That has to be a prototype, lol look at the generic font on the spine :rotf:

EDIT: oh and "BioShock Infinite has been delayed until March 26, 2013, Irrational Games has announced." :D

futureshop is getting lazy with some of these..like the new super mario bros u..not only does the spine not due justice to the title because it's not accurate..but also the artwork and design is random..just mario characters slapped on random places in and out..plus the plain looking assassins creed console ones they did..now this one..which seems like it took them a couple of mins to come up with a design..as long as it's a steelbook with the name of a popular game..they beleive it will sell.

Future Shop is not getting lazy guys. Remember, they have absolutely no power in deciding which artwork or format it'll be. It's always the studio's decision.

I would actually like to see the original artwork from Bioshock 2 in Steelbook edition, and on the back have the chick looking sexy :-)

Such a disappointing steelbook. >.< Could have been so much better... :(

Wait what, is this true?

This might explain the very different designs between steelbooks, its not coherent at all.

I quite like it, the text on the spine is shitty but other than that I like it.

a very good question, maybe has something to do with the game itself? MFG in the german language sometimes stands for "regards", "Greetings"

Apparently is is an In game company:

http://bioshock.wikia.com/wiki/Fink_Manufacturing

Is is possible to get the steelie on its own?

dahein
01-17-2013, 07:10 PM
as far as i know it is not.
Gamestop usually never gives out steelbooks without the full game (which must have been preordered before)
If you get lucky and the gamestop itself got more steelbooks than preorders you can still get it after release, but only with the full game :/

Not really worthit given I'm getting the songbird edition, then

anyone tried preordering the game and then returning it without the steelbook?
i know that works here for EB games if you do it within a couple of days.

Doesn't work with Futureshop, since the steelbooks are on the receipt (hence the barcodes) xx

01-18-2013, 08:54 AM
No idea, those ones don't have barcodes I don't think, but they might not be as lenient with returns xx

The conditions don't mention that the returns have to include all pre-order items...

What do you mean? You don't get the steelbook without buying game and you can't give it back without giving back the steelbook and they don't take the game back if there is an online code.

I_BE_WILL
01-18-2013, 11:46 AM
I've done it before and never been asked for the pre-order items.

SBCollectorAl

Well I don't want to risk that because if the game isn't sealed and there is an online code they don't take it back.

Maybe in australia they are not so strict about it but in germany don't know if they will do that especially if I order 3 or 4 copies and then want to give them all back.

I_BE_WILL
01-18-2013, 11:53 AM
I had my code emailed to me, twice. It's hard to return an emailed code. But you are probably right in saying they are more lenient here, and yes multiple copies would look suspicious.
