So far only Zavvi is showing a new release date, we'll just have to wait and see.

Yeah, possibly an error. Though, I wouldn't mind a delay if I'm honest.

ah man, I totally missed this

I haven't really got a confirmed date change from konami, just waiting to see what's going on with the PAL and maybe even the NTSC version.

I'm fed up with Game because their useless customer facing skills (and item knowledge) cost me the U3 explorer edition (I had the SE pre-ordered from day 1

) - and I didn't even know about this until today...problem is, these things don't come along often (for me) so it's nice to grab them when I can.

If you find any going, PLEASE let me know (and visa versa of course!)

We had a news post about it: http://collectorsedition.org/forums/...ead.php?t=5268

It was easy to miss, as Zavvi was sold out within 2 days I believe.

I pre-ordered it, even though I almost never order releases from outside the USA it was hard to pass up.

erm yea ive some coming in.... if its 2012 oh well... price still wont go down.. remember 4000 made of one of the best games of all time???? i cant see it going any lower than 250 to be honest

gurpswoo1 · #28 10-03-2011, 09:52 PM

£250 is 40% less than the current going rate. They will still be expensive but we will have to see I guess.

The original PlayStation 'Metal Gear Solid' will not be included on the disc at all, you may only download it from the PSN store. There is a download code is for the West that is only available for the 'Ultimate Edition' [that applies to the Japanese editions as well, no HD remake for that].

Ok I don't quite follow you here...Where are you getting your information from Matrix? I want to know the source so I can verify this myself. So, you are saying:

a)MGS1 is included ONLY in the ultimate edition?
b)as a download code only?
c)you said "the west" as "download code" which confused me because the "west" is NOT getting an ultimate edition...

so is North America getting MGS1 as a download code too (along with the European/UK ultimate edition)? I have to know this for absolute sure.

What I can't understand is how all of you aren't bitching about this possibly not including MGS1 and how the US version is inferior. It seems like I'm the only one who noticed these discrepancies?

^Oh, we all notice it, there's just nothing they'll do about it. Either Konami have their reasons or Sony do, whatever it is MGS1 is not part of unless it's the code given in the "specialer" editions which, the US has no current release for. That's not to say you won't get it thrown in last minute. Stranger things have happened.

As for the Zavvi Edition's current price. I am suspicious on the £400 dealing myself. It's the only one I've seen go for that much. Every other one was slighty over £200. If that recent £400 is the case, why not just buy the BIN £350 listings, right?
