I think I could presumptuously blame EB for this and only EB alone!

My chaos theory: They received it completely factory sealed. They ripped out the shrink wrap, they slap on the AU ratings stickers over the printed PEGI ratings, then they leave it like that and pack it to distribute!

I see no point in this though, they just messed up a perfectly great CE that needn't to be ruined by being opened. The reason being...it was pointless to just place the ratings stickers on the exterior packaging when the game cover art and disc itself still has the PEGI ratings printed on it!!

So what was the point EB? Who gives a toss if the slip case cover has a sticker on it? When copy of the game doesn't and that's the thing that more likely to be resold or seen when playing the game?! It's a pretty moronic and convoluted practice that only brings disappointment and stupidity on their part!

It's not a rumour, that's how mine arrived and so did the copies from RtY. Mine was shipped from hq, Rty picked up all his copies from the retail stores...so it wasn't random or anything.
