Stranger things have happened

Rather bright and colorful though

Not entirely sure I like it

Exactly! Borderlands 2 for example. Looked like a Metal Pak from the original image for the Loot Chest Ed. Though it did say it was a steelbook, but still... Here's a Hig res image.

As I said above, just because it doesn't look like a steelbook, doesn't mean that it isn't. We'll know closer to release.

Speaking of release, when does Tales of Xillia come out? o.0

If the case follows the picture then it will certainly be a metal pak or at the very least not a steelbook

BUT there have been several times when a picture of a pre-order item/metal case is inaccurate

The amazon.de jumbo G1 steelbook for Heroes and Magic VI for example

Can't really be sure until someone gets a hold of one

Edit:Cosmic beat me to it and provided a better example and a picture to boot

I'll go sit in the corner and think about what I could do better next time......

Swifty the steelbook snob reporting for duty

lol I have a couple metal paks kicking around but they don't get treated very well

True enough. Also, the game is out August 6th/9th (US/EU).

There's always at least two crazy people, so you're sure to have at least one comrade... =P

Ah ok I'm don't really like the artwork personally but would get it if it was an actual steelbook

So for now it looks like it will be a metalpak or something

Isn't that strange though? Thought metalpaks were uncommon in Germany as they love their steelbooks
