional 2.50 paypal charge (roughly).

[Lemur]

We'll be getting a steelbook edition over here for preorders at selected shops. Yay! :bday:

[gokilz]

Yay!:lmao:

[Lemur]

The steelbook we'll get here looks different. That's the only info I've found so far. :scratch:

hello,

my English isn't the best, but I read that you think there are two Steelbooks for Darkness 2.

No, there are no two steelbooks. There is only the Steelbook from Austria.
When you pre order in France, you will get the Steelbook as bonus, or you buy it from Austria (gamesonlay.at) and you get only Steelbook with included game.

[Mandras]

and only Gamesonly.at have the rights to sell the Steelbook.
It is Limited to 8000 pieces!!!

There is an asia exclusive steelbook as announced by 2k Games Asia. That link i gave is their facebook page.

The only question is whether all are the same steels or whether the asia ones we're getting are different. From that teaser pic on the facebook page, it looks like a different steel. :shrug:

[Mandras]

I have read that it is an exclusive gamesonly.at steelbok. The publisher Take 2 give the rights to Gamesonly.at
Don't know about Asian Steelbook but in Europe it must be only this one.

[Ayiu]

I don't think that this is an exclusive gamesonly.at steelbook as you will also get one when you pre-oder the game at Gamestop.de or game.fr too

The Asian steelbook looks indeed a little bit different...and it wouldn't be something new if there are more than one steelbook available.

If I'm right there is minimum purchase of steelbooks. So maybe all these store have 8000 available :shrug: that wouldn't be limited at all.

[Mandras]

http://spiele.mmog-welt.de/111878-darkness-ii-unzensierte-limitierte-steelbook-edition-ausschliesslich-bei-gamesonly/

Here they say, all 8000 Austria Steelbooks are for gamesonly.at.
I bet there are more for each country.

[Ayiu]

seems that it might exclusive to Gamesonly.at but only in Austria. The news is also very old. So maybe the publisher changed its mind.

I'm more wondering about the name "Steelbook Edition" It sounds like a proper edition and not only a pre-order steelbook give away. So maybe that's the difference. All other countries will "only" get the steelbook as a pre-order bonus and Gamesonly.at will get the steelbook packed in a proper Edition :/

and the cover from the Asia Steelbook looks like the cover from the limited edition

http://www.wouldyoukindly.com/wp-content/uploads/darkness2limitededition.jpg

[Lemur]

Asia preorders include steelbook + lenticular sleeve which is slightly different for Europe/US.

http://www.zombits.co/2kgamesasia/images/limited_02.jpg

Now those idiots just need to confirm what the steelbook looks like instead of this fucking teaser pic.

[Javius]

In Spain the steelbook is also available in game.s

If anibody want it advised me by PM
http://www.game.es/Product/Default.aspx?SKU=080073

[gurpswoo1]

From all the News post and information, like Ayiu said, It looks likely that the Gamesonly.at version is a proper release with the contents maybe factory sealed inside.

All the other looks like a separate pre-order bonus,

I am comparing it to the German Rage Steelbook, then again I could be completely wrong.

I have contacted Gamesonly.at, hopefully the come back to me with some good news.

[Vikingo82]

I will try to get some for trade here for any of yours people...hehehe...

I will have mine for sure...hehehe...but for sure I will have more to trade...

[gurpswoo1]

I got a reply from Gamesonly:

Here is what I sent:

Hi there

Can you tell me if your game Darkness 2 Steelbook editions comes factory sealed, or is the steelbook a separate item



I got this reply:

Dear Mr Gee

thanks for your E-Mail.
It's factory sealed but the game and the steelbook cover are separate items.


Kind regards,
Andrea Prinz
GamesOnly Customer Care



So it's not a one piece edition like the German Rage Steelbook edition.

[Vikingo82]

In Spain comes appart too...

Comes with the pre-order of the game.

[gokilz]

lemur, have u checked with local gameshops yet?

apparently, only ps3 n xbox are given out steelcase as preorder bonus. at first it was all platforms, i wanted the pc. oh man :(

[themidlandmaster]

Austrlia gets a pretty cool preorder bonus:

[thefunk007]

The fact it's not a complete package means I am giving this a miss!

If the game was sealed inside I would get it right away :-(

Hey Dean I like the look for the AUS version!

[ferrari100]

Yeah dean. im liking that too. anyone else in the uk want to do a group import to save on shipping? If any aussies willing to help that is.

[gokilz]

is it the same as what we're getting in Singapore?

and is it G1 or G2 Amazon.de is selling? :S

[Lemur]

Amazon.de should be G1. I think this should be the same as the austria/france copies.

The one we're getting in Singapore I have no idea. The shops I checked with only know it's a steelbook bonus. No other details.

It has to be G1, no one else is getting the G2 release.

And the site/store game.fr is not even certain they'll be getting the steel according to their customer service, I've called them myself.
