SteelBooks™ Side-By-Side Picture Comparison Thread

[DJHilalo]

I have had this idea in the back of my head for sometime now and every time I post a picture in its relevant thread I almost always post it with another country release for comparison, be it a world-wide release of a certain steelbook title or as my man FM puts it a 'Worldwide Exclusive Artwork' aka WEA

So rather than doing that I thought it'd be best off creating a dedicated thread that showcase a comparison shots of a similar steelbook titles and to make it easy for members to browse and decide which one is THE one that suits them most, that would also make the other threads less cluttered and easier to load/browse.

So without further ado I will start this thread with couple of pictures and will add more as time permits, please feel free to post your own comparison shots stating either in the image or post country of release & maybe store exclusive
