Default Re: Max Payne 3

Received mine last Friday, but forgot to post

I was really impressed with the double packaging that HMV used. Not sure whether this was intentional, or whether that's how they came, but I was happy that this CE was double boxed - Especially as they shipped via Yodel!

Not quite sure why my copy of the game was lying on top outside the actual CE box, but I suppose the CE was a generic bundle used for every country, and retailers had to add the game themselves.

All in all, very happy with this CE. As if we really needed another one with a huge statue...

I think the game is actually supposed to come inside, as there's a space for it, but the actual CE box isn't sealed. I would guess that this is so they can use the same CE for the UK, Germany, France, or wherever, and retailers can then insert their country's version of the game.

If they sealed the CE's up with country-specific games inside, then that would limit where the CE's could be sold. However, this way they can repurpose the CE's if need be to satisfy demand across Europe, as and where needed
