yea that is what they said before but i don't read Japanese so can't verify but they did say JP wouldn't need to pre order to get in. I will pre order my copy on tuesday when i go to Gamestop. Just wish i had a little bit more info before i pre ordered. This whole pre order thing isn't being handled as well as it can

1.3 - What retailer do you have to buy it from?
I'm waiting to pre-order until I know exactly where we need to go to get the game early so we can get in the beta.

2.2 - @Exec
All Major Retailers != anywhere

Edit: Meaning bestbuy, walmart, target, gamestop circuit city etc. Im going to best buy easiest place for me to get a preorder. Everyone goes to gamestop thats going to be hectic trying to get your mgs out of that store on launch.

3 - Why doesn't this link to the official teaser site?
Anyway, I can't wait to play the beta. I've had my preorder in for a while and this will keep me occupied for about a week.

I just hope they realise though that on April 29 their servers will be empty. Once I've got GTAIV in my house I'll completely forget about this.

You and me both lol
GTAIV is going to be my main multiplayer for the entire summer.
I've been hoping, and I'm sure they are, including leaderboards and unlockables similar to COD4, but with the GTAIV style incorporated.

6 - I wonder how
This beta thing is going to work. Will there be like a code they give you inside the pre order case that you input online so they send to your psn store the beta? Thats the most logical thing I can think of like what they did with the home/warhawk beta.

Also why is the beta so close to launch date? What if there are bugs how are they going to fix it in time?

MGS4 doesn't come out until June 12. That's about a month and a half in between releases.

U might have to wait longer than that if you want to find a copy of mgs 2 weeks later gl.

Edit: At below 2 I think things just take xtremely longer to get passed in UK I blame your government rather than the devs. They locked up Manhunt2 for an extremely long time for no reason its kind of sad and probably cost devs a bit of cash.

How are people in the UK supposed to get into this...

Edit: This information comes from the japanese version. If you go to the american or british version, that page is greyed out. So it will probably be different in the UK.

I hope Mgs4 does turn out to be hard to find after 2 weeks, good for Kojima, Sony and the Ps3, though not good for me.

However, I'm gonna be playing GTA4 still by that time, it's gonna be hard to find some time with so many good PS3 titles to choose from and play.
