Everytime around a big release I spend hours upon hours trying to get it early but it never happens. Sad thing is that I will keep doing it. : (

Same here, I have tried and tried no luck except for Mass Effect, which I found by accident nearly two weeks before launch, and I dont have a damn 360!

WHY PEOPLE, WHY!?!?!

Knowing how things are right now, why do you tempt your luck and "take a peek" at dangerous places?

4chan and GameFAQs are pretty much "GAF AM SPOILED". Don't push your luck. Go outside, read a book, or learn how to smoke.

But um! 4chan has other content that interests me. :D :lol

Just got back from my wal-mart they said they will get the bundles with their 8 a.m. delivery along with the game and that I could come back then and grab either or. Here's keeping my fucking fingers crossed there's an idiot working tomorrow in the a.m.

To change toppics a bit: Have ever one of you guys, at least, felt the curiosity to smoke just because Snake does? Or in some way has MGS influenced you to smoking? I don't smoke, but I've tryed and my only two reason where: 1) Snake does it 2)Bob Dylan did it.
 
As of now there's only one spoiler thread on 4chan. I've seen the image but I didn't look at it long enough to actually know what I saw.

It'll get worse closer to release, but right now /b/ is actually pretty safe.

Luckily working 14 hours today meant I missed all the spoiler commotion but going back a few pages I came across this...

You have got to be fucking kidding me. My PS3 turns on, led turns green for 1 sec, then yellow for .5 sec, then keeps blinking red. None of my stuff is backed up. If I send it to Sony it will take a month to get back, but at least I have a 3 year Target warranty. Are they getting MGS4 bundles by any chance? If not, I am going to be seriously pissed. Come Thursday I will probably only have a MGS4LE and Strategy Guide LE, artbook, but no functioning PS3. :(

If they do, be sure and post, plz.

It's too late for me to call mine now, but I'll check here tomorrow.

They're always breaking street dates though , so it's nothing new

I think you misunderstand, the register LITERALLY should not be allowing them to sell the system; when it's rung up it should reject it as not for sale with the streetdate. I'm wondering if stores are getting their shipments of these earlier than planned and it hasn't been put in yet or something weird.

If you have a warranty I'm not sure what the big deal is. Not having your stuff backed up sucks, but won't Target replace it if you got a warranty?

New Mexico. You can bet your sweet asses that if they actually have it and actually sell to me the GAF collective will hear my screams of joy.

My friend lives in New Mexico! He hopes it's in his area.

Funny thing is I went through Gamefaqs PS3 area and I didn't find anything. Maybe I am blind?

If you mean you're looking for spoilers, I believe enough people complained that the mods aren't allowing it anymore on the MGS4 gamefaqs board.

The one guy, Paul something or other, is posting on some other site.

Daravon, they can override a street date "block", I saw it done with my week early copy of Mass Effect at Kmart.

Yeah but Target right now only has 40GB models and I use PS2 BC a lot. Thats why I hope they get the MGS4 bundles on thurs so I can get a 80GB to replace my 60Gb

How common is it that they ship these games a week early? Why do they do this?

Oh, damn that sucks. I have a 20 gig and have barely used the bc. GOW2 and just recently I bought the MGS box set. Those are the only times I've used it.

LOL 3 hours or so. If they have it in the morning when I check I'll be sure to grab him a copy as well. I'll PM you if I get it. If not then I'll curse the wal-mart gods.

You'd think school would be a safe haven, keeping busy finishing up my final projects and everything. But apparently some assholes are spamming everyones network student drive folders with spoiler screenshots.

I was going to save my 3D studio max project and there it was! I mean, seriously?! >:[

Yeah well at this point I'm leaning more towards wal-mart god cursing more than anything. Can't get too excited or else I'm setting myself up for disappointment.

True. But hey, there's always a chance! Only problem is, being able to survive another 6 days avoiding spoilers is going to be a pain.

Fortunately, what I saw wasn't too bad. But now I just have to NOT navigate the folders in thumbnail mode and read only MY filenames. It's just bizarre I even have to worry about that crap right now.

with all the spoilers out... it really sucks that i will probably never ever be able to play this game.. T.T

I wish I could be there every time someone goes to post a spoiler and beat the ever living shit out of them then post a pic of it on the site while logged in on their account. people would be scared shitless to post anything.

at my store (futureshop/best buy) the system will not let you make the sale until the street date in the system. a manager can't even override the system i don't think. i tried buying COD4 the night before it came out and my manager was totally willing to do it for me but it wouldn't even let him complete the sale. that's the way it should be but every store's computer system is different.

So I walked in to Wal-Mart tonight to get a Father's Day card with my fiance', and walked out with this!

I preordered the Limited Edition MGS4 at Gamestop, so I don't know if I'm even gonna open this copy of the game, but at least now I have the 80 gig PS3 I've been waiting for, and a week early at that!

My college graduation ceremony is tomorrow morning. Happy graduation to me!
:D
You lucky sob. I work at Walmart. I'm going to check and see if we got any tomorrow.

My goodness gracious, I have spent the last hour just laughing my ass off at all the posts in this topic. Most of you guys have had seriously close calls and some of you have been spoiled out right. I know it's not right to laugh, but some of these posts are just too damn hilarious. :lol

This is war, gentlemen!

We must fight for our right to remain spoiler-free. The dreaded trolls will not simply give it to us. Stand your ground and don't back down. We will emerge from all of this going into MGS4 and having no idea what to expect! Just the way it should be! :D

Well, as expected, someone targeted me with MGS4 endgame spoilers. A lot of overgrown children with shrunken testicles direct their angst my way; just something I have to deal with. Six days, friends, hang in there.

Man... my roommate just started gangster beef with me after jacking my copy of MGS1, ugh....

....and I might be couch surfing when MGS4 comes out....

Let's just say no one can have MGS4 spoiled more than that :(
