MGS3 Premium Package pic...

$104
 
at least our box art is better. can't believe they made a box art that looks better than when they just went with shinkawa's art...quite an amzing feat.
 
That boxart looks way too much like the US release of Substance. I think what they have for the US release fits better the game's organic look and 60's timeframe also.

What is that book there? And is it written in Russian?

They don't say what the books are. The big one is 400 pages, and there's a smaller one (the one the big book is on top of). It comes with a DVD also that was put together by Kyle Cooper.
 
With the US market for this game (and most other recent multi-market games) being so much larger then the japanese market, I don't understand why these types of packages don't hit with the largest triple AAA games of each season. I would gladly drop the $$ for this.
 
I like the little tank they have among other things. I'm pretty sure sure a LE version of MGS3 would sell well enough to justify the costs of producing it.
 
Nice..the game shop that's like a 5 minute walk from my place should get a couple copies of it in at release.
 
I'd guess ncsx, myself. Or Ebay :)

Isn't there supposed to be a "making-of" DVD coming out in the states for MGS3? I thought I read that somewhere (I know there are making-of vids floating around the net as well).

U.S. distributors are stupid IMO to not bring Primium Pack in North America. Theres a market for those package.

It's nothing to do with distributors dude. It's all down to what Konami wants to release. The firm is one of the more enlightened operations when it comes to sharing its goodies with its milk-smelling western friends. Here's hoping... :)

Wait is this coming to NA? *please god let it be so*

nvm, saw the hotlink. FU Konami, especially when this title sells best in NA.

Konami is made up of fucktards. The US should get its own limited edition, considering MGS sells more than double than in Japan.

What exactly is in this thing?

--Game with reversible artwork. 1 side is the US cover, 1 side is the artwork from the Jpn cover across 2 pages.
--A model of the mecha. It comes in this huge box (hence why the premium box is freaking enormous [much bigger than the MGS1/2 boxes]) yet when you open it the model is actually just normal action figure size and the rest of the box is empty ^^;
--A premium dvd that is mainly just a collection of all the trailers/camo demonstration + 5 min bonus feature which I haven't watched because I'm still playing the game.
--A big black 400 page paperback book which I haven't read because it has a spoiler sticker on the front
--A really big thick art book/behind the scenes book that I haven't read because it also has a spoiler warning sticker ^^;

I'll write up in-depth description of the books and maybe take some pictures tomorrow after I finish the game.
 
something i noticed the shogahod doesn't have its twin thrusters on the models. Whats up with that?

The model in the first version is an early(an scrapped) version of the Shagohod, it seems. Eh...maybe not. :P

BTW, how big is that model? Does it move or transform or anything? :P
 
See how shit it is not to get some awesome package in your own country? Welcome to Pal territories. Pal gamers get shit on a lot and it starts with black and white instructions and gets a lot lot worse.
 
Still looking for pics of the corporate version of MGS3.

Did the MGS2 corporate version came in as only the game itself, or is there a corporate version of the MGS2 premium package?
 
Hehe, it says "Protoype" on the Shagohad box. I love all of the Russian writing in the game.
 
Corporate version of MGS 1,2,3 is a special stockholder version. The packaging is different than the consumer version.
 
Play-asia is out of stock, and NCSX doesn't even have it listed. Lik-sang doesn't have it either. Any other recommendations?

God why didn't Konami release this in the US. Or better yet, why not include it on the actual game? Make it like a DVD movie complete with all the extras. Is this a dvd you can play on a regular DVD player or is it DVD-rom?


I'll write up in-depth description of the books and maybe take some pictures tomorrow after I finish the game.
Looking forward to the impressions and pics.
 
I have the Premium Package of MGS 1 which was released here and it is really awesome. Then with MGS2 they didn't launch it which was a pity...I hope with 3 they release it :)
