What :O
What does this mean??!! :O
That shouldn't be a problem
On tuesday all Konami executives will be called into a certain conference room. The moment they are all gathered the big black chair at the other end of the room will slowly turn, revealing a smiling Kojima. The executives panic and try to escape the room, but it's look. Through monitors they are forces to watch as their offices get ravaged. They yell, they beg, they cry, they try to throw chairs at Kojima. But Hayter appears behind him and shoots them in flight. The Fox Engine was a hidden program that infected the Konami servers and made Kojima slowly CEO of the company with Hayter acting as double agent and enemy of Kojima to get the trust of Konami. All the while El Toro manipulated Konami's pachinko business to build giant mechas instead of pachinko machines.
what's a... robo-trock?
you forgot the best bit re pachinko machines
before the conference room locked, they were all laughing and throwing money in the air, seductively rubbing themselves against a suite of pachinko machines in the corner.
once Kojima turns and Hayter appears, and their desperate scramble for the exit begins, Kojima raises a finger to his ear and whispers
'...activate KonDIE'
the pachinko machines suddenly raise up onto mechanical haunches hidden in the bottom of their cabinets. the screens become covered in hysterical Kojimas. they thud towards the screaming execs. the flashing buttons all fall off and gun muzzles, blades, and waldo arms emerge.
the execs are slaughtered in a hail of pain-precise bullets, waldo arms breaking limbs and knives tearing flesh

I'm pretty sure their is only one sku for the PC version. I guess you could count the limited EU Physical PC release, but I don't think they get any exclusive in-game items like the collectors editions of the console version. It's only available on Steam as far as I know. I've been checking GMG/Origin like a hound these last few weeks and it doesn't look like anywhere other than Steam or a second hand key from the GPU vendors(that activate on Steam anyways) will have this for sale. At least not yet.

How much was it after all costs were considered? I couldn't tell looking at the site. I may preorder one if it's reasonable.
a bit over $100 including shipping I assume
it works out to 75.93 USD, without shipping. You choose the shipping method once it's ready to ship which is generally in the range of $10-$20.
What :O
errrm. I don't think I understand that smaller tweet.
What is gone beyond what point ? Life / Art way?

Does anyone know when Tesco will be dispatching / delivering? Managed to get TTP and The Witcher for £23 each when they were on offer (with vouchers also), but seeing all these people get theirs early from TGC is turning me green. Got a free weekend and with it being a bank holiday, was hoping to sink my teeth into it.
Game have already let me down with an email saying the Collectors Edition will be delivered on Tuesday.

His next tweet was he doesn't want to say more cause that would spoil the game.
Very curious what he means by that.
Or maybe a life imitates art thing; regarding Kojima's position with Konami. /justguessing

Thank you s4nic.
HOLY SHIT
I was just casually reading the spoiler thread and I didn't realize it was the spoiler thread.
These are dangerous times...
(On a funny note, I realized it was the spoiler thread only because there was a post there that read like "FUCK THIS IS NOT THE IMPRESSIONS THREAD")

My PS4 steelbook just shipped from OzGameShop. Time to see just how fast their express shipping option is. Pretty much zero chance of it reaching Western Australia before Tuesday at this point, though.

We do get Day One ingame stuff just like the console guys.
Edit: http://cdgalaxis.hu/PC/22491/metal-gear-solid-v-the-phantom-pain-szeptember-1-keddtol.html
If by "silver" you mean the Shinkawa steel book edition, you're definitely not crazy! This is Kojima and Shinkawa's last Metal Gear Solid game, and that's his best cover art ever! A must for an collector. I pre ordered it for $82, even though I already pre ordred the collector's edition. In my opinion, the collector's edition seem naked with out the Shinkawa steel book cover!
Yes, exactly this one! Can't wait to have it in my collection.
And thanks for the validation
Well played, Konami, for not releasing a PC Steelbook. Well played...

You do get them in Hungary. Sadly, no retailer ships them outside of the country AFAIK.

Did you order yesterday? I ordered at around 3pm yesterday and it was dispatched then too, but no delivery as of yet...

They do 1st class postage. Good chance of next day delivery, but not guaranteed. My copy didn't arrive yesterday when others did. Should be today.
I think the Royal Mail are anti-Scottish and the road trip up north with the packages is done slowly
They played us like a damn fiddle!
Postman just delivered the game. Got a 7 hour shift tonight though and then my mate wants to grab a drink after.
Bastard.
Not sure if sarcasm, but it's a wide angle lens and one finger is closer to the camera than the other.

Anybody ordered from TheGameCollection and got their copy in the UK yet? They dispatched them late yesterday morning Royal Mail 1st Class. They said on Twitter 93% of customers generally get their copies 24 hours after dispatch.

Mark Wahlberg has three.
Man, the one negative I can come up with getting the Steam version over the console versions is that I have no place to put that sweet goddamn cover you've got printed there

Another Simply Games order checking in.
Ordered yesterday at 14:00, delivered this morning.
That's Until Dawn 2 days early and MGS V 3 days early.
I have a feeling I'll be ordering with them again

It's on my Steam list, too. Free with the 960.
However I'm picking it up on PS4 tomorrow morning at my local mam and pap place.
What a time to be alive. If only I didn't have a gig in another city tomorrow night... I would literally play from Saturday morning through to Sunday evening.

Assuming you're in the UK, yes.
As above, ordered mine at 14:00 yesterday, arrived this morning.
As long as you order before 15:30, it will be sent same day, 1st class.

I'm in the UK my order was placed at 12:26 . I've got my fingers crossed it comes tomorrow it would be great to play this over the bank holiday weekend.

Just done the same thing, i've got all of next week off but i want as much time to play this as possible. I've ordered the steel book edition from Shopto as well so if this doesn't come tommorow i'll send it back...or trade it in for Pro Evo in a few weeks.
Where is the additional printed cover art from?
