My plan was pay the $5.38 for the Metallic box then really buy the game at GS,but when the lady let me take the Metallic box home..i fell in love with it xD so i wanted the real one without the "PREORDER FROM BEST BUY NOW" crap all over it but the question is..is this it? I asked the lady at BB "Is this the box your preordering for? Or will i get the real one when i come and pick it up? the problem was the lady was totally unsure about it and just said the Metallic box is First come first serve :\ (she had to call like...3 people over just to get that answer 0_o)

so my question is what i asked her..is the Metallic box i got actrully it? or will i get a real box? or will i get there and ask for the Metallic box and someone will say i had to preordered it to get it? i can always never use the normal box and just use the preorder Metallic box for the game and manual ^_^

it looks just like the real box except for the back and the writing on the front.

here's the front and back of the box

i dunno..it just seems like a waste of Matallic paper if they can just hand them out without the game inside :P

I'm not sure, but i thought you would get the game in a different box once it's released :?

It looks like you have a display box. Also cool to have

At the store, I took it up and they scanned it and I paid $5 for the pre-order they put it into a bag and I went home with it.

It's a Best Buy Exclusive. It's only at Best Buy.

I got an exclusive pre order case for a Star Wars Galaxies expansion. Though it wasn't shiny, beautiful, or very collectable. Oh, but I also got a display box for the original Dragon Ball Z Budokai for the PS2. Its this giant foot tall box.

I preordered the game a while ago from Best Buy, and from what I understand is that you will get another shiny box when you pick the game up, that doesn't have the preorder writing all over it. Whether it will look the same or not I am not 100% sure about, but what you have isn't the metallic case they are giving you...the actual game you get when you pick it up will have a unique case that will sure to be rare over time.
