Re: Gears of War 3 Future Shop Exclusive Steelbook - Confirmed!

[ Edited ]

I believe those steel book are for mid-night launch stores. At least I haven't seen it at mine, only the Curb Stomp First Aid Kit was available and those should be reserved for pre-orders. But who knows, maybe they are hiding somewhere.

 

I guess we'll just have to see what happens in the morning. Please report back if you get your hands on one of them. :smileyhappy:

1. No Steelbook with preorder anymore

+

2. No store near me opening at midnight

+

3. No Dead Island preorder received yet

No more preorders at Future Shop anymore, because I can't trust you to follow through.

So according to www.futureshop.ca/gow3 newfoundland is not going to open at midnight, so no steelbooks in newfoundland because of that?


Hi Pstratto,


My store in Scarborough (Toronto, Ontario) isn't doing a midnight launch and we have a limited amount of Steelbooks, I'd guess that most locations not doing a midnight launch have received a similar limited amount. I'd recommend calling your local Future Shop and asking if they will have any Steelbooks for launch!

 

 

Enjoy!

Evan, will your location be holding those for pre-orders or is it first come first serve?

I just checked and Sudbury is no longer on the midnight list, so they didn't get any steelbooks then.

Only if they have any left, also a user reported that he was charged for the steelbook, so if your lucky enough to get a store with the steel book, show them the online fine print where it says "not for sale, free with xxxxxxxx, xxxxxx,xxxxx"

Already got it. Steelbook case was given at checkout, free of charge. It's surprising that Future Shop did something right for once. =D

So you walked into the store on launch day and got the Steelbook, but people like me who preordered got nothing?

 

Awesome.
