I also saw a video on youtube comparing steelbook vs. futurepak..and the futurepark was of superior quality..now the spine design on steelbook is more appealing, but the overall contruction futurepak came in first.

LOL futurepak is just the new name for metalpaks. And yes they still suck whatever the name. They are just cheaper and lower MOQ so the cheapskate publishers use them

The video comparing steelbooks with futurepaks was made by the futurepak company so I doubt they would have shown why steelbooks are better

I like future pack
They use 2.5 tin and scanovo only use 2.1
And my god can you tell the difference, see if you apply pressure the scanovo Ines bend but if you handle the future packs with extreme care then nothing happens at all,
Like literally you touch a scanovo and it just crumbles at your touch and not a big ball of mess but the futurepak you can use that as a bomb shelter, heck Gaza has started ordering these to protect its citizens from air born missiles, they are like concrete bunker,
You've heard the saying, if their was a nuclear wat only the cockroaches would survive
Well not anymore, the futurepaks would survive and seeing as they are inanimate objects they would outlive the cockroach's and go on to take over the world,

To be absolutely honest it's the artwork that most interests me, not if the gauge of metal they use is 0.0001mm thicker lol.

Oh and every time I see the name if this thread I get that awful 'where have all the cowboys gone' song stuck in my head. Thanks for that

That was the plan....
Oh but it is actually 'where have all the soldiers gone....' just in case you wanted it accurate while it was going round in your head....

And, whatever the futurepak video says and Lowly you have been well sold up the river.... there is no way a futurepak would withstand more than a steelbook...

Metalpaks are made of tin foil - I've imprinted my own face on a metalpak simply by headbutting it....

Seems futureshop has stopped doing steelbook, don't see any upcoming game in their website for it. One of my futureshop got rid of all of the steelbook they had for sale.

RIP

That's not because metal packs are cheap, that's because your from up the north and your proper weather hardened

But the man in the video said they where better, so they must be, why would he lie about it?
