40gb gunmetal PS3 with MGS4 casing on it is fandom.
a 40gb gunmetal PS3 with MGS4 casing and NO ABILITY to play the ORIGINAL MGS 1,2,3 is not fandom.

Incorrect, you will be able to play MGS1 on it ^^
40GBs can still play PS1 games afterall..

exactly. no real fan would want something that can't play the original games.
yet, a crazed psychotic fan would buy anything metal gear related anyway...

Apparently the Japanese because the pre-orders for these special editions already sold out over there.

Ya know, even if I had the money to spend, I'd still not get it b/c its a 40gig model.
With that high of a mark-up they should have made it an 80.
Oh well, at least I wont regret not having this now lol

IMO I couldn't care if this were a 1GB system. I would gut this thing and put the innards of my PS3 inside. If the Kojima Logo is anywhere on this thing I wouldn't even use it, I would just make a hole in the box and have my way with it.
. . . I uh, get this way with only MGS games and PES games. . .

If this had been the 80GB model, I'd have paid the extra $100. As it stands, I'm going for the regular 80GB pack. Shame, I was looking forward to not worrying about greasy thumbprints all over the system.

Don't put your greasy thumbs all over it ;)
The only time I touch my PS3 is when I have to add or remove music game dongles (damn non-bluetooth crap).... and even that I rarely do, since I so rarely play GH3 these days.

I... dont understand. Why are they even selling the 40GB model? Awesome games are still coming out on the PS2! Who wants a PS3 that can't play PS2 games?
This generation is so dang frustrating. I'll be getting the normal 80GB version. Cripes. Ruin my day.

Wow, that's really crazy. I didn't notice the MORE expensive one was the 40 gig and the less expensive one is the 80. The 80 gig a steal... you're basically paying $40 for 40 extra gigs of HD storage (more than doubling your free space on a new machine), backwards compatibility, 2 extra USB slots, and the memory card reader (and SA-CD support, if that matters to anyone). I actually can't imagine anyone *not* wanting to spend the extra $40 on that, especially when the bundled game is MGS4. That ain't no spiderman blu-ray they're throwing in there.

So basically we are paying more for less functions. This is truly a limited edition. Limited in fuctions that is.
