Yes you’ll have to wait. Before then you will have to download a patch, and set up Konami ID’s.

Just created a European account and downloaded the beta (I’m in the US). Didn’t want to pre-order the game because I get a huge discount from GameFly. They really should have made it an open beta for all regions. UP YOURS, KONAMI!

Aye, play MGS – and then sell the PS2 for a similar price to what you bought it for. I expect in the end you’ll pay less than it would have cost to buy MGS2 and MGS3 when they came out.

That really is a shame madpuppy. I believe you can download MGS1 from the PSStore - either in the US, or Japan.

The stories run in this chronology: MGS3, MGS1, MGS2, MGS4.

It's not a simple game to play, though I know they've simplified the controls a lot and even made it more action orientated. These previous games will be a good training ground. Oh and don't think MGO will be a good gage of how MGS4 itself will be.

And I don't think it's been revealed why exactly Snake has prematurly aged - I expect that's part of MGS4's story.

These are ps2 titles, right? The only playstation I have is the 40
gig PS3, I was a PC gamer before I bought an Xbox originally. and I never owned a PS2.
maybe I should borrow one from a friend and play then through….

Madpuppy: I suggest you play the series. At least MGS2 and 3.

I never played the MSG series, I pre-ordered it to get the dvd that brings people like me up to date and got that code I guess for the on-line beta. Does anyone
have a link for a good resource about the story and characters? the dvd is good but, it still assumes to much. is solid snake old because he is a clone? that is the impression the dvd gave.
are all the “snakes” cloned by the same organization? different? or disparate factions of one org?
