To be fair, the gloss looks way better than the previous photos have shown off, and the black is a nice shade. The front is a bit boring but it's not bad, much better than ID4.

You HAVE to choose your language in the welcome screen otherwise no option to change once you get to the main screen. I've tested it and it does play in Spanish language etc

ok guys ... I got some bad news, but thankfully I have a lot more good news today (announcements). The bad news is that my main contact was out on holiday and I was told this would be embossed. That is not the case. There is no embossing. (nor debossing)

Trying to find out now tho better idea on the print finish itself.

I did kind of find it odd if it were embossed because the knife is huge and a huge emboss usually then turns into a flimsy emboss. So while it probably sounds cool that it was embossed I guess only emboss if its going to feel great in hand too.

As for the good news, peep the steelbook forum while I drop new threads. :)
 
Would have traded all those random catalouge titles for emboss/deboss etc on this with maybe another coverart for those finishes. Wonder if i should cancel this, how is it selling?!

I'd have taken the spot gloss finish over embossing/debossing on this steelbook anyway. The bright glossy red will still make it pop!

Thanks for being honest and keeping us updated Wreck. :)
 
I don't think any kind of em/debossing would have done much for this artwork, so not disappointed with that news.

Now the gloss on the knife really needs a good polish with a smooth matte background and that'll make the right POP!

Good idea in my book, though the artwork could have been more thought out to begin with.

I really wanted this on blu ray but i hate the steelbook design the cover looks like something you'd find in a bargain bin so i think i will buy amaray with original art for £4.99 and save £15

I had 2 on order but recently cancelled 1. Now that I hear there will be no embossing I am glad I only have the 1 on order, but I am still very excited about getting this as a Steelbook. I just hope it arrives without any damage/defects.
