Ugh: Metal Gear Solid 4 Limited Edition exclusively at GameStop

via Joystiq


Though Amazon already spoiled the Metal Gear Solid 4 Standard Edition box-art surprise three days ago, Konami just sent us the North American Limited Edition packaging featuring the grizzled visage of our favorite mulleted (and now mustachioed!) sneaker, Solid Snake and his arch-nemesis Liquid Ocelot. We've also got final pricing here: Standard Edition will go for an unsurprising $60 while the Limited Edition – packing two "making of" documentaries and the Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots soundtrack – for $85 [£43].

But, what's this? That Limited Edition will be even more limited in North America, available exclusively at everyone's favorite (read: no one's favorite) game retailer: GameStop. Maybe, if you're really lucky, you'll get to purchase one of their "Limited Edition" pre-opened shelf copies, with free hand grease and hard-to-remove sticker.
