It's only the J-card that is in German. Both the case and the disc are identical to the UK release.

Also, let's not forget that this is a German release for the German market. It's a little chauvinistic to expect the J-card on this release to be in English.

Welcome to the world of Steelbook collecting. There's great diversity out there if you're prepared to broaden your horizons beyond what's available in the UK.

If you peruse this site, you'll see that foreign editions often differ to what's available locally, in offering alternative artwork, bonus discs, slip cases, etc and, in many cases, work out cheaper than the domestic product. If you restrict yourself to UK versions, you'll miss out on all of that, although you'll probably save yourself a lot of money in the long term since it's an addictive and expensive hobby to get into.

There's a great pool of knowledge on this forum which I have found very useful. If you have any questions, be they general or specific, feel free to ask. There's always someone here who's happy to help out.

Hi Augustus

I think you've changed my mind on this outlook on foreign editions. The only thing im worried about is going crazy on the spending because as soon as i see something i like i tend to be an impulse buyer. But as you say its so addictive and an enjoyable hobby to get into. I will definetly make use of everyone's knowledge.
Thanks! :thumbs:
