I pre-ordered MGS4 at Gametraders In Highpoint VIC, but apparently they aren't getting any and I am ******. Does anyone know where I could get a copy apart from online?

They aren't getting any at all?! O___O
Are you sure it's not just the limited edition?

You can still go to EB or JB at Highpoint, then there's Target, Myer, Dick Smith, ToysRUs... list goes on. P:

They arent getting any because apparently theor supplier cant get any from konami. I called JB and they dont have any left and i doubt EB will have any. Maybe Ill call some of the orther stores.

Damn, Konami and Atari really underestimated the popularity of MGS. Never before have I seen a game NEED to be preordered to buy it on day one, and the whole limited edition thing is ridiculous.

At least when they mean limited edition, they weren't lying. No point having a lmited edition if 6 months down the track they are still sitting on store shelves.

But honestly, 20,000 for the whole of PAL is a little TOO limited. And there was no real indication we could preorder the LE, as it wasn't even announced when it sold out. This sucks ass. I'm angry again. >.>

Yup Bush gets elected President and the world is in turmoil - I believe this setting begins around 2000-2001, and completes with Snake saving the day (and world) on 12/6/08

There's a crapload you've got to know, but the game has flashbacks so that might help. Go to Gametrailers.com and checkout the Metal Gear Retrospectives.

I dont care anymore for the LE, because I have never played a MGS game before and only even pre-ordered it because of the hype. The one thing that convinced me to buy it was the gameplay video on PSN that blew me away. But Ill live with the standard, ill play it for a while, and then trade it in at EB before the 20th and get $105 store credit.

Trust me, MGS4 will be a keeper. Even if you don't replay MGS4, there's MGO which is one of the best multiplayer experiences on the PS3.

MGO is just a shoot em up online not really too different to any other shooter game. Why are you asking yourself questions? Good question.
