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

Hi guys,

Been lurking for a long while (so long my orginal account has been deactivated, thus the '1' lol) and thought I'd give you my story...

Ordered one of the original 4000. After the change and the lack of mention of limited numbers with the new change, I decided to cancel.

Then when I heard the numbers were limited again, ordered an Xbox copy and a PS3 copy.

Then found out the news about the steelbooks (by you lovely people no doubt) and heart sinking ensues...

Got my xbox copy last Saturday, very early I know, and of course, stickerbook.

Got my email confirmation for delivery for my PS3 copy on Monday, so should expect this tomorrow. But in turn will be gutted I'll have this opened rather than sealed (could really do with an x-ray scanner right about now).

When I get it, I'll be able to tell you if post 4000 people got a steelbook. And if it is, my xbox is going right back for an exchange : )

They could tell them apart by keeping them in different parts of the warehouse. Also,mine was dispatched yesterday and i'm outside the original 4000.

Just phone them up trying to get 10% money back as mine is damaged and they weren't having any of it lol.

Guess Ill just have to keep it although it is mint - guess I'm one of the lucky ones! Packaging wasn't bad tbh it was proper packed with those massive air bubble things.
