Thats disgraceful behaviour that is.

There could be nothing left of the boxes by the time they reach far away continents.

This has been one sorry episode from start to finish.

I spent today deciding whether or not to purchase this. I have little interest in compilations of ps2 games so it's likely I'll pass now.

Whilst I totally agree with the anger levelled at zavvi (why was my packaging better than someone who was part of the intital pre-order?), I think Konami should shoulder some of the blame here - the out box card is thin and the inner card/packaging seems to be too thin to withstand the heavy book.

Heck I noticed a very light crease on my 'minty mint' one - in all honesty it looks like it accoured during the shrink-wrap process as there's no sign of any wear/stress anywhere else!?

you see thats the thing though, even if they were shipped properly the cardboard is soo flimsy thay if you were to pile 5+ of these on top of each other the ones at the bottom would be damaged cos the cardboard wouldnt support the weight

these will be shipped in a pallet and all the ones at the bottom are highly likely to be damaged

Konami are to blame for producing such a flimsy box for the CE. Zavvi are to blame for not packaging it adequately to protect it, and Yodel are to blame for just providing a rubbish service all round.

Today I received my Final Fantasy XIII-2 Crystal Edition from GAME - Well made CE from Square-Enix, reasonably well packaged by GAME in a box that would have held three or more, and delivered intact by Parcelforce. Now that's how I expected my MGS HD CE's to arrive!
