I just hope future shop does not pull off something like the Mass Effect CE and Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City, never hit my shelves :(

Awesome :) I assume you can preorder the standard game to get the steelbook, yes? How much will that be XD ? Tryin' to figure out if I can afford it before I fully commit to it haha xx

The game will probably cost $59.99 + taxes, around $69 taxes in, so £43.5

Steelbook will come for free with the pre-order/purchase of the game.

Shipping the 2 items wouldn't cost more than £12 or £13.

Still plenty of time ahead of you to save :banana:

Kind of do want, but I already pre-ordered the collector's edition.
I'd like to see the cover art.

I'm willing to help you guys get a copy if you want one.

Mediocre at best, could have been so much better :(
But I will steel need it :(

yeah i agree - don't really know what that gray is all around the steebook just looks annoying to me - would have preferred a more simple understated one it's just like they threw everything on it at once...

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 12:15 PM
Yeah, it looks a bit messy and stuff. Need to have a good think about if I still want it - that and if I can still afford it haha - May is a hugely crowded month for me xx

True that. A simple steelbook in pure black + the official Diablo 3 logo would be bloody awesome. With the red effect similar to the asia darkness 2 steelbook would be even better

I actually like the Steelbook a lot, very Diablo 3ish. That grey part might be more black? It is a really bad picture lol

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 03:38 PM
If the greyish part is more black then it'll look better, I do agree that it is a bad quality image though.

Never know I may see a proper photo and be like OMG :drool: xx

jugolicious
04-01-2012, 03:52 PM
I hope the black patterns are embossed, middle/red part debossed, and the charcters/words are embossed :drool: dreaming though

I also hope that the middle artwork has Diablo in it =)

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 03:56 PM
Yeah, if it's detailed like how you've described, I definitely think I'll like it, especially if it has inner artwork - but the way it is right now, the grey is horrible (so hopefully will be black) and also, is it just me or does the whole steelbook look, kinda, foggy? Hopefully the images/artwork is much more clear and crisp xx

jugolicious
04-01-2012, 03:57 PM
I definitely think the fog is due to the horrible scan/picture, but lets hope so =)

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 03:59 PM
Hope so :) Hopefully a better image will be released soon XD xx

davidw
04-01-2012, 04:00 PM
Also is it not weird how it just says Diablo and not Diablo 3?

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 04:01 PM
It does say Diablo 3 david, the three lines through Diablo are the III xx

jugolicious
04-01-2012, 04:02 PM
I think David means the spine.

It might just be a prototype? I hope haha

I REALLY hope this is not a Diablo Collection haha

vhal_x
04-01-2012, 04:06 PM
Ah yeah, I'd say it's probably just due to being a prototype image xx

davidw
04-01-2012, 04:53 PM
I did mean the spine by the way - thanks anyway :)

hi. I was looking to try to get my hands on one of those steelcases, but future shop isnt offering them for pre-ordering online anymore.

What exactly do you mean by in store only as of right now? Can i get a pre-order with steelcase if i do it in store?

jugolicious
04-18-2012, 08:20 PM
@kodos i heard some stores were giving away steeelbooks for the pre-order of the game, mostly the collectors edition. they may give more away during the midnight launch

kodos
04-18-2012, 08:30 PM
ah..i see. Thanks a lot. I'm not too interested in the CE though. :(

Guess I can still take a trip down to FS and ask if i could get a steelbook with a pre-order on the normal version. might get lucky.

biscuitnoir

Went to FS earlier and no luck :( They haven't even received the Prototype steel yet!

I really can't wait for the steel to appear online!

jugolicious
