The final limited edition release in the MGS series?

Posted on March 25th, 2008 at 04:46 EDT

After huge announcements last month on the pre-order beta and last week's revelation of a special MGS4 PS3 console, yet another announcement has surfaced in regards to the highly anticipated Metal Gear Solid 4.

Gamestop has now started taking pre-orders for a Metal Gear Solid 4: Limited Edition package allowing fans of the series yet another option come launch day. This limited edition has yet to be announced in any press releases or statements from Konami or SCEA.

The Limited edition will arrive in a special collectible metal box, which will contain a Blu-ray with two Making of Documentaries of MGS4, as well as an interview with Hideo Kojima. The Blu-Ray will also include 4 chapters of the Digital Graphic Novel in addition to a Metal Gear Import Soundtrack CD.

The lucky few to reserve the Limited Edition will receive a Metal Gear Solid 4 art book in addition to all the goodies already mentioned. It is currently unknown whether or not this version of the game will include the Metal Gear Saga 2.0 DVD as well as the key code for access to the Metal Gear Online Beta.

The release of this Limited Edition version of Metal Gear Solid 4 is listed at the same time as the game itself, indicating a first for the franchise. Previous limited editions in the form of Metal Gear Solid: Substance and Subsistence, where released some time after the original release, both with bonus content as part of the package.

personally special editions don't do it for me, i know it's lame but the main reason is the size and material of the box being different to the rest of my games so it looks odd when they're sitting on my shelf. can't wait for this game though, i see many late nights with matchsticks between my eyelids from june 12th!!!

THAT'S what I'm talkin' about!!!

 

I was hoping they'd be releasing something like this, all we need now is an 'official' statement from Sony or Konami.

 

Although, what I really want is an Ultimate Special Edition with the whole Metal Gear Saga!  I was also expecting the tin box to come with an infamous 'DOG TAG', just like we've been collecting from the previous sequels!  Or atleast a 'Snake' figurine!!! Maybe....I can only hope.

 

MGS4  FTW!  WooT June 12.

Yeah I know, I already heard about the Special Edition MGS4 Edition and I can't wait for it.

I went on Gametrailers.com, and someone posted in the forums that the Limited Edition copy will retail for $84.99. The guy said that he had a friend that worked at Gamestop or something and they had just got some of the info about it and his friend had told him.

 

I'm getting the Special Edition regardless, this is a game not to be missed. I think that game developers can create more hype for a game just by releasing limited edition or Special Edition packs. I've been noticing that a lot of games lately have been released in a Special Edition/Limited Edition.
