Published by Konami
Released in United Kingdom on Jun 12, 2008 at a price of £39.99
The White Slipcase Edition of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is exactly the same as the normal version of the game but it comes with a White cardboard slipcase with an image of Snake standing and looking up
History:
The White Slipcase edition is a HMV exclusive and UK only, it never came sealed.
To celebrate the release and the exclusive rights to the White Slipcase Edition. HMV organised a signing event 19 days prior to the release of the game. For a £5 pre-order fee, fans could get the White slipcase (not game just slipcase) signed by:
- Hideo Kojima Series Creator, director, producer
- Yoji Shinkawa – lead artist
- Yumi Kikuchi – Japanese voice Raging Raven (Note: UK version does not contain her voice)
Only 300 copies were made available to sign at this event.
Pre-order bonus:
If you pre-ordered the White slipcase edition, HMV also supplied a sample soundtrack CD with songs from the offical soundtrack. The CD came in a clear plastic CD Wallet.
Availability:
The White slipcase Edition is exclusive to HMV in the UK.
All i can say is Damn that console looks pretty cool.
I can’t wait to get mine, it’s going to top my collection.

Does any one know if the how many units they will make?
that it’s a limited edition.
For the really popular games 500 thousand (half a million) is usually the cut off point. They almost always make enough to cover pre-orders and then some so as long as you’re pre-ordering I wouldn’t worry about not getting one.
Be sure to send me some pictures when you get yours so I can put them up here for the world to enjoy
It may also be worth noting that there are regional variations, with the UK release featuring the BBFC certification opposed to the PEGI logo
**Added Black and White Slipcase edition**
May have gone overboard with the details
I would say that the black and white should be separate entries in the database
they sound like two completely separate editions
I would list them as (Black Slipcase) and (White Slipcase)
No problem,
EDIT: changed to Black and White entries, thanks for tip earlier.
Gurps maybe you should also include this. A Black Sleeve signed - ONLY 15 were available for signing at Zavvi! Beautiful. I want it!!!
Only 5 were signed by all 3.
The other 10 were signed by just Shinkawa and Kojima
Nice will add to description after a quick check.
Thanks

Other Info/Pics:
On November 8, Konami officially announced the 25th Anniversary edition and some infomation of it's contents. This version will naturally include the recently released trophy update. It won?t feature any new in-game content, but it does come with an exclusive double-sided poster by Yoji Shinkawa. The 25th Anniversary edition of Metal Gear Solid 4 will be released in Europe on November 29 for the PlayStation 3.
i wish they would of repackaged it in some fancy digipack along with some art cards or glossy in game art pics...and maybe a new intro screen and some 25th anniversary decals etc...something to make it special in your hands so you can display it properly..instead of some fold out poster and everyday gamecase.
** (25th Anniversary Edition) for PS3 added to Database **
