What a joke - can it be bought for less than £40?

State of the black boxes It's just flimsy card, and the way the items are packed in... FFS Sega. For £80 I expected sturdy, presentation ready boxes. Premium edition cancelled. Launch edition GET.

Yeah, that's kinda shitty for the price. Thinking I'll do the same, maybe look on eBay for the glasses later on.

Happy to have helped someone dodge a heavy dose of buyer's remorse.

Just over a week to go

Never really was keen on the special edition tbh, £80 for the game, artbook and glasses felt like a rip from day one.

A few places have an art book as a preorder bonus anyway. It's probably not the same one, but still.

Dispatched from Simply Games

Switched pre-order to SG Hopefully they send it off today. (I expect them to as they took the money a few minutes after I placed the order.)

Is this coming out the same day as God of War?

It's out on Tuesday.

Hmm, still probably not the best idea, not a lot of breathing room.

I think the people who are into Yakuza will buy Yakuza regardless. But where I think Sega/Sony have messed up is that they're risking losing out on newcomers and the casually aware (to Yakuza) crowd to God of War.

My point exactly

I really don't think it's as big a deal as everyone is making out. Yakuza fans are going to buy it regardless. Personally I'm not arsed about God of War (looks and sounds like another Last of Us wankfest) so the release date doesn't bother me. Apparently the delay was because of production issues with the tat in the limited edition

I dunno, sounds like there is a bit of disappointment with this and obviously the reviews have gone crazy over God of War.

Cracking service from SimplyGames! (Only ordered it yesterday morning, around 9 AM.) They're now my go to game joint for pre-orders.

The art book is a wee hardback thing and the game is held directly in the back of it. Lovely.

Forgot you could just continue from your save for the demo. Started a new game anyway.

First side mission I found is obviously the live chat one
