As for the disc, it's probably regular PAL release that's used all around Europe as there is also the BBFC rating as well as the german. Gotta love usk. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Everybody knows Germany is somewhere between Iran and Persia. Don't lie! *_*
(Actually I stressed the german-ness of the disc due to my vague hope of getting my copy early as well, being German and all... ) Jam it back in, in the dark. These are the Books of Harrow They are our doom and our salvation Learn from them, or we will all perish |
So I pre-ordered this and the limited edition guide from ebgames the other day. The guide was supposed to ship yesterday, but it had the date changed to today (
I'll probably steer clear of the thread for a while because some things shouldn't be spoiled by faghats. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Don't worry. If people don't use spoiler tags, they'll be punished appropriately.

MGS4 Midnight Launch @ Gamestop/EB Game Locations. There ya guys go its in PDF format from Gamestop themselves, my area is on the list i'm so excited. 29 pages looks like a lot are doing it. Not only the game but the MGS4 bundle as well. Hope those got on the list as well for your gaming pleasure.
Probably gonna steer clear for awhile myself of MGS4 threads and sites, but gonna wait a couple days. EDIT: Also for got to include that if you're going to one of Kojima and team autograph signings, don't bother to lug extra collectibles around. For the sake of time and getting everyone in there, he's only signing the MGS4 game sleeves which they'll sign and give to you (totally agree with the method). They also won't allow pictures but i guess you can try and get a quick one with a friend or family member off to the side.. really don't see harm in that while he's autographing for you. Here's a picture of the sleeve and the autographs courtesy of Mattyblog, more info here. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I was speaking idiomatically. |
While there's nothing I can do about that per say, it is something I can attempt to fix if I find an offending post.
Best I can do dude, sorry. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
It's cool bro. Wasn't complaining about it, just pointing it oot.
FELIPE NO |
As long as I live I will never understand people who buy a guide at the same time as the game. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
It's not like I'm going to sit there and play the game strictly by the guide. What fun would that be? I usually buy guides for artwork and other stuff like that. Not so much as the plot and story.

Same thing for me too. I see so many people come into my store asking for old guides, saying "Aw man I should've bought it back then", so I go ahead and buy guides for games I'm probably gonna keep for the rest of my life; something of a "collector's set."
I've still got really clean copies of the original Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG and even all three of the Ocarina of Time strategy guides. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it.

I rarely buy guides, but for MGS4 it's somewhat of a collectors item for me. I'm getting the MGS4 collectors edition might as well get the CE strat guide too. I did notice it was to release before game, dunno if it's still true or not seeing one person here hasn't had confirmed shipping yet, but i got mine from Amazon because it was a bit cheaper and said to be shipped on the 12th. Of course if it came earlier no way am i opening it.
So the guide will be there after i complete the game on my own and i want to go back and see if i missed anything. I know i played MGS and MGS2 enough times to find easter eggs here and there, but i'm just now finding things out in MGS3.. for those who didn't play/finish MGS3 spoiler tag added. Spoiler:
I took a break from gaming on consoles at least, cursed MMORPGs, and i wasn't up to date to most console games around that time, dunno how you can miss that stuff. So guides will help me find anything and everything, that i'd wanna go back and do. But like i said i rarely get guides and its more for the collection and other stuff they got in it. Another topic, while they still had rumors to what Kojima wanted limited by reviewers in their reviews, Producer Ryan Payton cleared things up for everyone stating that they didn't care if they talked about cutscene length or install times, just that they wouldn't say when or what the cutscenes contained as it'd spoiler the experience for players knowing when to expect these. He said the longest cutscene is gonna be the ending. Install time is around 6 minutes with 2-3 minute installing between acts. He went on to say that the other limitations were for product placements and areas in which the game are played in. Also i'm still curious to what the "surprise" will be for people who are buying MGS4 on the date.. he said that there was gonna be a surprise and Kotaku is thinking its downloadable content. Geez the date is so close and i'm on the edge of my seat. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Bah, what a shitty time to be on wireless if it is some kind of downloadable content. I won't be near broadband until like a few days after it comes out when I'm visiting some friends.
According to EB my shipment was delayed a day on the guide and it should be here tomorrow. I'll try to take some camera phone pics of it (nothing spoilerish) when I get it in. I was speaking idiomatically. |

I got the guide in. I took just a couple of pictures. Trying to find the usb cable for my phone right now and I'll add them when I get them on my PC.
Its sooo tempting to read through it, but I'm holding back. Seeing this makes me almost wish Kojima would release a 4 series book set of the MGS games in novel form. I'm sure I wouldn't be the only person that would buy them. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Fortunately GFF is untouched for now which is why I've mainly been floating between here, a smaller board I go to and the spoiler free thread on GAF. At least there's only 5 days left. Did you get the LE guide by the way? New wallpaper: This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Is the guide in stores now? If so I better snag me a copy of the LE, before it's too late.
BTW, the official site updated. The SP Mission 02 is now online, it's pretty much a point & click with the mouse shooter. There's also a new PSP wallpaper featuring Raiden, as well as a flash wallpaper featuring Raiden and Vamp. The flash wallpaper is really neat, it's got a timer to the game's release, links, a little news banner, and if you click on the character (either Raiden or Vamp, which you can select) you'll actually get an ingame animation. Unforturnately my desktop is littered with crap right now, otherwise I'd take a screen cap. I've uploaded the flash wallpaper to Sendspace, incase no one wanted to spend the time to rack up the 30k DP to purchase it. raiden-vanp-1600_1200.zip raiden-vanp-1024_768.zip METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Yeah the guide is in EB/GameStop stores as of yesterday. Retailers should of begun receiving the game today too and one Wal-Mart even broke street and sold the 80GB bundle yesterday.
Speaking of the bundle Amazon did have it available today for preorder but the site quickly got bombarded and the site went down.. I was speaking idiomatically. |
Yeah I got the LE guide. The lithograph it came with was numbered up to 43,000. I had something like 38,374 or close to it. So I guess there were only 43,000 LE guides made. :|

Oh damn, my store hasn't yet received our LE guides; got the regular ones in today.

I saw some snaps of the LE guide cover and lithograph, looks pretty freaking nice for a guide especially among other LE guides previously released. I'm glad I preordered mine on Amazon when I did since it looks like they raised the price a little to $23 when it was originally listed at $19.50.
So what have we got left now, less than 3 days before I have this in me mitts... From the Sunday paper inserts Wal-Mart is having a special where when you buy the 80GB PS3 bundle you'll get a $100 gift card. Don't like Wal-Mart? Well Best Buy will even price match the offer as long as you have proof. Also Circuit City is giving away the strategy guide with a purchase of the game...while stocks last naturally: The Japanese Playstation store also updated with a nice HD version of the "Courage is Solid" trailer. If you prefer you can download it from the link below to watch on your computer.. 1080P Theatrical Trailer. For shits and giggles I came across this last week that was fawking cool..
