Metal Gear Solid Ultimate HD Collection Zavvi World Exclusive only 4000 worldwide

[bulkhead72]

Hey folks. I'm currently on vacation, and have been out of the loop for some time. I had a couple of quick questions about this item:

1) Is this still limited to 4,000 copies worldwide?
2) Are the new pre-orders on Zavvi any different from the original 4,000?

Sorry if these questions have been addressed before. I paid $300-ish for my copy on eBay a couple of months ago and am wondering if I should be kicking myself

cancel your ebay copy and get a refund. This is no longer zavvi exclusive as Australia will be getting the same item. The new pre-orders are the same meaning:

no more numbered steelbook, except the older pre-orders get a platinum copy of mgs4 (PS3 only), probably a move to screw ebay sellers

Thanks - appreciate the info! I have reached out to the seller, requesting a cancellation.

where LESS than a month away,...still NOT SOLD OUT ANYWHERE!!! U.K. or AUS, plus being that it's just weeks left now,...WHERE ARE THE REAL PICTURES??..all we have on both seller sites are "mock ups"...i got a gut feeling that, because the steelbook will be inside a box, so the steelbook really does'nt need to grab one's attention at retail, since the box itself will be doing the sales, i think it's gonna be a stickerbook

twisted, willing to let me open one of your copies for pictures? hahah.. hmm don't think Au version will be stickerbook..

I kinda wish there was a pre-order bonus...like a PSN Voucher to download 'MGS' for PS3's order

twisted mate it won't be a stickerbook lol the only sticker books I've ever come across from console games are "freebies" from inland Europe which IMO are worthless as there not proper (can make your own!) so don't worry it will be a proper Steelbook unless you can name another CE which come with a Steelbook inside?

Cant remember there being a Stickerbook inside a CE but there was a Vanquish stickerbook which was an actual limited release

@customer_b

I have been informed that they are not sticker books, and that if you pre-ordered you should have received an email already. Either way, if you still have your pre-order on the site, you’ll definitely still receive a copy of MGS4.

Hope this helps

Hi there… I’ve just been told that the PS3 version will indeed be G2 sized rather than DVD sized.

Many thanks

oh ok apart from that it's all Steelbooks, proper steelbooks no way on this planet MGS would be a stickerbook lol only stickerbooks are freebies from European game shops - which they probalay make themselves under some sort of licence (can we buy plain steelbooks and slap a sticker on front please to drum up abit of business as we don't sell much compared to the us!) which is true.... could you imagine a US retailer offering stickerbooks lol all of my "single bonus" Steelbook collection is from the states as they know how to do it proper! Wish there was a proper saints row and dead island Steelbook as I loved both of them games I would said uncharted but that asain Steelbook is gorgeous!! unlike the cheap stickerbooks produced in Europe as freebies
