HAY GUYS

lol, you mispelled Subsistence. As for the LE, according to my local EB games they only had the regular edition listed, so I couldn't pre-order that. However, on their website they've listed the contents of the LE's third disc as being apart of the RE (the "Demo Theater Mode - Watch All In-Game Movies from MGS3 similar to a theatrical movie." is what's on the third disc, Existence).

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/259834.asp

Anyway, right now I'm hoping just that when it comes time to pick up my copy that I'll be able to switch to the LE (assuming that they have any left). Otherwise, it looks like I'll be shopping around town for a copy.

BTW, seeing as how this is still a PS2 only game, shouldn't this be in the Sony forums?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Whoa, I was under the assumption we'd be getting the LE as well. But if what you said is true then that could probably be why they didn't have it listed on their computers...

In anycase, I made a pre-order of the LE with Play-Asia about a week ago. Just a backup plan incase I couldn't find it at Wal-Mart, or some other department store, and incase EB didn't have enough for me to upgrade.

How ya doing, buddy?

Meanwhile the US Subsistence website updated:

LE packaging:

Damn, well at least I know now, I'll still check Wal-Mart just incase. In anycase, glad I made an order with Play-Asia. Guess I'll stop by later in the week to pick up the pre-order bonus and cancel the pre-order itself.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Western part of it, in Calgary, Alberta.

It's the Existence disc, where all the cut scenes were merged together to form a 3.5 hour movie. There's supposedly going to be some added narration and re-cut scenes. Also comes with the MGS4 trailer

Definitely a gem that fans of the series won't wanna miss.

EDIT: Ah, Simo beat me to it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I have checked futureshop.ca and bestbuy.ca and they only have the regular listed for a price of $39.99. If it isn't being sold in Canada, will the game still come with the third disc?
Unfortunately, EBGames doesn't have a Canadian site that can confirm this for me, so I ask gamingforce! ;P

It's not coming to Canada unfortunately. Confirmed it myself, when I stopped in to pick up Onimusha DoD.

Only the regular, 2 disc, edition is available to us.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Thank God I had a buddy preorder an LE for me in the states. (Daravon is the fucking man. <3)

They do, just picked up mine today. Unfortunately they didn't phone me about it, had to ask when I went in to get Onimusha DoD.

Man, BS how we can get the Saga disc and but not the LE.

FELIPE NO

It's a pre-order bonus, a 30 some minute documentary.

The one that's really limited is the Limited Edition of Subsistence, which is 3 discs as opposed to the regular edition's 2 discs. This version is pretty much sold out everywhere, as pre-orders (as far as online purchasing goes) for it have ended.

Actually the Saga DVD was a pre-order bonus. So you got a copy of that as long as you pre-ordered. Even us Canadians got this bonus.

Got my copy of Subsistence from EB yesterday. Though, gonna wait out and see if I'll be able to get a LE from my online order before I open my RE, just incase a fluke of chance that I get it from there. Ahh, if I had known sooner that it was going to be USA only, I would have made a online pre-order with EB way back when it was still available.

As for Subsistance, I don't know if this has already been discussed but does anyone have the SE version of this game? And if so, is that third disc really worth getting the SE version for? Just wanted to know before I went to buy this game.

Thanks ^^;

Considering what they're auctions off on ebay for, then I'd say yes, assuming that you can even get your hands on one. Truely a limited edition, the MGS3SLE is.

I think you've mistaken him for Gurlukovich. He was the one that wanted to restore power to "mother Russia." Ocelot said he had no interest: "Like I said I came to take it back. Returned, to the Patriots!"
