No guys, see, it's clever because, mooks in MGS, when they notice something, they get, you know, these large, tangible exlamation point hovering, like, mere inches above their heads. Get it? Get it?

I heard that Wal-Mart has this deal with Blu-Ray players. If you buy a Blu-Ray player (like the PS3), you get a $100 gift card.

So buy 80GB MGS4 bundle, get a $100 gift card... get a couple of more games or gear, maybe?

You might want to check if that deal is still going on, but that is what I heard.

Three days...............I'm getting my copy Wednesday night because GameStop is having a release party thing with a preview of the game at 10 PM Wednesday night. The only part that will suck is being dragged away from the game for four hours the next day to go to work. >_>

In our neck of the woods, the Bundle of Awesomeness is going to be in EXTREMELY short supply. The guy said that each GameStop in the area was only getting two, except for one store that's getting four. And you can't reserve them. First-come first-serve only. Are they asking for acts of violence to take place in their store? >_>

The Wal-Mart deal is cheaper, and I tried to get Daymon to just go for that one, but he wants the 80GB. Oh well. ._.

I am seeing in various forums reports that Best Buy will match Wal-Mart's $100 gift card, by offering a $100 Best Buy gift card.

Best Buy should have the 80GB bundle, so work that possibility. Heck, try Circuit City see if you can get another match on this Wal-Mart gift card offer. There are other stores than GameStop.

So, for all of those in the LA area, who's going to the launch party at Best Buy in West Hollywood with David Hayter and Ryan somethingrather? I'm going with some friends, so look out for me!

Read that however you'd like. I'm bringing my spoiler-proof earphones, cranking some MGS tunes to avoid the *caa inapporpriate* who are almost certainly going to drive by shouting spoilers a la the Half Blood Prince launch and the much more difficult spoil of Deathly Hallows (since there wasn't the one spoiler moment anymore)

I'm going to a GameStop party Wednesday night. I wish I'd known about the Limited Edition but I didn't know it existed until a couple of days ago and I was lazy in getting to GameStop to have them change my reservation. Oh well. I can't wait. : ( I need it. I'm playing Portable Ops in preparation.

I imagine that most of them actually kind of like MGS...

But seriously. Unlike HP fans, MGS fans will go violent... XD

Okay not really.

I met him at E4all, though I believe we've allready discussed this. It was kind of random... I was in the MGS4 line (early on) and this guy said "Hey, David Hayter's over there with the nurse chick" and I ran over to meet up with him... His normal voice is nothing like snake, until he laughs. (If you want to hear his normal voice, watch the Castle of Cagliostro dub... he's Lupin)
