A bunch of books with some trinkets and they jack up the price 100%.

Hey, I gotta SHAGOHOD on my shelf now, so I'm happy.

If you can actually read the books it adds a lot of value. The art book's quite nice, too ... has interviews with all the voice actors which I'm reading now.
 
Okay, the art book is lovely, just finished flipping through it.

The small book is not really a "novel," it's more a collection of essays about the era as well as essays by the staff about the Metal Gear series. It also has some messages from other Japanese/U.S. filmmakers about how much they love Metal Gear!
 
I am quite happy with how the event this afternoon worked out, actually. You could only get One Item Signed and there were No Exceptions. Unfortunately, I had Shinkawa's but not Kojima's on my MGS3 US from the event two weeks ago, and I pleaded and pleaded and they wouldn't let me get that "finished" plus get the LE signed. In the end, I got Kojima to sign the US MGS3 to "complete" it and Shinkawa to sign the Shagohod box inside the LE, since he's the mechanical designer and all. I think that actually turned out better in the end cause I love the Shagohod and am happy to display it, and its box is big but not undisplayable. The LE itself is about twice the size and twice as thick as the Shagohod box.

Someone sure had an interesting item for them to sign:

Couldn't find the official thread, but


SPOILER:















After Volgin was beating down on Snake, the game asked me to save. I did and then after that I see a black screen, Volgin torturing Sokolov and then tortures me. Can I try Snake's Nightmare if I just reset the game or am I supposed to save when I'm in the jail cell and then reset my PS2?
 
Save when you regain control of Snake, while you are locked up in the cell. Then reset and load your game.
 
I saw that package today at my local game store. It was 12000yen which wasn't too bad considering the stand alone game is about 6000yen. It was kind of sad, they had a HUGE box sitting in front of the register which nobody (expect me) had touched full to the top with copies of the game.

I'm still looking for the MGS2 premium package that isnt still at ~$175!!!!!

Well, I was referring more to some tiny used-game shop in Akihabara or Den-Den Town than online importers.
 
I see...and they never did anything to fix it even in the US version? Such as free exchanges for a "fixed" version? But if it only happens in the beginning I guess its fine. It's only the lameass codec talks anyways ;-)

A comment on your avatar: Boda is delicious.
 
I don't think they ever offered replacements for the issue. They'd basically have to replace everyones disks if they did that since in the official MGS3 thread everyone had that problem.

While on the subject of MGS3, i'm listening to the OST right now. "Old Metal Gear" is such an awesome song. I don't know who Starry.K is but they did a great job with that remix.
