I believe the european ff13_2 is g1 on all formats in europe. g2 in canada. not 100% sure though. I reckon the ps3 version sold out sooner as its multi region. Unlike the xbox360 version of course. It seems to me that because the description at Zavvi for both formats say "variant" that means stickerbook. The AUS description does not and the pics backup the descriptions in both cases.

So this Zavvi UK package is basically a worthless box of junk? A cheap sticker on a plain steel case,they can suck my chubber.

YOU HEAR ME KONAMI? SUCK MY CHUBBER YOU CRETINS.

You just know it will be half price within a month. We have been sucker punched here people.

I don't quite get the hate.

£30 game
£20 art book
£10 t-shirt (apparently restricted to this edition only)
£10 stickerbook

seems ok to me TBH

Yeah its a good price still. Just the best part of it is not collectable. Anyone with a blank steelbook, a printer and some self adhesive gloss paper can make this stickerbook.

It seems as though profit making got in the way of offering something truly unique in the Uk

Well I'm sure it won't be that easy to copy - and the quality will obviously not be as high as they will be working with copied material.

I'd also much rather have a 'real' steelbook (esp having now seen the pics)...man the wait is killing me!!

well I guess perhaps it cost more to sell in the future if it's a real steelbook instead of a stickerbook

If this is a Sticker book I will send this back. No way will I pay for stickerlbook. I will get the Australian version.

They advertised as a steelbook, that is what we should get.

I assume "Steelbook variant" is their way of saying "Stickerbook" ? xx

Check the AU site listings.
No mention of the word variant there. But explicitely mentioned at Zavvi.
