http://metalgearsolid.org/show_news.php?id=1480

P.S. site takes a while to load.

Yikes, do we know the actual number of units? Either way, the extras they get for pre-ording it are pretty cool.

This is what the ugly ass Halo 360 should have been...

Heres the link to the actual website: http://www.konami****jp/sp/mgs/mgs4/

EDIT: for some reason it censors the word " St yle" on my link

wow... and fanboys say MGS is not a system sellerst1ka

Could just be the hardcore fans getting their hands on the limited edition bundle,wont know for sure until we find out how many bundles were available and how many PS3s are sold during MGS4 launch.

wow... and fanboys say MGS is not a system sellerst1ka

How many of these special edition units did it sell?

10,000? 100,000? 1,000,000?

I don't really see any numbers and that seems like a package that was way to good to make more then 100,000 sets of...

Can I say what the hell? :shock:AgentA-Mi6

your sig.... why is it that to me it looks like those girls are playing the master system and not the playstation?

wow... and fanboys say MGS is not a system sellerst1ka

Wow, great point, so may people have said that it isnt a system seller, yet according to this...it is

It's online preorders, I'd be surprised if it was more than 700.

I almost bought the Halo edition, that was until I found out they didn't include the game. What was MS thinking??

That they would make money.

An "unspecified" amount of MGS4 bundles have been sold, but how many?

And I thought MGS4 is getting an international worldwide simultaneous release? Why do Japan's consumers get access to MGS4 copies when we are two months off the official release date? Or are those purely pre-orders for the June release?

Not to start crap, but the fact that MGS4 is being packaged in the best price/value PS3 system to date pretty much means we'll never be able to answer that question. Who's to say wether people buying this bundle bought it for this game or that they were just waiting for a 60GB system that was packaged with quality game?

I know its a popular game, but I'm just saying.

point taken

They are preorders only. They ship June 12th just like the U.S.f50p90

Ah, thanks for clearing that up! I was freaking out here for a second, I thought I might have missed out on something big.

Famistu will give any game with any decent amount of hype an 8/8/8/8 or a 9/9/9/9, i dont even know why we pay atention to that magazine at all

wow... and fanboys say MGS is not a system sellerst1ka

Yea? Funny I don't see a number on these "sold out preorders" Who knows how much it sold could be 5,000 or it could be 100,000.

1.6 million in one day is my estimate once all the pre-orders get tallied up. This game will be huge, bigger than Halo 3 maybe even bigger than Grand Theft Auto IV. Getting my copy day one so thats 1 600 001.Adrian_Cloud

Sorry I lol'd in real life reading this.

MGS2 had over 1 million pre-orders in PalLregions alone. MGS4 is much bigger debut for PS3 than MGS2 was for PS2. MGS2 also outsold GTAIII in its first weeks. GTA is a bigger series than Halo BY FAR, this should be obvious.

there you learned something.

actually, MGS2 outsold GTA3 at first cause nobody really knew about the past GTA games. it took a little while for GTA3 to catch on.

i think the funny part is that you expect MGS4 to sell 1.6 million IN ONE DAY. mgs2 had over 1 million pre-orders in the pal regions, but how many were actually purchased in 1 day? not 1 million, thats for sure

Horrible reasoning, GTAIII was hell of a hyped game. MGS2 had over 1 million pre-orders in Pal regions alone. Imagine what it had in Japan and NA? 'nuff said.

nope. unlike MGS2, GTA3 didnt really have any successful, or popular prequels.

What does that have anything to do with hype?
Gears , Assasins Creed, Devil May Cry, Halo had no prequels yet they were massively hyped games, and had a great deal of impact. Metal Gear SOlid 2 may have had a larger fanbase, but saying GTAIII wasn't hyped is like saying Wiis don't sell.

In passing, how do you know that Grand Theft Auto IV is going to be bigger than Halo 3?

it really wasnt hyped. its hard to imagine that, but its the truth. when it came out it surprised everybody, and then its sales started to skyrocket.

Gears and Halo, yes, because they were published MS and we all know how much MS hypes games.

regarding bolded statement: what does this have to do with hype? what do you think sells games before they come out? hype

also, look at the games that have a crazy amount of pre-orders, they are ALL sequels
