Default Re: Battlefield 4 Future Shop Exclusive Steelbook (XBOX 360/PS3/PC)

I'm pretty sure the Gamestop metalpack is G2 only, but if someone has a confirmed G1 of it, please correct me. I was not aware of the second metalpack--the one that looks like the EU steel. It seems to be identical except for being a metalpack. That's just like what happened with MoH: Warfighter, where one of the designs had a metalpack and a steelbook version. I also question if that is a metalpack? The front picture could still be the steel, and the inside picture is the same inside art as the US metalpack. I'm not 100% sold on that thing existing. lol

People on ebay will constantly miss list and generally fuck up what they are trying to say--out of laziness or ignorance lol. From your first sentence, those are surely mis-listings. For your link, the title says 360 & PS, and when you look at the pics, you can see that it is the same-ol' G2 metalpack.

Eh, not counting metalpacks, it only has 2. Even with the metalpack, though, it's only at 3. It's pretty in line with BF3, which had 3 steels, too. I hate it that Killzone 4 has no steel, though. The Killzone steels are always so cool!!

Battlefield 3 had 4 steelbooks with 3 different designs (Futureshop G1, Gamestop Northern Europe G1, Europe Collectors Edition G1+G2) 3xG1 + 1xG2.

I don't count different sizes of the exact same steel as different variants or extra steels. I only count how many different ones. So a game with 4 steels that each have a G1 and a G2 version would only be 4 in my eyes. It's all a matter of semantics, I suppose.

This is true but I believe zaku counts the CE G1 and G2 as one because the share the same design.

Yeah, definitely the G2. Well, at least I only have 2 choices to choose from in terms of which steel I want for this game now When I get my FS thread up and running after the holidays (selling quite a few things I believe) I'll probably just toss this in as a freebie - until then it'll annoy my OCD-ness sitting in a stack of G1's. Thanks for the info!
