£80? Ahahahaha, no.
Looks like I'll be sticking with the standard edition.

£80?!
I'd happily pay about £25 for the soundtrack and the snake figure (I don't even know what it looks like) which means I'd be paying £20 extra just for the documentary I'd never watch and the special packaging. I have ordered the standard version (from Amazon.co.uk at £35) and will not be cancelling it with that price.

Hmmmm, £80 is just too much. I can (don't squeal on me) just find the soundtrack for free afterwards, i don't care about a making of and an action figure (which i do want) just isn't worth £40. Now, if all that came with an artbook and special case, then yes, i would purchase that in a heartbeat. But as is, no go.

Oh, so you want the US LE version then. We get the artbook, documentary and soundtrack but no figurine.
I really wish I would have collected the figurines when MGS2 dropped. Those things were all over the place and it doesn't look like Konami is releasing them for MGS4.

£80!! That's ridiculous. I got a pre-order of the standard edition for £35 from Amazon (the last one was GTA IV delivered on release day with free shipping). And for what, a 6" snake (lame), a documentary that will be on youtube after a minute, and a soundtrack (lame).

I'm in germany.
I think it would pretty much suck if only UK residents would get the privilege to purchase the limited edition :(

Surely this is only the first of many Euro announcements. Maybe German/Norwegian sites somewhere have already posted one too. I think the reason is it's exclusive to certain shops in certain countries, which wouldn't mean much if people could import it from other countries.

Well that sucks. Not only does Gamestop no longer mention anything about the art book they were offering before, but now we don't even get the action figure that Europe gets!

Wait, what? If there's no artbook I'm switching my preorder away from the LE. I gotta double check this...

And also just pre-ordered this! The MGS Bluetooth headset in the news a while ago.
It's real, and exclusive to game (where I cancelled my orig order lol)

For those not willing to dish out the ridiculous 80 pounds, but still want something special for 40 pounds (and no, that Bluetooth headset does not count, and it's a rip off as well), HMV.com has an exclusive sleeve for MGS4. I got the same deal with MGS3 back in the day. The best part is they'll deliver anywhere in the world and in good time too, for a very reasonable price (I got GTA4 SE with only 4.50 for shipping internationally, got it within a week, was very pleased).
Since I'm such a fanboy, I already ordered the HMV version but I'm hoping to convince my parents to let me borrow their credit card for the Play.com version (shipping is going to be a major problem though).

New Zealand had the MGS4 LE listed for about a month before both GPStore and EB pulled it, because all the retail stores got an e-mail from Atari NZ (MGS4 supplier) that they couldn't secure enough stock. Thank God that everyone who'd preordered up to that point will get the LE afterall though ^^
