2 and a half weeks ago, I received my 40GB Gunmetal Grey "Steel" SONY PS3 (reasonably limited edition), which obviously
includes Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (limited edition).

I feel complete now.

EDIT: Thank you to the Admin who fixed the title. I love you.

cool, my gf got one of these for her bday today. Her dad thought it was region free because on the play asia website it says its 'region free' is this just for the games though? or blu-ray too. I'll show you a comparison,

1. standard ps3 says japflag "JAPAN"
www.play-asia.com/

2. MGS ps3 says japflag "no region protection"

Her dad is correct! It's region free when it comes to games and ONLY Blu-ray movies that have a Region all marking.

Yeah, twas exclusive to the US via the US Konami website.
But now it seems as though they've thrown them into the retail stores like, Wall Mart and Virgin (even to this day they are still over-stocked) to try and sell them off, because THEY ARE SIMPLY...NOT SELLING.
In Japan, you can walk straight into a store and buy one.
They have them stacked to the the freakin' ceiling over there in Osaka and Tokyo, etc.
A or eBay, none of them are selling...especially considering that they're 1000 US Dollars +.

I guess you're right! Nothing special about them.
Not worth it, imho....I got ripped...
