Also,i've yet to receive a dispatch email from email,so i'm anxious to say the least.

I would put money on Zavvi fucking up my order(and other unlucky folk) and not sending me anything.

I did originally have 2 copies on order,but cancelled 1 due to thinking we'd been diddled,thats probably blew the Zavvi computers minds.

Steelbook = the art is printed all over the box including the sides

Stickerbook = the sticker only covers the front and the back

this is completely nuts - I even got a reply on facebook confirming stickerbook!?

problem is I only managed to cancel 1 PS3 order - do I now re-order? then run the risk of russian roulette as to which contains variant and which contains real? it seems it is possible that the initial 4k were real, but then why not just say that and keep it as a '1st edition sold out but we have a 2nd edition which will be different'!?

aarrggghhh!!

personally I don't take that picture of proof of anything - I mean, how do we know it's the UK version even!?

This is ridiculous. So now we can't actually return the product if we discover the steelbook is not the correct one because, well, we've OPENED the blasted thing! Really hope Zavvi have a blacklash and accept returned orders in this case.

i have cancelled mine and will leave it at that, its still in stock at zavvi anyway so will order at a later date. only thing is what if the first few were steels and the rest stickerbooks?

goonergaz · #**726** 01-30-2012, 11:15 AM

I'd rather be sure of stock and pay to return it when the dust has settled - chalk this down to a bad zavvi experience

dlc28 · #**727** 01-30-2012, 11:22 AM

Mine arrived from Zavvi just now.

I haven't opened it so cant confirm the status of the steelbook, but it does listed as a steelback on the back!

dlc28 · #**728** 01-30-2012, 11:24 AM

oh and the box is HUGE too lol

dlc, it's because even if it is a "Stickerbook" it is still technically a steelbook - still produced by steelbook.com, still a steelbook, only with a sticker artwork rather than printed xx

@dlc28: oooh, Xbox360 version, this should be interesting since we've seen the Konami unboxing video

We're all counting on your to make the reveal and put some questions to rest

The bottom pic was taken from the official unboxing video of the Xbox360 version recently released, which was also a UK version though a 'stickerbook' was revealed!

This is a UK PS3 version showing a real steelbook case!!

The pic was taken by a customer who received their order.

@V: Where's yours? Or did you cancel your order??
